How to unlock the Sniper Suppressor achievement in Mad Max - Definitive Guide

As you explore the territories and reveal the map using Vantage Outposts you will locate Snipers (usually on towers) that you can kill using your Sniper Rifle or by destroying their tower with the Harpoon, Thunderpoon or by nitro-boosting into it. Snipers will appear on the map once discovered and you can see how many remain to be destroyed in each region by placing the map cursor over the region in question. Note that there are challenges associated with destroying large sniper towers so be sure to pull them down whenever you encounter one.

Once you destroy all Sniper towers in all regions, the trophy will unlock.

Scrotus snipers are one of the multiple forms of threat you'll find all around the map. They are always in little towers by themselves. Note that only the snipers marked on your map with the red threat diamond need to be taken out for this achievement. You'll come across many other snipers around camps and scavenging locations and such. These snipers have nothing to do with any achievements, so feel free to ignore them.

The only way to get snipers marked on your map aside from aimlessly driving around until you drive near one is to mark them when in the balloon at the region's Vantage Outpost. They are typically easy to spot so you'll likely mark them all without issue as you complete all Vantage Outposts. If you're missing any, refer to THESE IMAGES over on Steam that show all threat marked in all regions.

In terms of actually taking out the snipers, you can pull their towers down with the harpoon, ram the tower, shoot the tower with the Thunderpoon, shoot the sniper with your sniper rifle, or shoot the sniper with the harpoon and yank him down. Since every single Scrotus sniper tower in the game is a weak tower, the most efficient way is to simply shoot the tower with your harpoon and drive away to pull it down, or if you manage to shoot the sniper, press to yank him down.

A fairly simple trophy. You need to destroy the snipers who are located separately, just sitting in the towers. Those snipers who are at enemy bases do not count. The easiest way to kill a sniper is to create a sniper rifle (get it in the story) and kill them from a long distance. You can also simply throw them off the tower using a harpoon.

The trophy is buggy!!! I completely cleared the territory of snipers, an inscription appeared that the test to kill all the Slam snipers was completed, but the achievement was not counted, and the test itself was not included in either the completed or general tests. I checked the saves at the very beginning of the game - there is a test, but in later saves it is missing

Maybe someone, like me, will confuse this achievement with the “winner” test (destroy 10 large sniper towers). Even if this test doesn’t apply to the achievement, I thought it did and looked for the answer here. I'll leave it here. Large towers are those that are supported by ropes on several sides. Mostly they are near the camps. I usually killed snipers with a rifle, then I had to look for these towers and destroy them. I hope it helps someone.
