Missing in Action in Whitetail Mountains Far Cry 5 Guide and Walkthrough
Last update: 29 March 2018
Missing in Action is one of the quests in Far Cry 5 that is available in Whitetail Mountains. It becomes available after escaping from Jacob Seed's trap in The World is Weak quest. Your goal is to rescue two groups of hostages.
Reach the first group of hostages
Eli Palmer in Wolf's Den, located in the western part of Whitetail Mountains, will give you this quest. You reach that hideout automatically after escaping from Jacob and the cultists during The World is Weak quest (the walkthrough for that quest can be found on the previous page).
The objective is to free prisoners. Head to Visitor's Center. That location has 4 hostages. Try to be stealthy (use, e.g. a silenced sniper rifle, a crossbow, Peaches or takedowns; you can also reach the objective fast by going through the big pipe). Alarmed cultists can start killing the hostages. Secure the place and find the hostages.
Reach the second group of hostages
The mission isn't over - the second group of hostages is kept in Hawkeye Tunnel. Reach that place by crossing the drawbridge.
Don't try to enter the tunnel - you would be shot by a sniper and other enemies. Choose the left mountain path. You reach a small vantage point (the picture above). Here you can plan your next steps, give orders to your specialists or attack the enemies. Remember to kill cultists fast if they raise an alarm because they can kill the hostages. The quest ends when you rescue both groups and kill all the cultists near the tunnel.
Rewards for completing this mission: 600 resistance points.
