PAYDAY 2: CRIMEWAVE EDITION

Feel free to attempt this on any of the six available difficulties the game has to offer. The trophy will pop after shooting the second flamingo. If playing co-op, the trophy will pop for all players, regardless of who shot the flamingos. This trophy can also easily be paired in the same run with Say Hello to My Big Friend.

One rare occasions both flamingos will spawn in the same area, but typically they spawn in two of the five possible locations. Therefore, it is good to know each spawn point of a flamingo. Below is a list of the spawn points with a brief explanation of their location, along with a screenshot. From experience, they typically spawn in area 3 and 5.

Flamingo spawn 1

From your initial spawn point, proceed forward and up the stairs. Once at the top of the stairs turn right and hug the wall moving past 2 cars, towards the driveway where an escape point can spawn. When you pass the two guard shacks entering the driveway, look off to the right just past the first jut on the fence to spy your first flamingo spawn area.

Flamingo spawn 2

For flamingo two, take the same route as the first, but don’t go out into the driveway. Instead, turn left past the guard shack and face the fence that runs towards the garage near the dock. Gaze over the first jut-out on the fence to see your second potential spawn area.

Flamingo spawn 3

The third flamingo spawn is near the garage by the dock. Stand in the corner of the fence along the waters edge and the wall of the garage with a door you can lock pick. If you gander to the right, you’ll sea a bit of land that sticks out into the water where a flamingo can spawn.

Flamingo spawn 4

The penultimate flamingo can be located on the beach off the left side of the mansion. From your spawn-in point, head up the stairs and press forward to pass the shed. You’ll want to go up a few stairs on the left side of the house and hug the fence that connects to the wall that denotes the map boundary. Jump up on this fence and peer out onto the beach and you may see a flamingo to the right of the palm tree.

Flamingo spawn 5

The final spawn point is also on the beach to the left side of the house, but you can’t see the area until later in the mission. Once you have all four entry points to the house opened up to burn paintings, head around the back of the mansion to the dock. You should see an entry into a foyer with two sets of stairs. Run up the steps and hang a right to go into the room where Tony basked in his bubble bath in Scarface. Instead of washing up, head out the door onto the rooftop patio. Venture over to the corner with the lounge chairs and look towards the beach. If you look to the left of the palm tree from spawn point four, you may see a flamingo.
