How to unlock the Tread Lightly achievement in Far Cry 4 - Definitive Guide

The easiest Outpost to do this is the Kyra Weigh Station Outpost. The Coordinates are X: 340.0 Y: 379.0. Here are only 1 Alarm and the Outpost Difficulty is easy.
The Alarm Button is on your Minimap displayed with the Loudspeaker Icon. Ingame you see a big Loudspeaker mast and below is a yellow Box, the Alarm. Here is a picture of it
External image

Sneak to the Alarm, disable it with cn_X and then kill all Enemies here, after you disable it does not matter whether you will be detected. If you have already liberate the Outpost, use Outpost Master to replay the Outpost.

I've got this during 1st act, in my first outpost: please notice that you can be spotted but enemies haven't to activate the alarm.

This outpost has just 6 guys and a cage with an elephant inside.
I've used stone trick to attract the guy near the entrance, then I've find and hide on the right and shoot to the cage.
Elephant did the job.


EDIT (tnx to TinSigmund666):
you can even just throw a stone to the cage in order to let the elephant break it and do the job

Good solution. I actually just went around the back of the outpost to the hill and used the bow to take out the alarm from there. Then I just shot he lock off the elephant cage and let him do all the work. Easy achievement.

Worked great for me, however it doesn't count towards unlocking the skill that requires liberating two outposts without being detected.

I popped this achievement on this outpost as well, but I lobbed a grenade just in front of the elephant cage. The grenade broke the lock on the cage, took out a few guards, and the elephant finished the rest of them off - I never even left the hill I was standing on!

Even easier: Tag all of the guys on the outpost, throw a rock at the elephant. This will make the elephant super pissed, breaking through the cage, killing all the guys at the outpost without being seen.

Awesome tip adding the Elephant (thanks, Tinsigmund666). Just got it this way. Easy peasy. If anyone's wondering the location, elephant is in the front left. Go to left of the camp and the rock overhangs with a spot to toss the rock without being seen.

You can obtain this very easily in the early stages of the game. There is an outpost at X: 344.7 Y: 379.0. there is only 1 Alarm and it's easily disarmed if you begin sneaking around the back. Then proceed to take out the few enemies at the Outpost but don't let them near the Alarm.

An easy outpost that this can be done on, very early on in the game is the Outpost Kyra Tea Weigh Station. You will want to silently approach the outpost without being spotted. Go towards the speaker icon on the mini-map and interact with the speaker to disable the alarm. Once it is disabled, just kill all the enemies however you want in order to get the achievement to unlock.

This achievement can also be easily done in the first outpost of the game during the prologue by running to centre of the area and protecting the speaker controls from being activated by the enemies.

The Kyra Tea Weigh Station at X:345 Y:379 at the beginning of the game is one of the easiest places to get this achievement. If you come from the hill side you can reach the alarm easily. Once you deactivate it, you can use all your weapons and don't have to worry about being spotted. After you killed the last guard the achievement will pop.

You want to go to the Kyra Tea Weigh Station. This is the easiest outpost with only 6 enemies and 1 alarm. Your best bet is to go stealthy, if seen the enemies will trip the alarm voiding the achievement. The bodies can be seen as long as you yourself do not get seen. I used the recurve bow because its a one shot kill anywhere, plus I couldn't afford and didn't have any silenced weapons unlocked.

Easily done in the first act - One arrow to the Elephants behind from distance and he'll clear the enemies out for you. Took less than 30 seconds. :)

Video-guide of FarCry 4 to get the achievement Tread Lightly. For this we must release a position while we deactivate the alarm first so they can't ask for support.

I found a great solution thats super easy. In the first outpost mission you get (this is story related, I believe it was Khilana Baazar) you will see an elephant in a cage. Just sneak into the cage (make sure they dont see you) and knife the elephant. The elephant will go crazy, smash through the gate and kill everyone (make sure you sneak away after knifing so they dont see you). The elephant will kill all the enemies for you and cheevo popped. If he doesnt than just stealth kill the 1 or 2 that may remain

Thanks to TinSigmund666 for finding an easier way. Just throw a rock at the elephant from a safe distance for the same effect.

Easiest way to get this:

Head over to the first enemy Outpost (that when you get the "Welcome to Kyrat"-trophy) and release the elephant (throw stones on it so it gets enraged). The elephant will kill all enemies and the trophy is yours.


Another solution:
Stealth as long as you sabotaged the bell, so it doesnt work.
Now you can all enemies - no matter if they see you, because they cant ring the bell.
After all enemies are down, the trophy unlocks.

If you kill all enemys one by one (so they are on fire^^) but you're not redected (using noise system on weapons and moving), the alarm dont ring and you can get the trophie and the special weapon. Each outpost can be restart with the b&w flag mission in it.

I described the easiest way and not the regular one... wave

The solution by using the elephant is: Throw your stone, lean back and relax... music

In order to earn this trophy, you will need to liberate an outpost without triggering an alarm. This does NOT mean that you cannot be undetected, just as long as an enemy does not call in reinforcements by pulling an alarm. Alarms can be found on your mini map with an icon. They will only show up on your mini map when you're near one. They can easily be spotted as they look like a yellow phone box with a green light. Every outpost has 1-4 alarms depending on the outpost. You'll get an alert on how many alarms are left to be disabled whenever you disable one.

To disable an alarm, press while near one. The easiest outpost that we recommend on liberating without being detected/triggering an alarm, is the Kyra Tea Weigh Station. There is only 1 alarm, and 6 enemies in this outpost. It is very easy to complete without even being detected, because the alarm in no where near the enemies so disable it before you take any other action. The outpost can be found just Southeast of Banapur Village X: 344.6 Y:378.9 (map coordinates located on the bottom right on the map). If you've already liberated this Outpost then do not worry, because you can replay any Outpost that you've liberated by accepting an "Outpost Master" challenge with from the desired Outpost.

Note that you can also let animals fight the fight for you. If they kill every enemy for you, then you'll still meet the requirements for this trophy. This includes elephants and caged animals. Once you kill every enemy while not letting an enemy call in reinforcements, the trophy will unlock upon liberating the Outpost. You'll know as you'll get a notification saying that no alarms were triggered.

A very simple trophy. I made it at the first story outpost. There is no need to strain and kill everyone quietly. I simply went down the mountain and ran through the gap to the post with the siren, turned it off, and then calmly, with noise and uproar, shot everyone who was at the post. For this trophy you just need to prevent the enemies from turning on the siren, and not to do everything quietly.

And it can be made even simpler. First outpost: we go down the mountain, shoot the elephant in the butt with a bow and sit and smoke. The elephant will do everything for you.

If you don't have a bow or knife at hand, throw a stone at the elephant.

At the first “story” outpost we shoot, for example, with a bow, a lock on the elephant’s cage - it does everything for us.
