Last update: 09 April 2018
Doctor's Orders is one of the main quests in Far Cry 5 that is available in Henbane River region. You may have problems with this quest because one of the objectives orders you to hunt two pronghorns and a black bear. Read this walkthrough to learn how to prepare yourself for the hunt.
Unlocking the quest
Dr. Charles Lindsey will give you this quest. You can find him in Mastodon Geothermal Park which is presented in the picture above - head north from Moonflower Trailer Park. Don't be in a hurry because Charles will be attacked by cultists. Kill all enemies in that location. After that you have to speak with Charles and accept the quest.
Get the doctors bag
The first objective is very simple. You have to get the doctor's bag from one of the water bodies. Jump into water, swim to the spot marked by the game and then dive. You have to swim into a small underwater cave - the picture above shows this place. Take the bag and go back to Charles.
Hunt a black bear and two pronghorns
The second objective is much more difficult. You have to kill and skin 1 black bear and 2 pronghorns. Check Hunting wild animals chapter for detailed information on hunting. Below you can find a few tips regarding this particular hunting:
- Set this quest as active - the game will show you suggested hunting spots. You can go there or visit other places where you can find these particular animals.
- Hunting preparations are the same as always. Set Boomer as your specialist because he can find wild animals for you. Equip your character with a good sniper rifle or an assault rifle with a scope.
- Remember to sneak on pronghorns because they get scared easily. This doesn't mean that the mission will fail. However, you will have to spend more time on finding other pronghorns.
- A single shot from a good sniper rifle should be enough to kill any animal. Otherwise, you have to quickly shoot it again so it won't run away.
Skin all of the required animals (1 black bear, 2 pronghorns). Approach their corpses and hold the interaction button. This is the only way to get their skins and to complete this objective.
After that you have to head to the Hope County prison and meet with Charles Lindsey. The mission is now complete. Speak with the doctor to start another story quest.
Rewards for completing this mission: 600 resistance points.
