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.
