How to unlock the Great Owl achievement in Metro Exodus - Definitive Guide

All Night Hunter Stashes!


There are 8 stashes. You can get these over multiple runs, I got 6 in my first play through and the achievement popped as soon as I got the ones i was missing. They always have a green blip item so going for those will help. I think you will also get the
Metro ExodusLord of WarThe Lord of War achievement in Metro Exodus worth 46 pointsCollect all the upgrades for Sammy rifle and Stallion pistol in the SAM'S STORY chapter.
while going for this as long as you are taking all the attachments you find. Remove every green blip from the game!

Stash 1: In the first building you come to after getting on the boat.

Jump down here and follow the path up the stairs.

Stash 2 & 3 are both in the building where your objective is.
External image


Stash 2: Enter the building on the ground floor continue forward until part of the wall collapses. Do a U-turn to the right and walk forward until you get to the end room with a red door. There is an opening to the left of the door which when positioned correctly, you can cut a rope. Go in the door!

Stash 3:
Further upstairs you will come to a blue door which will enable you to get onto a balcony and behind some previously locked red doors. On the balcony you can see the stash symbol and to the left of it is a door you can kick open and a suit upgrade hidden behind some jars. It should be the only green blip left after you have got the ones in stash 2.

***Once you slide down a pole you cannot go back!!***

Stash 4:

After progressing on a boat with a guy, you will have to stop and clear some enemies. In the first building turn right and walk down to a set of stairs where you can see the stash symbol. Go up the stairs and turn right at the symbol and you will see a white sheet that you can climb up behind. In this room there is a spot you can crawl into the stash area.

***Once you enter the door at the objective in the 2nd building you cannot go back!!***

Stash 5:

In the next area after a long long scene with the guy you will be tasked with completing another achievement:

From the 3rd trap location, continue straight and around the walkway until you come to a room with a stash symbol on the left and a large painting on the right. Kick in the painting.

***Once you take the zipline you cannot go back!***

Stash 6:
Once you take the zipline there will be a boat nearby to the left of the only land path. Take the boat!!! If you don't and proceed too far you can not get back. There will be a train carriage that may look like it is blocking the river but you can fit through. Proceed to this building:

Behind the bookshelf and to the left of the stash symbol there is a crawl space to the stash area.
External image


Stash 7: After the batwing fight, Tom will call you about a storm, then you cross a minefield and enter a bandit building. Once you get through the first building you should be here:
External image


In a small 2 story building to your right when you enter the area is a set of 3 switches on the bottom floor.
External image


Press the 3rd switch, then the 1st and finally the 2nd. This will unlock the red door on the right.
External image


Stash 8:
After taking the blue bandit boat and going all the way through the foggy area, that you need your mask for, you should be here:
External image

The 9th and last melody location is also here to the left of the couch. Grab the red fuel can and take it to the right next to the bus where there is a generator. Activating the generator will raise the crane allowing you to access a pipe down below.
External image


I believe that until you enter the door of no return on the 2nd floor of the fire depot, you can in theory get all the way back to the boat for stash 6 but it's quite a way to back track.

Hope this helps!

Checco 87% is missing one. Maybe go through them all just in case and make sure you walk right into the room and pick up any items. I used the achievement tracker when I did it and it should tick up once your standing in the right location but if you grab the items you will definitely be in there. Hopefully it was just a delayed pop!

Is this achievement glitched? I'm also on 87% and have been to each location twice now

I got confused with this for a while, I missed the first one and was stuck at 87%. There is another area close to the first cache which also has green dots for equipment (and has a QTE fight for the night vision goggles). I kept going there instead of to the real cache which is more hidden away.

If anyone is stuck to 87%, restart the dlc with a new save slot and play until you reach the last stash. It's annoying but that's how i solve my issue. Here some suggestions to be fast:
- set the difficult to reader;
- when the bandits attack the captain, just rush to the ladders, you don't have to fight them;
- you can't skip the long cutscenes (the one when you know captain first time, Tom talks at the submarine, the captain "party") and the two batwing fights;
- when Tom's friends attack you after the first batwing fight, lose the QTE because you'll lose anyway and that doesn't count as a game over;
- when you drive the boat first time DO A QUICK SAVE;
- be sure to get the STASH 1 correctly, you access it by the entrance at the left after you enter the flooded building, NOT by following the path to reach the night visor!;
- when you have to reach the sniper, rush to the first door AFTER get STASH 4 and then rush to the sniper's door, you don't have to fight or be stealth during this section, also you can be slightly faster by shooting the locked door at the stairs;
- after the captain longest ever cutscene party, you might want to do another QUICK SAVE but ONLY if you are 100% sure you got the previous stashes correctly, otherwise continue without saving;
- get the STASH 5 in the same bulding then use the zip line and follow the path to reach Tom's explorers (i suggest to not do as this guide said cause this was my last stash i needed and it might be glitch if you skip the batwing fight, so try to stay in the intended path), from there you can see there is another "bridge" in the opposed direction of the "bridge" that leads to the batwing fight n.2, follow the secondary bridge to reach the STASH 6 and "collect" it;
- do the mandatory batwing fight and rush to the STASH 7 location, just rush without worring about being spotted;
- reach STASH 8 location and as soon as you enter it, the achievement should pop.
It took me about 75 minutes (about 30 minutes are just cutscenes btw and 10 minutes of batwing fights at least).

There are 8 secret stashes to be found in the game all spread somewhat evenly throughout so you will need to be conscious of them while playing. You can use the fantastic video below to see where each is and when you will be able to find it. Note that you will find the guns and potentially new attachments for the two new guns required for "Lord of War" so be sure to collect any that you come across.
 
Full credit for the video goes to Game Guides Channel:

~Missable but can be done via replaying the chapter. All previously located stashes will already be counted~ ~BUGGY~
 
There are 8 stashes in the chapter. I recommend keeping an eye on your watch for the green blip that will show nearby weapons. This can help locate the stashes.
 
Stash 1 - In the Very first building you come to after getting The boat. In the bottom left hand corner of the hanger is some wooden planks leading towards the stash. You’ll have to park up and work you’re way around and drop down.
 
Stash 2 - In the tall building (objective) Enter the building on the ground floor and continue forward until part of the wall collapses. Follow this route but instead of going left and heading up. Go straight until you get to the end room with a red door. There is an opening to the left of the door where you can cut a rope. This opens the door to the stash.
 
Stash 3 - In the same building. Further upstairs you will come to a blue door, go through and go on the balcony (look for the stash symbol) to the far left of it is a door you can kick open. Behind some jars (you will need to smash them) is the suit upgrade.
 
Once you slide down a pole you cannot go back. Locking out the first 3 stashes
 
Stash 4 - After progressing on the boat with the Captain you will come across some bandits and a sniper. In the first building turn right and follow the corridor round to a set of stairs. Go up the stairs and turn right at the stash symbol and you will see a white sheet. Climb up behind this and In this room there is a spot you can crawl into the stash area.
 
Do not finish this section before you find the stash as you can't come back
 
Stash 5 - This is located in the captains hideout. During Trapped once you get to the 3rd trap location, continue straight and around the route until you come to a room with a stash symbol on the left and a large painting with a bookcase behind it. Remove these to get the stash.
 
Do not take the zipline until you have this and set up all the traps
 
Stash 6 - After you land from the zipline there will be a boat In front of you. Jump in and go South. There will be a train carriage on route that you will ride through and after that on the right is a small island with a makeshift bridge going to it. Get to the very first building and there is a door at the bottom right you can’t open. Backtrack one room and go behind the bookshelf. There is a crawl space to the stash area.
 
Stash 7 - After the second batwing fight, You will have worked your way through a bandit camp. Once you’ve lowered the boat, stop. Backtrack into the building to the right (facing the boats direction). When you enter the building there will be a set of 3 switches on the bottom floor.
 
Press the 3rd switch, then the 1st and then the 2nd. This will unlock the red door on the right.
 
Stash 8 - After the fog section, at the caravan camp. Grab the red fuel can and take it to the generator. Refuel and turn on the generator. This will raise the crane allowing you to access a pipe down below.

Bug Reports

There are reports that this trophy is not popping even if all the requirements are met and completing the chapter over and over is not working. A console factory reset is so far the only working solution. Head to the Roadmap for an in depth breakdown of all bugs.

It’s enough to look into every corner, use binoculars (noting questions), and I strongly recommend TURNING ON NVG EVERYWHERE (arrows will indicate the path to the cache)

Found caches are saved. You don't have to find them in one playthrough.

On PS5 the trophy seems to be bugged, I went through the dlc twice and rummaged through everything myself and in the guides. The trophy never came out.

On the PS5 version, in the end, I got 3 trophies and didn’t get them. All the whining, the captain's approval and the blue fil. Information from snack websites helped. Reset the console to 0, i.e. do the initialization, it will take no more than 5 minutes. Enter your new account on the console, but under no circumstances go into your trophies, because... they will automatically synchronize with the PSN, but we don’t need this under any circumstances. Then install the new game from the disk or from PSN and the addition about Sam. Add-ons can be downloaded separately. You cut down the network. Slowly go through all the stalker's tricks, watch the movie and please the cap. All missing trophies jingle without problems))
You turn on the network and then in manual mode you click to synchronize the trophies. Everything you have is a hundred.

I also caught a bug on this trophy. On a foreign forum I read a method without resetting the system to zero.
We do the following:
1. Back up all your saves to USB (Settings > System > Back up PS5).
2. Delete the game
3. Download (install) the game again and the DLC about Sam
4. Create a new local profile
5. Go to a new profile. Go to settings > users and accounts > delete users > delete the main account
6. Return to the main menu of the created user. Go to the PS store (farthest icon on the left) and log in under your PSN account of the main account
7. The main thing is, without clicking on trophy synchronization, go to settings > users and accounts > other > restore licenses. We are waiting for the procedure to complete.
8. Go back to settings and turn off the network connection
9. Launch the game and quickly run through the dlc, looking into all 8 caches.

Everything worked out for me after the above manipulations.

10. We get the trophy, synchronize with PSN
11. Recovering saves from USB using system recovery.

This method is relevant if you do not have an active plus subscription on your main account. The only negative is that you will have to download the games again (I didn’t back them up to USB)

Examine all the question marks on the map. Do not leave the area while the green dot is flashing on your wrist radar. Places with these shelters are indicated by a white symbol, as in the picture with the trophy (Skull in NVG). The trophy dropped in the last shelter before the fire station.
