Discover the incredible vantage point on the Rough Landing railway bridge in Sniper Elite 5 that lets you take out all three Stone Eagles without moving an inch. Follow our guide!
Alright, so you're tackling the 'Rough Landing' mission in Sniper Elite 5 and you've heard about these Stone Eagles? They're basically little Nazi symbols scattered around the map that you can shoot for extra challenge. Now, this map has a pretty cool centerpiece: a big railway bridge. What's wild is that Rebellion designed it so you can actually hit all THREE Stone Eagles from the *exact same spot* on this bridge. Yeah, you read that right. It feels a bit like a secret, maybe not what they originally intended, but hey, we'll take it! Let's go find these birds.
- 1First things first, you need to make your way to the Railway Bridge. Clear out any guards you encounter along the way – you want to have a clear shot and some peace once you get to your vantage point.
- 2Once you're on the bridge and have secured the area, you've got all the time in the world to line up your shots. The first Stone Eagle is practically right beneath you. Look for a section where you can peer through a gap *under* the bridge. You should spot it hiding amongst some bushes down there. Use your scope to get a good lock, aim for the back of its head, and take it out.
- 3Now, here's the awesome part: without moving an inch from your current spot, you can target the second Stone Eagle. Keep facing the same direction you were for the first shot. Look towards the Church in the distance. To the *right* of the church, you'll see a house. Your target is on the far side of this house's rooftop. It can be a bit tricky to spot, so use your binoculars or rifle scope and scan along the lower part of the rooftop. Keep at it until you get the 'tagged' notification, then line up your shot and take it down.
- 4For the third and final Stone Eagle, you can still use this same incredible spot. This one can be a bit finicky, so you'll need to be precise. Check the first screenshot in the original guide to see the exact area on the bridge you need to aim through. Your best bet is to use the slightly leaning fir tree as a visual guide. Scope around the branches of that tree, looking for the specific spot shown in the screenshot. Make tiny adjustments until you get the tag, then take your shot.
And that's it! All three Stone Eagles eliminated from a single, perfect position on the railway bridge. Pretty neat, huh?
- Don't rush getting to the bridge; take out any guards quietly to avoid alerting others and making your sniping spot harder to secure.
- If you're struggling to spot an Eagle, zoom in with your scope and slowly pan across the area. Sometimes a slight change in angle is all it takes.
- The game often gives you a subtle audio or visual cue when you're close to tagging a collectible, so pay attention to those.
