The bane of any stealth player's life, alarm boxes in Far Cry 5 operate in much the same way as always: If enemies can activate one you'll have reinforcements breathing down your neck.

You can tell which goons are going to sprint towards one by the "wifi"-looking symbol above their heads, so be sure to blast these boxes from afar with either gunfire or arrows.

Suppressing fire can occasionally mean you deactivate an alarm without the rest of the base alerting, though this is dependant on where an enemy is in relation to the box itself. Far Cry 5's A.I. seems to be aware of all things at all times more than any past instalment, so pick your shots if you're going for a "No Alerts" run.
