Learn the best ways to take down the three armed convoys in Far Cry 5's Holland Valley. Get tips on using planes, explosives, or RPGs to complete this side mission.
Alright, so you've stumbled upon the 'Valley Armed Convoy' side mission in Far Cry 5. Basically, John Seed's goons have got three trucks rolling around, each with a mounted machine gun. Your job is to take 'em all out. You're free to tackle this however you want, but I've got a few tricks up my sleeve that make it way easier.
- 1The Easy Way (If You've Done Nick Rye's Missions): If you've completed Nick Rye's missions, you've got a serious advantage. You can grab the Carmina plane (it's free if you got it from the 'Air Raid' mission) and spawn it at either Seed Ranch or Rye & Sons Aviation. From the air, you can either do strafing runs with the plane's machine gun or drop bombs. Strafing runs are a bit trickier but less likely to miss. Dropping bombs is faster if you're confident with your aim.
- 2Explosives Galore: Not a fan of flying? No problem. You can head to each convoy's general location and set up a trap. Lay down some controlled explosives along the road, wait for the truck to get close, and BOOM! You might need to pick off any stragglers that survive the initial blast.
- 3Go Loud with an RPG: For the pure chaos lovers, just grab an RPG-7 and go to town. Find a good vantage point, lock on, and let loose with rockets. It's direct, brutal, and gets the job done.
- The Carmina plane is a fantastic free asset if you've progressed through Nick Rye's storyline.
- If you choose the explosives route, make sure you're well-hidden after setting the charges. You don't want to be caught in your own blast!
- There's no specific order to take out the convoys, so pick the method that suits your playstyle best for each one.
