How to unlock the Woman of the People achievement in Rise of the Tomb Raider - Definitive Guide

This is not a solution, as the solution above covers everything, this is a tip. If you are stuck having the "Gulag Recon" mission not working and it is the last mission you need, where you can't return the items to the guy, which has happened apparently to a lot of people, me included, then uninstall the game (NOT your game save) and disconnect from online. Install the game and play it while offline and return to the guy and the mission will complete. When you reconnect to online this will pop. The problem apparently is the patch that was installed and uninstalling the game does the trick to overcome this glitch.

Unfortunately, no this wouldn't work for digital, since if you deleted it and re-downloaded it would apply the update patch with the download/install.

Thank you for posting this, I also have a digital copy so I guess i'll just have to hope they patch it(sooner rather than later), unless I find a cheap physical copy...

I can finish this last mission after the main story as of today. I have digital copy with latest update. So the issue seems to have been resolved.

That's odd, I don't know why it would do that. Everyone else I have talked to about this, it worked fine.

This only works with the disc version. The digital version if you uninstall then re-download it installs the updates with it.

I don't understand why the save wouldn't read right offline.

it is weird because I can load up another save offline and it loads fine, but not the save I'm at 99%

Yeah, that is weird that it wouldn't read the save unless you are online.

that looks like a missing file but I can't understand how a file could be missing from the install on an XBOX game.

I have the digital version so I'm happily killing muself with this. Nowadays I still can't complete this mission and a Tomb is glitched as well so... I'm already planning to delete my whole savefile and start a damn new playthrough.

And about the errors you all say, it may be related with that the savegame has info with newer data than the "retailed" disc file so I guess the error comes from there.

Sorry to hear people are having issues with this mission. I got it done yesterday with no problems. Disc version & my order of missions was all over the place. Would of expected this nonsense from the 360 version.

The achievement worked for me this week without doing anything in any specific order. Maybe there has since been a patch to resolve the problem?

There are 9 missions needed to get this achievement; 5 in Soviet Installation and 4 in Geothermal Valley.

The one called "Ancient Secrets" requires you to complete 9 optional challenge tombs across the entire map. By the time you get to Geothermal Valley, you will be able to get 8 challenge tombs. You have to progress through the story to the Lost City in order to complete the 9th challenge tomb. You can then fast travel back to the "Ancient Secrets" mission giver and get the achievement.

Soviet Installation:
Communications Breakdown
Dangerous Territory
Gulag Recon
The Unlucky Ones
Misguided Intelligence

Geothermal Valley:

Defensive Strategy

If you are still having trouble turning in GULAG RECON side quest:

The solution to delete the game, reinstall and play offline without update did not work for me on the XBOX X. Here is what i did to test and solve this issue, which after hours of effort, was finally solved.

1. Attempted to uninstall game, reinstall and play offline. Result: game wouldn’t load, just got Black Screen.
2. Attempted to uninstall the DLCs. RESULT: got error message about a Durango file missing and only option was to Terminate.
3. Reinstalled DLCs. Tried to load game again. Result: BLACK SCREEN. The game simply would not load in offline mode on the XBOX X.

I began to realize this offline solution would not work on the X, so i decided to move my external hard drive to the standard XBOX One console that i still have and try from there.

1. Tried to load game RESULT: Game loaded but only option was to start a new game. Because i was offline, it was also not syncing save file from cloud.
2. Went online to go ahead and download the update, so that i could sync from the cloud after it was done. I was going to go ahead and delete the game again once update was done and game was sync’d, so i could install and turn in that mission offline.
3. I decided to try to load the game mid-update but it was stuck on the resume option. Update was only halfway thru.
4. Tried a few minutes later and it let me load the game AND TURN IN THE MISSION.

I did not need to wait for update to finish, i did not need to uninstall, and reinstall offline without update which was the next plan.

I should get an achievement for all this time and effort required just to turn in one tiny little side mission.

Developers, you need to fix this glitch. You may have solved it on the standard XBOX One, but the solution to uninstall and reinstall/play offline to turn in the one mission, does not work on the XBOX X. At least it didnt for me.

I hope this helps anyone else having same problem, and if so, i hope you still have your standard XBOX ONE.

Thank you so much!!!! I had to switch to the Xbox 1 to turn one part of the quest in and then I had to do a final part to the quest but when I tried to turn it in, it wouldn’t work again. So I loaded back in on my series X and it worked! It popped this achievement and the 100% completion achievement. So I really appreciate your help!

Hi achievement hunters as most seeking this achievement know there is one mission that you turn in after completion.

I'm sorry but I am working off the assumption that everyone knows which mission it is, anyway the way I found to completing it by rejecting the side mission selecting a new save then completing the objectives in order (top to bottom) and when I went back allowed to turn it in.
The reason I told you to select a new save is because you can't restart the mission but doing it this way allows you to back your save up and retry the mission I hope this helps you.

Alongside the main plot, there are also several optional side missions for Lara to complete, with item and experience rewards for completion. There are a total of eight missions in the game - four each in the Soviet Installation and Geothermal Valley regions - with missions given out by allied individuals who Lara encounters. After completing the last of these, the achievement will unlock.

GLITCHED

Note: This issue was fixed with Patch 1.05. You must start a completely new game after installing Patch 1.05 and play through the game from scratch to get this. If you did this prior to Patch 1.05 the trophies will not pop retroactively, it has to be done in a new game.

For this trophy you must do all 9 side missions (5 in Soviet Installation, 4 in Geothermal Valley). These get marked on your map automatically when they are nearby. There are also follow-up missions that only unlock after completing a previous side mission. When you scroll over your map, it tells you how many there are per region.

Some players have trouble getting this to unlock but for others it unlocks just fine. The cause of this problem is unknown and if the trophy doesn't unlock, then your only option is to start a new game from scratch.

There are a total of NINE tasks in the game in only two locations:

• Location SOVIET BASE :

1. COMMUNICATION IS INTERRUPTED - disable 5 transmitters (shown on the map). Theoretically, according to the plot, you will encounter an ally from whom you can take this first task.

2. DANGEROUS TERRITORY - eliminate 6 wolves in the cave. After the storyline escape from the helicopter shooting at you, you can take this task from an ally near the sawmill, i.e. northeast of the first ally.

3. UNLUCK - rescue two prisoners from captivity. After the storyline escape from the helicopter shooting at you, the first ally.

4. INTELLIGENCE OF THE PRISON CAMP - find three documents (shown on the map). After completing the quest DANGEROUS TERRITORY, with an ally in the cave where you killed the wolves.

5. FALSE INFORMATION - kill the crow (shown on the map). After completing the task UNLUCK, you can take this task from the first ally.

• Location GEOTHERMAL VALLEY :

1. DEFENSE STRATEGY - bring 4 branches and 4 deer skins. The ally is located northeast of the first base camp, in the same settlement.

2. FAILURE OF INTELLIGENCE - shoot down 4 flying drones (shown on the map). The ally is located near the second tower, where you took the resources to complete the DEFENSE STRATEGY task.

3. ANCIENT SECRETS - explore all nine challenge tombs ( Video Guide ). The ally is located southeast of the southern base camp.

4. PLENTY LUNCH - bring 4 mushrooms and 2 wild boar meat (boars are marked on the map). After completing the task INTELLIGENCE FAILURE, the same ally.
