Far Cry 5: 14 Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You

5. The Secret To Selling Animal Skins For The Most Cash

It can be mighty tempting to lob explosives at any high-value animal target. Far Cry 5 certainly lines up all sorts of demonic moose and - I quote - "Drugged up super-bears", but whatever you do, DON'T blow them up.

Doing so will only result in "damaged skins", the same as Far Cry's past, and there's a secret method instead:

Basically, you want to weaken the creatures as much as possible using gunfire, but not enough to kill them. As long as the final blow comes from an arrowhead or - funnier yet - a haymaker, you'll get an animal skin in perfect condition.

It means you can get away with plugging a good few rounds into that illustrious black bear charging at you from between the trees, but still get away with the best reward in the end.
