Guide to Far Cry 4's 'The Valley of Death (A)' mission. Learn how to stop Pagan Min's artillery attack on Utkarsh and secure the cannons.

Alright, so you've chosen Amita to lead the Golden Path and just finished up 'Culture Wars'. Now it's time for a real emergency: 'The Valley of Death (A)'. Pagan's about to blast Utkarsh off the map with artillery, and we need to stop him, like, yesterday. You'll see a health bar for Utkarsh at the top of your screen, so you know how much time you've got.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    When you arrive, you'll need to clear the town of enemies. Keep an eye out for two snipers: one is in a tower at the far end of town, and the other is on a ledge to your left. It's best to take them out early, especially the one on the ledge, as you'll likely be near the first artillery cannon on your right.
  2. 2
    Deal with the enemies hanging around the first cannon. Once they're gone, you'll have secured that cannon, and it won't fire anymore.
  3. 3
    Head to the entrance of the town and meet up with the sappers. They'll handle disabling the other two cannons by destroying them.
  4. 4
    For the first cannon the sappers are working on, you can hop on a mounted grenade launcher. This will help you take out a bunch of enemies, including some vehicles and even a helicopter.
  5. 5
    Heads up: When you see a countdown timer appear, that means the cannon is about to blow. If you're anywhere near it, get clear!
  6. 6
    For the remaining two cannons, you'll have to ditch the grenade launcher and proceed on foot. Expect some tougher enemies to show up, including a helicopter and maybe a Heavy or two.
  7. 7
    Once the last cannon is destroyed, you'll have successfully completed the mission. Good job!
Tips
  • Focus on taking out the snipers early. They can be a real pain if you let them pick you off while you're trying to deal with the cannons.
  • Use the mounted grenade launcher to your advantage for the first cannon. It makes dealing with the larger groups of enemies and vehicles much easier.
  • Be aware of your surroundings, especially when a cannon is about to be destroyed. Don't get caught in the blast!
