How to unlock the Like A Bird achievement in Far Cry 4 - Definitive Guide
Buy the Wingsuit on any Weapon Locker or Merchant for $25000 and every Time you fall down, use it with
Boosting Method:
Fast travel to the Outpost called Khilana Bazaar (X: 299 Y: 426) Use the Buzzer here and fly to the Bell Tower (X: 272.4 Y: 443.7) in the near. Land on the highest Plattform (next-to-last is the highest) and jump down in the direction of the lake, open immediately after take-off the wingsuit with LS and fly down. Before you land use the Parachute for a safe landing, then fast travel back to the outpost and repeat the Steps. You will need 15-20 Minutes for all 5000 Meter.
Fast Travel to Khilana Bazaar which is directly east of Banapur (1st Trading Post you find in the story).
Go out of the building and turn right and go up the hill to find the Buzzer (Helicopter).
Press to get in and then to get altitude, while pushing forward until you see a large building below you. By this time if you have kept your finger on you will hear an alarm.
As the alarm goes off press to jump out of the Buzzer then quickly press to use your Wingsuit. Aim for the water that you can see in front of you and glide as far as possible. You don't need to use the Parachute as landing in water does not kill you.
Once you hit the water press to get the Map back up and repeat.
It took me about 10 minutes and 5 or 6 jumps. Enjoy
There are some places that have a gyro(varshakot, khilanabazaar and some more places).
I put this message up for extra info on how you can also do this without doing it from some vantagepoint.
The very last mission that Yogi & Reggie (the "Y" missions) give you drops you from a freaky high starting point (You can't see anything you are so high) into a lake. If you finish this mission, and DO NOT get a checkpoint, every time you die you will respawn at this freaky high start point.
So just repawn, glide for almost 2000m into the ground, then repawn until the achievement pops.
This is also really fun.
P.S. Don't glide near Outposts. This will sometimes activate an "Outpost Under Attack" side mission. This will screw it up.
First, make sure you observe which way to jump that will give you the furthest distance.
This way it saves having to waste time doing rinse and repeat methods as you're getting the distance via playing Bell Tower missions.
Edit: like CrucialVelocity said in comments, its a mission later in the game you need to fly 1000-2000m with wingssuit. This mission start at airport on north's map. It will be effective to use my trick after completing that mission.
Later on in the game, you can buy the Wingsuit from the Trading Posts, it can be found at the bottom of the "Items" tab and it costs 50,000R. The Wingsuit is essentially a glider, but one you can use at any time. You just need to jump off a cliff or high spot and you will get a prompt saying " Wingsuit". If you press that, you will activate your Wingsuit and be able to glide, much like how the glider works. When you get low to the ground, another prompt will come up saying to press to use the parachute.
If you don't have this trophy by the time you complete the game, an easy way to farm it is by jumping off the cliff by the "Ghale Homestead" (X:521 Y:577) over and over. If you go behind the tent where Yogi & Regi where staying there is a sheer drop down towards the forest below. You can jump off here and get a good few hundred meters before you need to parachute. You fly a few thousand meters as part of the story missions, so it won't take you long. Once you land, simply fast travel back to the homestead again, and jump off. Repeat until the trophy unlocks.
(The image above shows exactly where the aforementioned cliff is).
There will be about eight such visits in total.
We buy a helipad (300k) from the Gayles’ house, take off to the maximum height and jump. Repeat as many times as necessary. Profit
