How to unlock the Fixer-Upper achievement in Far Cry 4 - Definitive Guide
1) You have progressed through the campaign enough to have a green 'Y' appear on your map and have gone there to meet Yogi and Reggie for the first time. This meeting ties in with a mission for the campaign so I don't believe this is missable.
2) You have visited them a second time and you have completed the mission they give you. You will earn this achievement after finishing;
At this point you are able to purchase upgrades for the Ghale Homestead from the caretaker outside the house. The upgrades you can purchase are as follows;
Water Faucet - 25,000 Rupees - Body armour can be found here
Trading Post - 50,000 Rupees - Allows you to buy ammo/weapons and sell your unwanted items
Exterior Upgrade - 75,000 Rupees - Fully repairs the exterior of the house
Interior Upgrade - 100,000 Rupees - Fully repairs the interior of the house
Moonshine Kit - 125,000 Rupees - Will always have some Molotovs available for you to pick up
Interior Lighting - 150,000 Rupees - Installs lamps to brighten the house up
Tree Decorations - 175,000 Rupees - Sacred tree decorations, money can be found here
Pinfold - 200,000 Rupees - Adds pigs to the Homestead, you can also pick up throwing knives from here
Garden - 300,000 Rupees - Will add a selection of plants, very helpful if you require some leaves to craft syringes with
Buzzer - 400,000 Rupees - Your very own door buzzer!
Shrine - 500,000 Rupees - A small personal shrine, money can be found here
Purchasing any three of the above will earn you the Fixer-Upper achievement.
EDIT[1]: Thanks to TheDude722 for notifying me that if you have a karma level of 7 or higher you get a 25% discount off each item.
I'll update the solution, thanks for letting me know :)
The homestead is your house in the game and you will first see it when you do a mission for Yogi & Regi, who have been living in it. You can buy upgrades for it when you get further into the story. The homestead can be found at X:520 Y:577 and you can fast travel to it. For this trophy, you need to purchase 3 upgrades. A list of all the available upgrades is as follows (the costs are subject to the skill to reduce trader prices):
- Water Faucet | Cost: 25,000R
- Trading Post | Cost: 50,000R
- Exterior Upgrade | Cost: 75,000R
- Interior Upgrade | Cost: 75,000R
- Moonshine Kit | Cost: 93,750R
- Interior Lighting | Cost: 112:500R
- Tree Decorations | Cost: 131,250R
- Pinfold | Cost: 150,000R
- Garden | Cost: 225,000R
- Buzzer | Cost: 300,000R
- Shrine | Cost: 375,000R
You need to buy any 3 of these upgrades for the trophy. The most useful upgrade is the garden, and the trading post. The garden contains every plant in the game and you can make them respawn by fast travelling away from the homestead, then back again. This is useful for the trophy that requires you to craft 15 syringes. The trading post will make things easier for if you ever need ammo, or want to change your guns. You may as well buy the Water Faucet as it is the cheapest item to buy. If you don't care about the items and the benefits some of them bring, then simply buy the first 3. In total that will cost you 150,000R. Once you have bought 3 the trophy will unlock.
Another important point. If we plan to upgrade our house to the fullest, it is better to do this when we earn the 7th rank of karma, then all the improvements will cost us 25% less.
