Follow our detailed walkthrough for 'The Quality of Mercy' mission in Far Cry 5. Learn how to infiltrate John Seed's bunker, rescue Deputy Hudson, and escape.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Begin the mission after finishing 'Wrath' and obtaining the key to John's Bunker. Travel to the bunker in the northwest of Holland Valley.
  2. 2
    Approach from the east, scout with binoculars, and eliminate the Marksman with a Rocket Launcher on the roof. Enter through a broken fence, take out two cultists, drop down a ladder, and eliminate four more. Loot bodies for ammo.
  3. 3
    Open the door into the bunker and descend the stairs. Use a Proximity Explosive to neutralize the group of six cultists at the bottom, then pick off any survivors. Continue to the blast door at the end.
  4. 4
    Proceed stealthily. At the stairs, crouch behind a crate and take down the cultist facing the entrance with a silenced weapon. Throw a Proximity Explosive into the entrance to deal with the next group, then finish off any remaining enemies.
  5. 5
    Continue through the next door and sneak up on the lone guard. In the following corridor, sneak to the middle, take out the hiding cultist with a silenced weapon, and then throw an explosive into the corridor ahead to eliminate most of the next group.
  6. 6
    Continue down the corridor, go left to eliminate two cultists, and enter the door leading downstairs. Follow the linear path to reunite with Deputy Hudson.
  7. 7
    After reuniting, follow Hudson back to the control room. She will stay there while you rescue the hostages.
  8. 8
    Exit the door and engage a large group of cultists, including a sniper. Use cover and explosives to clear the area. Only after all cultists are eliminated, liberate the prisoners from their cells.
  9. 9
    Find the control room by following the prisoners and entering the Silo. Turn right, drop down, and take the right path in the corridor.
  10. 10
    Shoot the consoles or use explosives to destroy them, taking out cultists simultaneously. Return to the Silo and defeat the cultists rushing you.
  11. 11
    Climb the Silo: head around the back to the first platform. Jump onto the next platform released by Hudson. Shoot the hinges on the subsequent platform to lower it. Climb higher, wait for Hudson to release more platforms, and take them around and up. Climb again, then shoot the hinge above and to your left to reach the exit.
  12. 12
    Immediately upon exiting the Silo, engage the cultists. Destroy all Bliss containers and barrels in the following rooms to trigger an explosion and the need to escape.
  13. 13
    Enter the large area, pick off enemies while avoiding fire, and use explosives. Operate the two switches on either side of the room.
  14. 14
    Survive until the helicopter arrives. Stand under it, use the grapple, and escape the bunker.
Tips
  • Stock up on ammo and Med Kits before starting the mission.
  • Approach the bunker from the east and scout from a high vantage point.
  • Utilize Proximity Explosives for large groups of enemies inside the bunker.
  • Maintain stealth as much as possible, especially when dealing with the initial groups of cultists.
  • Use cover effectively when engaging the large group of cultists after liberating the prisoners.
  • During the escape sequence, keep moving and use the environment to your advantage.
  • Focus on operating the switches and then surviving until the helicopter arrives; ignore other objectives during the final escape.
