How to unlock the The People's Champ achievement in Far Cry 4 - Definitive Guide

As you play through the game you will unlock the arena

There are three types of modes to choose from
1. Simple 3 round survive and kill
2. Endless waves and a boss every 10
3. Requires you to use a weapon of your choice

I found it quick and easy to play through the first mode I was scoring roughly 800 points per 3 rounds with a bonus of 1000 each time. I think it took me around 8/9 matches can't remember exact amount :) if you know the amount for your current lvl just say in the comments and I'll add it in :).

All xp earned saves and carries over so don't worry if you die during a round!

The arena is located in SHANATH X:444.2 Y:611.
Thanks to Dilbert88 for grabbing the co ords!

Level 2 - 750 xp
Level 3 - 750 xp
Level 4 - 1500 xp
Level 5 - 3000 xp
Hotzoglou thanks for the info <3

This may shave some time off for those who were easily bored by this mode (I sure was) But I got this achievement on accident when i chose one of the grenade launcher challenge arenas. My very first match earned me enough XP to go straight to level 5 from level 1. Note that I also got all stars as well. The one i played had 5 rounds, each very very easy.

This! One match, roughly 5 minutes. Should give everyone the name of the launcher so more people see it.

Ive tried both granade launcher that the name starts with a G and it didnt work for me, altough I have to agree it did give me a lot of xp and I would think that this is the best method for doing this! Positive vote.

With the GL-94 in hand, I snagged a cool 1,300 points and had more fun than running the basic battle (aka get bitten by dogs for five minutes). This was much quicker and much more enjoyable, though I would modify the solution to note that you simply can't get this in one go.

You most likely won't go up more than 1 rank per match, but the explosives give 2.5x more points per kill than normal weapons, so it's still the best way to go.

@RYN16 I did this on the 360 version, I did the game on Xbox One first but this time I wanted to spice it up a bit and tried the grenade launcher challenge and it happened on my first match ever. I cant see why it would be so inconceivable unless it was some kind of glitch for myself and others.

Yep, grenade launchers are locked still and this guide no longer works. I can say though that the flamethrower was unlocked and was the perfect place to get this:

I played "weapon of your choice" with the PKM and used "knife throw takedown" (tiger skill) as often as possible. Got it pretty fast.

Just wanted to say that this is an extreme pile of shit game mode and very unpleasant unlock.

Could be worse, you could be me and spend about an hour grinding this pile of shit game mode to get to level 5, yet then get no unlock at all...

Edit - it randomly unlocked more than 24 hours later. Wish the Shangri-La one would...

I earned this achievement by downloading the Far Cry 4 Arena Master app on my phone. To get to level 10 via the app, work your way through the challenges. When you get to the flamethrower unit, Chadan, you can easily defeat him by using Army Defenders from the ranged positions and Tibetan Wolves from the melee positions on the same platform as Chadan.

The next unit is a lot tougher, so I advise simply grinding Chadan using this method to get to level 5 for the achievement and level 10 for the Bushman signature weapon. To speed things up, use stronger predators as you unlock them... clouded leopard, snow leopard, white-chested bears.

Once you've reached level 10 in the app, simply load up Far Cry 4 on your console and go straight to Shanath Arena. You'll have to fight in one event to unlock the achievement and the Bushman signature weapon - I recommend the weapons challenges since they are relatively short and easy. Once you finish one event in the arena the achievement will pop.

I got to level 10 in the arena app whilst playing the 360 version more than a year ago, but the score seems to carry over because my stats said i was lv10 from the start on the One and the achievement popped and the Bushman unlocked after playing just one round of a weapon challenge and getting deliberately killed

Did you use the right Ubisoft-Account @Geometric Cube? Had the same problem and found out, that I used the wrong account in the arena app.

I found that doing the RPG-7 Weapons Challenge was a quick way to do this achievement.

At level 3 you get 50 xp per kill
At level 4 you get 25 xp per kill, about 1000 total

Just keep doing this till you get to level 5

Be careful some players can't acces to arena after the final mission, so you'll be aware to unlock this trophie when you can.
For maximise your leveling up, play arenas from community/others players, also you have a x1.5 bonus for this + bonus for finish the arena (3 rounds), so 500xp at least by arena.
In the first list choose arena with only 4 ennemys by round and no animals (or 1 weak) and you'll get 500xp in 2/3 minutes. If you don't find easy arena, you can download the Far Cry 4 Arena app on your smartphone, after few minutes in this app you'll be able to create your perfect arena for boosting in your PS4 game :)
Ps: with lvl 10 we will get/unlock a special weapon, the best AK47-Like for me.

In order to unlock the Arena, you must first meet Noore who you meet while progressing through the main story. When you unlock the arena, you can find it in Shanath (X: 446.9 Y: 603.7). Interact with the topless woman by holding . You will then be taken to the Arena menu. The arena mode has three mode types:

  • Battles
  • Endless
  • Weapon Challenges

All of these modes require you to survive enemy waves. In order to survive, you will be challenged in a series of enemy waves, while starting out with a pistol. By defeating enemies, you'll be awarded with weapons, loot, and medkits. The easiest mode is Battles, as you only have to complete 3 waves. You will need to complete about 5-6 games in order to reach Rank 5, so it's not as bad as it sounds. Do as many takedowns with as you can to earn as many points. Use the explosive barrels to kill enemies much more efficiently. Even if you die, you'll be awarded with whatever Arena XP you have earned. Upon completing a game, you'll level up. When you reach rank 5, the trophy will unlock. There is no quick way to do this but rank 5 won't take you very long, just keep surviving for as long as you can and getting kills via takedowns to maximize points per game.

There is also an IOS / Android app that can help you with this trophy. There is a few apps on the store, but this is the one you are looking for:

The app is free so it will not cost you anything. However, in order to reap the rewards from this app you need to link your Uplay account within the app. This is done by tapping the U icon on the menu. Once you have linked it, any further things you do within the app will level your arena rank up. The aim of the game is to simply send units into battle and have them fight other enemies. It's a strategy game, so if that's your kinda thing you may want to consider getting to rank 5 by using this app. The game has many tutorials to get you started, and it is overwhelming at first but once you get used to it you'll be ranking up in no time. When in battle, simply select a unit at the bottom, and then touch a circle on the screen. This will spawn in whatever you selected, and it will fight the enemies for you. Be strategic with where you place your units, and what units to place and you will win the fight.


(The image above shows what the arena screen looks like).

The trophy can be obtained when we open the Arena during the campaign. The location is called “Shanat”.

We approach a pleasant-looking girl and fight until she receives rank 5. 3 modes: battle, endless mode, challenges.

Easy farm without hemorrhoids with a mobile application (authorization no longer works). 3 rounds at the Shanata Arena. We try to kill everyone mostly with quick kills (accordingly, you need to unlock skills for quick kills)

If you earn a rank through a mobile application, still look into the arena, without this the trophy will not drop.

Enter any mode and you can die almost immediately: even ten points earned is enough for you to get a trophy.

I went through several rounds, soaking everyone in hand-to-hand combat, reached level 10, and had to re-login to get the trophy.

For those who are unable to synchronize ranks in the application and game:
- let the application be turned on, active (on the tablet)
- play in the arena 1 time (on PS4) - not sure if this should be done
- close the game (on PS4)
- reboot the console (PS4)
- launch the game (on PS4)
- play in the arena 1 time (on PS4)

For those who have difficulty finding the Arena Master application. Today it has been removed from iOS. It’s also not trivial to find in Android. The following method helped. On an Android device, open Chrome, search for Aptoide, install, search for Aptoide and find Far Cry Arena Master.
With the app it was very quick to get to level 10 (I needed the Bushman weapon, I completed the game 100%), without the app it took too long and monotonous to get to level 10.

I’ll add a little - if you use the application and reach the rank you need, you don’t have to win in the arena. Just go in and immediately lose the battle - you will still get the trophy

Rank 5 can be achieved very quickly using the application for iOS or Android - far cry arena master. If you go to Uplay in the application, and also play Far Cry 4 in online mode, with Uplay active, then the resulting rank in the application will become the same rank in the game. To do this, you need to re-enter the game with the 5th ragn in the application and fight 1 battle in the arena. then you will get the trophy.

p.s. You can also easily get the special weapon “Bushman”, which is given after rank 10 in the arena.

It is better to go into the arena with open skills with a variety of killing sprees, and when enemies come out of the doors, try to run immediately towards them, pressing against the wall, so they will run out with their backs to you and with a good location, you can kill them all in a series or kill them one by one from the back and suddenly throw them knife(R3- )or if you openly cut with skill and pull out the pin of a grenade and push him towards the enemy, you can easily kill a heavy one by pushing a kamikaze at him. By the way, it’s easy to kill a heavy one by jumping from above, luring him to the hill where you are standing. In this way I scored 2500- 3000 points taking into account all bonuses. Yes, I lured animals onto barrels and blew them up. This is all in the Battle-Battle-Arena mode Shanat

I was able to type the fastest in the following mode.

Battles -> Battles -> Shanata Arena

There are only three simple rounds in this mode. For which we are given, including bonuses of 1000 experience points or more.

We try to move around the perimeter of the arena as much as possible. Along with blue smoke there will be cartridges, with orange - throwing weapons (Molotovs, grenades, knives), with green - medical syringes. We collect weapons from fallen enemies.

Only in the third round will one heavy machine gunner appear, whom we burn with a molotov.

For the third rank you need to score 1000 points, for the fourth 1500, for the fifth - 3000. I don’t remember the first and second, but the maximum there is 1000 points. In total, to get the fifth rank we need to score 6.5 thousand, and this is a maximum of 6 fights.

According to the plot, you will find yourself in the arena and take part in the “performance” there, so you will already know what to do there. Next, you can return to point X: 444 Y: 610 and run 3 types of competitions as many times as you like (Battles, Endless , Tests). The more active and competent you fight, the faster the “rank” scale fills (in the upper-right corner in the “arena” menu). Upon reaching rank 5, the trophy will drop. It was most convenient for me to fill out the scale during the “Battle” competition.
