How to unlock the Collector achievement in METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN - Definitive Guide

Blueprints updated and added invoice locations 9/28/2015


*Patched 10/6/15*WARNING - If you pickup a blueprint during a mission and fail to complete the mission i.e you revert back to a check point, there is a chance that the blueprint will no longer be available. Make sure to stop and save your game after picking up a blueprint. You can save by doing any number of things in the menu and seeing the yellow circle on the top right of your screen.

If you would like to check which Blueprints and Items you have then open your Idroid and move to the left tab (I believe its the "Mother Base" tab) and go to Encyclopedia. Then go to Documentation.

Each of these unlocks something different, but I chose not to include them

Careful some of the Blueprints are bugged if you get and then load a Checkpoint they get unobtainable. I would have 100 % of the Game right now - but no fuking shit is bugged.

Yep same happened to me. I've picked up Stunt granade blueprint and then alerted enemies by accident when I reloaded check point blueprint wasnt there anymore and it says that I have not picked it up. And it's the last blueprint I need. I really hope they'll fix this, no way I'm restarting the game now

-Complete all main story missions (excluding 45 and 47-50)
-Complete all the core Side Ops that are marked yellow
-Upgrade Mother Base and its platforms as you keep progressing to unlock Mission 45. (Note: Accessing Mission 45 also requires you to complete Side Op 150, a mission with its own pre-requisites.)

Yeah, that shit would piss me off. Konami says they know of the problem and are working on a fix so hopefully it won't be too long before an update comes out. I'm guessing there will be some sort of update with the release of MGO so hopefully this will be on their list.

Just so you know, you can use whatever you want during mission tasks like the chicken hat or strath camo or whatever else is available and you can quit out once you achieve the mission task, just make sure to save

question: does the wormhole fulton still count for " Grand Master Certificate (Fulton) - Extract 1,000 enemies "? I'm sure I have more than 1000... or maybe not, I actually can't see a progress for this one. :/

By on 05 Oct 2015 23:09
I would think so. Mother base was nearly fully staffed by my Fulton so for me, I used the amount of personnel on mother base as a gauge for how many I Fulton extracted. But I used the wormhole Fulton exclusively as soon as I noticed it and this was no issue for me.

It was already patched on 1.0.2, lol. I didn't have problem with that, even if I restart the Checkpoint, I could still get the blueprints.

Why is no one bringing to attention the fact that this guide says you need to get the Grand Master Certificate (Elite) item? Is it really not difficult enough to acknowledge?

By Level 75 Noob on 26 Oct 2015 03:27
I don't understand your complaint. What are you upset about? To get the Grand Master Certificate (Elite) you need to S rank all the later missions that are Extreme, Subsistence, or Total Stealth. Do you want me to do it for you or something? Follow the solution for s ranking every mission if you need help completing them.

It's all good, just didn't understand what else was needed. Yeah they're tough but follow the solution for the s rank achievement and after 3 or 4 tries, you will get them.

You can track activities now using the Challenge Tasks screen, Konami did some good adding that to the game via Patch 1.07, plus it retroactive to activities you done on the game previously.

Its glitched for me at least, I got all 27 blueprints, 20 keyitems and even the 6 posters, still nothing...

Edit: had to redo the whole game, nine days wasted for this single achievement. The worst part the deploy missions without a doubt... I guess it was some kind of error for exiting to cca without checkpoint?(because the achievement pops on the checkpoint and not when picked) Im not really sure

I hate relying on videos for a collectibles achievement. I thought surely there must be a world map online. I did find one and altered it to show every invoice location. Please use!

12 Afghanistan Invoice Locations
External image


9 Africa Invoice Locations

Use these map guides to quickly locate every invoice in the game. It is best to use the D-Horse or Raiden outfit to quickly run to every point on the map. Use stealth camouflage too which allows you to run straight into a base unseen.

If you are already far into the game, you could also go to one invoice point, jump in a box, and hold Triangle (cn_T) to bring up the fast travel menu. This will allow you to see which invoices you already own and which ones you need to get. Fast traveling is another great way to reach new invoices too. Calling in for a helicopter pickup is an option but it honestly takes more time, usually.

Find these invoices, all key items, and all blue prints to get the "Collector" trophy/achievement.

In total, there are 27 Blueprints to collect towards this achievement. Broken down, 12 of these Blueprints are collectibles scattered in the open world, while six are rewarded for Blueprint-oriented Side Ops and the final nine are obtained by completing all the key Dispatch Missions in the game. It's worth stating that the last few key Dispatch Missions will only become available after Mission 31, "Sahelanthropus." On top of this, not every mission nets a Blueprint; still, you will need to complete them all. 

In order to keep track of the Blueprints you have obtained, open the iDroid and follow these steps: MOTHER BASE > DATABASE > DOCUMENTATION > BLUEPRINTS. Be sure to utilize the video below for any of the open-world blueprints that you may need help locating. 

As for the Key Items, there are a total of 20 to collect towards this achievement. 12 of these Key Items will be unlocked naturally by progressing through the game and completing all the main missions and important Side Ops (marked in yellow text). As for the remaining 8, take a look below to see how they can be obtained.

  • Getting an S-Rank in all 50 missions – x2 Key Items
  • Fulton extracting 1000 enemies – x2 Key Items
  • Find all invoices (in Afghan & Africa) – x2 Key Items
  • Marking 500 enemies – x1 Key Item
  • Finding the first aid manual collectible – x1 Key Item

In order to keep track of the Blueprints you have obtained, open the iDroid and follow these steps: MOTHER BASE > DATABASE > DOCUMENTATION > KEY ITEMS. Again, don’t hesitate in viewing the video guide below if you’re stumped on any of the requirements for the Key Items.

If you’re struggling to find the invoices in all the outposts of Afghanistan and Africa, be sure to check either of the video’s text descriptions. There, PowerPyx has generously linked video guides for each region’s invoice locations. Once all 27 blueprints and 20 Key Items have been collected, this achievement will finally unlock.

Blueprints can be found either in free roam or during missions. You can see which missions have blueprints in their areas by hovering over them in the mission selection screen. While hovering over a mission, any blueprints will be displayed in the top right corner. It's usually not necessary to actually play the mission to obtain the blueprints, doing so in free roam instead, but I recommend you find the blueprints while completing mission tasks in order to save time. All blueprints can be located by interrogating guards, who will give you their location. If a guard tells you the location of a blueprint, it will appear as a tick on your iDroid's map screen. See below for a brief guide of where to find all of the blueprints:
  • GEIST P3: Complete the dispatch mission 'Break Through the Blockage Force'.
  • WU S333: Complete the dispatch mission 'Restore the DMZ'.
  • URAGAN-5: Located in a building close to the road at Bampeve Plantation in mission 18.
  • ZORN-KP: Complete the dispatch mission 'Defend the pipeline'.
  • RIOT SMG: Obtained as part of Side Op 05.
  • ZE'EV: Complete the dispatch mission 'Search and Destroy Remaining Forces'.
  • MACHT 37: Obtained as part of mission tasks in missions 21 and 47; destroy the enemy gunship, then travel to the location of the wreckage to pick this blueprint up.
  • UN-ARC: Located in Wakh Sind Barracks in mission 05.
  • G44: Located in a tent in the eastern part of Ditadi Abandoned Village in mission 15.
  • KABARGA-83: Located inside the most north-eastern building of Mfinda Oilfield in mission 13.
  • BULLHORN SG: Complete the dispatch mission 'Prevent the Coup d'etat'.
  • ISANDO RGL-220: Located inside the yellow house in outpost 16 in Angola Zaire Border Region.
  • HAIL MGR-4: Complete the dispatch mission 'Destroy the Uranium Centrifuges'.
  • BAMBETOV SV: Located in the easternmost bunker in Afghanistan Central Base Camp in mission 12. Note that if you raise an alert in this area, the bunker's doors will lock down and you will not be able to enter.
  • AM MRS-71: Complete the dispatch mission 'Destroy the New Fighter Aircraft'.
  • BRENNAN LRS-46: Located in the library of the mansion in mission 28.
  • UN-AAM: Located behind a desk upstairs in the main terminal building of Nova Braga Airport in mission 21.
  • LPG-61: Complete the dispatch mission 'Recapture the Port Facilities'.
  • FB MR R-LAUNCHER: Complete the dispatch mission 'Liberate the tanker'.
  • PB SHIELD: Located in either Ghwandai Town or Wialo Village in mission 07.
  • STUN GRENADE: Located in the large wooden hut in the middle of Kiziba Camp in mission 14.
  • STUN ARM Obtained as part of Side Op 06.
  • FLAMETHROWER Obtained as part of mission tasks in mission 41; destroy the enemy gunship, then travel to the location of the wreckage to pick this blueprint up.
  • IR-SENSOR: Obtained as part of Side Op 07.
  • ANTITHEFT DEVICE: Obtained as part of Side Op 08.
  • GUN-CAM DEFENDER: Obtained as part of Side Op 09
  • UA-DRONE: Obtained as part of Side Op 10.

You can also see them in this video by PowerPyx. Note that PowerPyx's methods differ from mine in that he obtained the blueprints in the open world instead of through missions.

The other half of this trophy is the key items. One of these, the First Aid Manual, shows up as a blueprint in the open world, but the rest are obtained by completing missions or otherwise fulfilling conditions.
  • Children's Reward: Complete mission 18.
  • First Aid Manual: Located in Masa Village (Africa) after completing mission 18.
  • Master Certificate (Markng): Mark 500 targets. This includes enemy soldiers, prisoners and vehicles.
  • Master Certificate (Box): Find all of the fast travel invoices in one of the open worlds.
  • Grand Master Certificate (Box): Find all of the fast travel invoices in both open worlds.
  • Master Certificate (Fulton): Extract 500 enemies via Fulton
  • Grand Master Certificate (Fulton): Extract 1000 enemies via Fulton.
  • Conch Shell: Complete Side Op 113. Unlocks after completing mission 26.
  • Skulls Machete: Complete mission 29.
  • Strangelove's Memento: Complete Side Op 143.
  • Man on Fire (Corpse): Complete Side Op 144.
  • Handkerchief: Complete mission 40.
  • Emmerich's Research Notes: Story related; watch a late chapter 2 cutscene involving Emmerich.
  • Quiet's Examination Report: Story related; watch an early chapter 2 cutscene involving Quiet, or complete mission 40.
  • The Codename: Big Boss: Complete mission 46.
  • Master Certificate (Standard): Complete all standard-diffulty story missions.
  • Grand Master Certificate (Standard): Complete all standard-diffulty story missions with an S rank.
  • Master Certificate (Elite): Complete all Extreme, Total Stealth and Subsistence missions.
  • Grand Master Certificate (Elite): Complete all Extreme, Total Stealth and Subsistence missions with an S rank.
  • Star of Bethlehem: Complete mission 46.

All of these have self-explanatory requirements, save the Box certificates. Both open worlds have orange platforms that you can enter with a cardboard box equipped to use fast travel. In order to use these pads, you must take an invoice from the orange pole next to the pad using . Obtaining all of these invoices unlocks the two Box certificates.

As for where to find these invoices, you can click the following link to be brought to a separate forum post showing their locations

Appendix 1: Invoices

You can check which key items and blueprints you've acquired through your iDroid. On your iDroid, under the Mother Base menu, select Database, then Documentation. The first two menus here detail blueprints and key items, respectively. The trophy will unlock as soon as you earn the last key item.

Glitches fixed with this trophy as of patch 1.04:

As there is a key item obtained by completing all missions with an S rank, this trophy is afflicted with the same glitch as Elite. See that trophy for more information.

I advise you to Fulton people as much as possible from the very beginning, since the key item will require 1000 evacuations using Fulton.

When selecting a mission, the right side shows what can be found in the mission, including blueprints.
In the Russian version, some names are not spelled correctly. And sometimes instead of the name they write “Weapon name”

The trophy is really glitchy. Moreover, it doesn’t matter what drawing. The bottom line is that if you took the drawing and left the mission without saving, it’s all lost. The drawing will no longer be in its old place and it will not appear in the collection either.
If you took the drawing, be sure to save it, check that the drawing appeared in the collection, then you are free to do whatever you want.

There is a bug! With the Stun Grenade blueprint in mission 14 [Common Language]. If you die after taking the drawing, you’ve caught a bug - after loading the drawing you won’t have it and it won’t be in the place where it should be.
