Young Gun
Submit Ocelot.
Story Related. You will acquire this trophy during your first encounter with Ocelot during the beginning
"Virtuous Mission" when you are sent to retrieve Sokolov the first time. It will be a cutscene battle and the
trophy will be acquired at the end.

Pain Relief
Defeat The Pain.
Story Related. You will acquire this trophy after you defeat The Pain in the caves. After you finally face off
with Ocelot, you will jump down into a crevice cave area to avoid the bees that begin attacking you. Make
your way through here and you'll come to an opening where your battle with The Pain will begin. He
attacks with bees as you should of noticed and thanks to the area around you being water, simply dive in
when he sends them after you, pop up and shoot when get opening. His primary abilities are to throw bee
grenades at you which you can shoot them and break up in the air and he will cover himself in bees,
attacking as a shield. Throw smoke bombs to disorient him and break up the bee shield for easy attacks.
During the fight as you weaken him a little, he'll fire homing bee bullets at you which won't do major
damage but do track you for a while. When you have him about halfway down in health or stamina, he will
form a Tommy gun and fire at you with it. Just keep up your same strategy of diving into the water to
dodge his attacks and fire back when he's open until you defeat him.
NOTE: Tranqing The Pain unlocks the Hornet Camo which allows you to control bees and wards off other
leaches, bees, and spiders.

If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It

Defeat the Fear.
Story Related. You will acquire this trophy after you defeat The Fear. You will encounter The Fear after
you speak to Granin and acquire the key and have to backtrack a ways. As you are going back through the
jungle, you'll be shot in the leg by The Fear. After the cutscene with him, go into the Cure Menu and use
the antidote and extract the arrow before the fight, otherwise, you'll stay partially weakened and poisoned.
You'll have to watch for him very closely as he hops from tree to tree and is semi-invisible. His stamina will
drain making it slightly easier to take him out with tranqs, but he does recover this if you let him eat the fruit
and other birds in the area. Keep a watch on him and fire as often as you can to take him out of his
invisible state. He'll fire down at you as long as you aren't shooting back so don't worry much about
dodging and simply stay focused on attacking him and chasing him with shots as he tries to eat. If you
don't allow him to do this, you'll have a very easy win on your hands here.
NOTE: Tranqing The Fear unlocks the Spider Camo which gives enhanced camo rating at the cost of
constant stamina depletion.

The End
Defeat The End.
Story Related. You will acquire this trophy after you defeat The End. The battle with The End will either be
simply a headshot while he's in a wheelchair at the Pier early in the game after you have defeated The
Pain OR a very long epic sniper battle in the forest with him. Either way, you earn this trophy but it will
affect if you get another trophy now or later as well as affecting camo unlocks. If you want to take him out
early and eliminate the long battle, simply refer to the The Early End trophy. Otherwise, let him go inside
and ignore him at the pier warehouse area.
If you are going to battle him normally, it will take place throughout 3 different areas of the jungle and The
End will normally be perched high above sniping down on you. Be advised he has very good vision and
will spot you often if you simply run amuck through the jungles. Also, at times when he has you in his
scopes, the game will give a perspective from him looking down at you so dodge behind some cover. Try
to stay low and look up for his scope glare in the sun or watch from where his shots came from to get a
few hits off quick. He will normally fire a time or two and then relocate so keep in mind.
Having trouble defeating The End fairly through the battle? Simply save your game and change up the
system time by a week to a year or so. When you reload, you'll be granted a cutscene showing Snake
finding his dead body and he has died from old age. Confirmed this still works on the PS3. Also, if you
save and wait some time, when you reload instead of The End being dead, he will tranq Snake and you
will have to make your way back from the Grainin Grad(name??) Base prison. Both make for interesting
cutscenes but unnecessary for platinum. You won't get The End's rifle or camo if you defeat him this way.
NOTE: If you sneak up on the End and hold him up, he will give you his Moss camo, which is nearly the
best overall in the game as it will recover some health in sunlight and gives you 100% camo index in right
locations. You will have to aim your gun at him 3 times before he will give it up and run off. Also, if you
finish him off by tranquilizing him, you will receive the Mosin Nagant rifle of his.

Houston, We HAD a Problem

Defeat the Fury.
Story Related. After you make it from the mountains, you will eventually come upon The Fury, who is
equipped with a jetpack, a spacesuit, and a flamethrower. You will find a bit of difficulty most likely with him
as you battle in narrow corridors and he will be flying around the place shooting his flamethrower down
each one after you. Try to hide a bit and when he comes looking for you, sneak a few shots off into the
back of his head and simply repeat. Just dodge down other corridors as he chases you with his fire and
you will eventually overcome him.
NOTE: Tranqing The Fury unlocks the Fire Camo which gives you immunity to fire damage and has a cool
red and black pattern.
[hide] - [top]

River of Pain
Defeat the Sorrow.
Story Related. You will acquire this trophy after you journey down the River of Sorrows. During this part of
the game, you will encounter everyone that you have killed so far in the story, including bosses if you killed
any of them rather than tranqing them. You can simply use the Revival Pill from the beginning and avoid
the entire thing if you choose, but interesting to see it through the end and necessary for the Spirit Camo. If
you get to the end and reach the Sorrow, you will die and have to use the Pill anyways, so your choice. DO
NOT HIT CONTINUE!!! Also, he will fire little ghost beams at you throughout the battle that will knock you
down if get hit. Side step them to avoid and dodge around the enemies you will see coming at your
throughout as well.
NOTE: If you do go through the entire river and reach The Sorrow, you will acquire the Spirit Camo which
will be "automatically" in your bag when you get your gear back. So it's best to simply go through the river
section, rather than get out of a few minutes... granted you didn't gun down every single soul around
through the game.
[hide] - [top]

Shagadelic
Defeat Shagohod.
Story Related. After Snake gets discovered and makes it back to the base after acquiring C3 to blow up
the Shagohod, you will plant it, but it won't work for destroying the thing. This will begin a cutscene and
then you will become chased by the Shagohod while escaping with Eva on the motorcycle. Shoot out it's
treads to slow it down during this point and watch out for enemies chasing around you. After so long, you
will go across a bridge and need to snipe some C3 placed here as it comes over.

However, the battle isn't quite over yet and Volgin and part of the Shagohod break off and jump up after
you. Eva will drive around the area on the bike distracting it while you are able to shoot back. Aim for the
treads and she will circle around behind the beastly machine. Here aim for the back area which is it's
weakness and fire RPGs. You will have unlimited ammo so don't worry and keep firing periodically at the
treads to hamper it's movement. After you take it down here, Volgin will come out from the machine and
gain control with his lightning. You will essentially be repeating the same method as before now, except
Eva drives around on the bike while you walk. Simply fire away at the treads and then aim your attacks
directly at Volgin himself. Repeat this and you will eventually defeat him FOR GOOD!
[hide] - [top]

Grounded
Defeat Volgin in a fist fight.
Story Related. When you meet back with Volgin and get to finally put the bastard down, some major tips
will help make it super easy battle. Firstly, throw down a tree frog and he will become distracted by it and
chase around until he kills it. Also, if you have the Russian Glow cap mushrooms, they will absorb his
lightning attacks as long as they are on the battlefield. Finally, equip Raiden's (Raikov's) mask to confuse
him for a few moments and then cause him once he realizes it's you to become REALLY mad so watch
out! Otherwise, during the fight, roll and dodge his punches and lightning attacks and fire back at him. No
where really to take cover so have to watch out during the fight. Keep in mind, you will only be able to
attack Volgin from behind, otherwise your bullets and attacks will do nothing.
:NOTE: Tranqing Volgin unlocks the Cold War camo which has Soviet colors on the front and US on the
back. This will cause enemies to hesitate from shooting you when looking at you, but if see your back will
fire away aggressively. As soon as you defeat him, the camo will pop out of him and lay nearby in the floor.
Quickly acquire it.
[hide] - [top]

The Patriot
Defeat The Boss.
Story Related. At the end of the game mostly, you will meet back up with The Boss and have to kill her
now. You will fight this battle in a white field area so equip camo to match this environment and hide when
you can to sneak off some shots and make her mad. If you try and CQC her, it will result in you getting
your ass handed to you so don't try it. Simply take cover when she tries to shoot you with The Patriot and
keep firing back when get a chance. The Fake Death Pill won't work her either as she'll simply know it's
fake and kick the crap out of you for it. Remember to tranq her for the final camo, The Snake Camo.
Nothing really special about this battle, except for the time limit and her counters of CQC.
NOTE: Tranqing The Boss unlocks the Snake camo. It unlike the other special boss camo suits offers
nothing special aside from near perfect camouflage.
[hide] - [top]

Mama Said
CQC Slam a guard and knock him out.
To obtain this trophy, you need to run into an enemy soldier and slam him over you by hitting
the

CQC attack button while unarmed. Snake will grab the soldier and send them flying back onto the

floor. If unsure how to do this, neutralize all enemies in a location but one and make sure he doesn't have
a radio(or take it out). You can then hold him up and run at him as stated and should perform the move.
[hide] - [top]

Tell Me Where the Bomb Is

CQC Interrogate an enemy.
To obtain this trophy, you need to grab an enemy soldier from behind and hit

(or

depending on

control scheme possibly) to interrogate them. This is easiest if you hold them up with your gun first as no
risk of them turning and seeing you (though a simple punch or two will silence them at this range).
Interrogating enemies is useful to get information about upcoming enemy locations and will acquire you
some radio frequencies.
NOTE: Do not press hard on the

button as you will slit their throat, netting you a different trophy, but

will kill them so they can't be interrogated.

[hide] - [top]

Like He Just Doesn't Care

CQC Hold up an enemy.
To obtain this trophy, simply hold your gun up to an enemy soldier so that Snake yells, "FREEZE", and
they will hold their arms up. While you hold

, you can circle around the enemy. Now aim your weapon

at their head or groin area and they will mutter something and shake, dropping ammo or other items. In
MGS 2, this is done to acquire dogtags from the soldiers, but they do not have them in this game.
[hide] - [top]

Close Shave
CQC Slit an enemy's throat.

To obtain this trophy, simply grab hold of an enemy soldier with

button and press down hard on it.

Snake will use his knife and slit their throat. Easy trophy and quick kill. Be sure to hid the body if don't want
to be caught now. Notice all that blood? The other soldiers won't pay any mind so just dispose of the body
and you're safe.
NOTE: You will need to do this trophy and reload to a previous save in order to platinum the game in oneplaythrough. Keep in mind.
[hide] - [top]

Don't Touch the Sides

Use a knife to remove a bullet.
For this trophy, you will need to get shot by an enemy soldier so that a bullet is lodged in Snake. Go to the
Cure Menu, and select the knife to remove the bullet and finish healing it up. YOU MUST FULLY PATCH
UP THE WOUND! I also noticed that the trophy wouldn't pop until I exited the Cure menu so don't panic if
you sit there for a bit after using the knife and no trophy pop.
NOTE: Removing the bee bullets from the battle with The Pain does not count for this so keep in mind.

The Cat's Out of the Bag

Catch a glimpse of Ocelot, who's seen behind the president when he tries to shake
Snake's hand.
Missable Trophy. At the end of the game after you defeat The Boss and play Ocelot's little game, you will
have a secret R1 view watching the president shake Snake's hand at a point. IF you press R1 during this
time, you will be able to look to the window slightly to the left and see Ocelot standing there looking in at
you. And ofcourse, he's doing that thing with his hands

. Very simply but easily missed trophy.

[hide] - [top]

Snake Eyes
See all of the first-person views that are not indicated by the R1 button icon.
Missable Trophy. For this trophy, you will need to see every "hidden" First Person View in the game.
These are the same as when "R1" prompt comes up during cutscenes, however, you will have NO prompt
to alert you when to do it. If you are worried you may miss one, simply watch every video and hold "R1" at
all times. Rotate the left analog stick to circle around and you will know that you're in one if it allows you to
do this.
Definitely make sure towards the end game scenes that you are looking around as for another trophy you

need to spot Ocelot in the view rather than just seeing it by pressing "R1". Refer to the trophy "Cat's Out of
the Bag" for more details.
Complete List of Hidden First-Person Views

When you have climbed the mountain and Snake is spying at Volgin's base, you can press R1
during a point and see The Boss riding away and Eva motioning at you.

Right after the torture scene, you can hit R1 when Ocelot is leaving the room to view The Boss.

When you defeat the Shagohod, you can see The Sorrow standing behind Eva when she hugs
Snake.

When you defeat The Boss, you can view The Sorrow's and her ghosts as her horse walks over to
you.

TROPHY RELATED VIEW: At the end of the game when Snake and the President are shaking
hands, you can view Ocelot in the window looking at you. NOTE: Look towards the left during this
scene at the windows and you'll notice him. "Cat's Out of the Bag"

In the final scenes as Snake stands over The Boss's grave, you can press R1, but it will just be
blurry as his "eye" tears up.

[hide] - [top]

Prince Charming
Shoot a Kerotan for the first time.
During the game, you will sometimes locate these hidden little frog figures known as Kerotans. Simply
shoot one and it will jiggle about and make a bit of noise, but you will acquire your trophy. Refer to It Ain't
Easy Being Green for list and locations of all 64 of these guys.
[hide] - [top]

Ralph Called
Make Snake throw up.
To acquire this trophy, simply go to the camo viewer of Snake and spin him around in circles there for a
few moments. Then exit out to the game and he will puke and you will obtain your trophy.

Can I keep It?

Capture any animal alive.
To acquire this trophy, simply use any tranquilizer gun (EZ Gun, MK22, Mosin Nagant, etc) and shoot an
animal such as a frog or snake and pick it up.
NOTE: Any tranq gun will work, as will stun grenades.

Just What the Doctor Ordered

Collect every type of medicinal plant.
Missable Trophy. Simply collect every medical supply from the medicinal plants in the game to obtain this
trophy. There are 4 plants that will "turn" into Medicine and Cure items when you hit them. These are going
to look just like normal plants throughout the game, but helps if you use the Thermal Goggles acquired in
Rassvet(also if you miss them here located in the warehouse area where you spot The End for the first
time). Wear them and all plants and animals will stick out with a heat image so that you know where to
look. Simply kick or shoot any plants you come across and try to find all four of these.
NOTE: Easiest place I found for these were at the beginning of the Snake Eater mission. Backtrack after
The Boss destroys the craft you landed in to where you began The Virtuous Mission in Dremuchij South.
Here you can acquire all plants for the trophy. Makes easier if you go to Rassvet and acquire the Thermal
Goggles

Styptic Plant

Cold Medicine Plant

Disinfectant Plant

Splint Plant

Tip by Fox Graniny Gorki Lab on the desk on the 1st Floor. Room contains all plants each in a separate
orange planter. Easiest location by far.
[hide] - [top]

Everything Is in Season
Collect every type of fruit.
Missable Trophy. Simply collect every type of fruit in the game to obtain this trophy. There are only three
different fruits to find in the game. These can all be found at the beginning of the Snake Eater Mission
around the cutscene with The Boss and her white horse.

mixed up with Golova fruit)

Fruit B: Russian False Mango (Most difficult to find, various locations, easiest location is just after
getting out of caves when you defeat The Pain)

A Bird in the Hand...

Collect every type of bird.
Missable Trophy. Simply collect every type of bird in the game to obtain this trophy. There are only 5
different birds to find in the game.
NOTE: The Parrot is The End's companion and you will only be able to catch it during the boss battle with
him in the forest during that part of the game. If you miss out here, you will have to restart from the
beginning. You will be able to find the parrot perched up in any of the areas and he flies around a bit so be
alert and focus on finding it before trying to bring an end to The End. If you kill the parrot rather than
catching it, you will piss The End off so be advised. 100% as long as you don't move around locations,
after the cutscene the parrot will be perched on a stump just next to Snake's location. Tranq him and

collect before engaging with The End. If you kill the parrot, he will become mad, but don't know outcome
as didn't go through all the way.

Bird A: Parrot (READ NOTES, Found only during the battle with The End in the Sokrovenno
locations)

Missable Trophy. Simply collect every type of snake in the game to obtain this trophy. There are 11
different snakes to find in the game.
NOTE: The Tsuchinoko does not count for this trophy, but is still a trophy on it's own and needed for the
Markhor Title Rank. Also, the final three snakes are found ONLY during the boss battle with The Boss.
They will each be next to a log and you will have to be quick to capture them as you're fighting with The
Boss and on a time limit. When going into this battle keep a cage or two open and you can eat the snake

Snake Eater
Eat a snake of any type.
To obtain this trophy, simply capture or kill any snake you come across in the game, and eat it. Most are
tasty and give good stamina so be very hard to miss out as they are the largest animal group in the game
as well. Simply look for a python or anaconda slithering around at the beginning of the game, kill or tranq
it, and then feast away for a trophy.
[hide] - [top]

A Good Man is Hard to Find.

Achieve a camouflage index of 100%.
To obtain this trophy you will need your Camo Index to read 100% and so that you are perfectly
camouflaged. You will have to acquire the Moss Camo from the battle with The End to get an index of
100% so don't expect it until then. Simply wear this camo and crawl around and you should find some
spots that match you and will hit your mark. Try staying in low grass or on logs with woodland facepaint or
whatever matches environment best and should be fine.
Refer to You Snooze, You Lose for details and tips on how to hold up The End and obtain the camo.
NOTE: Fox confirmed that the Stealth camo does NOT work for this trophy so that you will have to obtain
using the Moss Camouflage. Also, when you have 100%, when you stand your rating will be 55%. Lying
down with hit 100% so keep in mind when wearing if can't find a spot easily.
[hide] - [top]

I Can Totally See You

Achieve a camouflage index of +90%.
Same as with the A Good Man is Hard to Find trophy, except you will simply need your camo index to read
90% or more. For this, simply equip a camo type that BEST matches your environments, such as the
Woodland OR Flecktarn Camo and face paints. Now lie down flat in a patch of grass on the ground and it
should be 90% with this match up. If not, experiment around and you will find some. Such as in the
mountains, lie down with the desert camo styles equipped and you should hit your mark.

Problem Solved, Series Over

Create the Ocelot Time Paradox.
Missable Trophy. To acquire this trophy, you will need to kill Revolver Ocelot during the story. You will be
able to do this after the cutscene and he's left lying knocked out on the ground. Simply shoot him in the
head or knife him until he dies and you will fail the game, but obtain this Easter egg trophy.
[hide] - [top]

Snake Bit
Poison a guard.

For this trophy, you will need to poison a guard. This is done by dropping some rotten or poisonous food
down nearby them, and then having them eat it. Easiest to make them eat food by destroying their
food/provisions shed in some areas. Can also throw a poisonous animal at the guards such as a spider or
snake and have it attack them to become poisoned.
[hide] - [top]

Serenity Now
Call one Healing Radio frequency.
Simply call a Healing Radio frequency and you will obtain this trophy. These can be acquired on different
difficulites by interrogating certain guards. For entire list of frequencies, refer to the Tune-In Tokyo trophy.
[hide] - [top]

Tune-In Tokyo
Call every Healing Radio frequency.
For this trophy, you will need to call in at every Healing Radio frequency. These are normally acquired
from interrogating guards, but you do not need to do this if you know the frequency. They are all different
per difficulty(granted Very Easy and Easy are same) so keep in mind, BUT you only need to call every
station on one difficulty setting. It's for the same stations, just different frequencies.
List of Stations and Frequencies
Toggle Spoiler
NOTE: You only need to get all of them for the difficulty you're playing on. You don't have to interrogate
anyone and recover the frequency, but that is how you normally would find them out if couldn't look them
up on the internet.

Beekeper
Use bees to harass an enemy.
This trophy can be obtained by shooting a beehive near an enemy soldier, thus causing the bees to attack
them. This is easily used to clear paths or create diversions for sneaking around groups of enemies.
Easiest point for this trophy is during the Virtuous Mission at the beginning when you come to the bridge.
You will notice in the cutscene the beehive overhead the enemy soldier there and can easily shoot it down.
He will be attacked and run off and even scare away the guards at the end of the bridge allowing you safe
and unobstructed passage.
[hide] - [top]

Just Because
Blow up a munitions shed with TNT.
To acquire this trophy, you will need to blow up any ammo dump with some TNT that you come across.
Easiest point is in the area where you first find TNT and set some off in the same ammo shed that you find
it. Set it and detonate when you're safe distance away and the trophy will pop. This is also helpful to
reduce the ammo and or provisions of the enemies making them more susceptible to eating dropped food
AND causing a lack of ammo for them.
[hide] - [top]

Mostly Dead
Use the Fake Death pill.
At the beginning of the game when you can control Snake and get your backpack, you will have an item
called the Fake Death Pill. Simply use it and then the revival pill to come back and you will obtain this
trophy. If you use the Fake Death Pill and wait too long, you will really die.
[hide] - [top]

Believe It or Not
Catch a Tsuchinoko (mythical serpent).

Missable Trophy
For this trophy, you will have to capture the Tsuchinoko snake alive during the game. You won't be able to
see him at all, but have to lay down mousetraps in an area, leave and come back to see if you caught
anything or not. Not sure if it's specific areas as everything leads to it's entirely random, but for all
purposes I KNOW you can locate one in the area where you battled The Fear. Put down as many
mousetraps as you have gotten a hold anywhere in the area, leave, and come back. You can retrieve your
mousetraps infinitely by crawling over them as you would the claymores. When you go to pick them up, if
you caught this snake, it'll say something like TNECHNO or similar anyways. Now you will obtain your
trophy.

Call Para-Medic to hear what they say about this snake.

NOTE: Now for the Infinity Face Paint, you will have to finish the game with Tsuchinoko alive. However,
you will lose it when you get captured and tortured and do NOT get it back when Eva returns your
weapons and backpack. You will have to catch it again. If you managed to catch one earlier in the game, it
will be on the path outside from the waterfall where you meet with Eva in area, Tikhogornyj. Once you get
your gear back from Eva go outside and tranq it again. This time holding on to it for the rest of the game.
When you begin playing again on that same save file, you will have unlocked the Infinity Face Paint, also
unlocked by acquiring the Foxhound rank.

TIP from GOIVA: If you capture every animal in a location, namely the one with The Fear for example, it
makes it easier to capture Tsuchinoko with the mousetraps as there will be no other animals or life to
capture in the area.
[hide] - [top]

Fashionista
Find every type of camouflage.

Missable Trophy
For this trophy, you will need to find and acquire all camouflages located throughout the game. This
includes all camo suits that are obtained through defeating bosses with "stamina depletion" using CQC(if
able), MK22, or any other tranq weapon.
NOTE: All camouflages carry over into the next playthrough after game completion. You must use the
same save file. The special story uniforms will have to be reacquired, however.
Camouflages Found In Game

Raindrop: Located in Dolinvodno, underneath the ledge after crossing the bridge. Snake Eater
Mission, NOT Virtuous Mission. A weapon will be here in the beginning section but you must wait
until you come back later for the camo.

GA-KO: Located in Chyornyj Prud, area with crocs and quick-mud swamp. NOTE: This camo will
be useful with trying to located Kerotans as it makes a sound when you get near them.

Only Skin Deep

Find every type of face paint.

Missable Trophy
For this trophy, you need to find and acquire all face paints located throughout the game. None of these
come from stamina killing bosses as the camouflages do so no need to worry there.
NOTE: All face paints carry over into the next playthrough after game completion. You must use the same
save file.

Infinity Face Paint: Acquired through finding Tsuchinoko and finishing game with one alive. Also
obtained by completing the game with Foxhound ranking. No completely sure if this counts yet for
the trophy!

appears after meeting Eva.

The Early End

Kill The End before the boss battle.
Missable Trophy. To obtain this trophy, you need to take out The End before you actually get to the boss
battle with him. During the story after you defeat The Pain, you will come to a cutscene showing Sokolov,
Volgin, The Boss and others talking. Here you'll see The End sitting in a wheelchair sleeping and after the
cutscene is over you'll be able to shoot him just before the soldiers wheel him back inside. You will have to
be really skilled and use your pistol at this point and hit him in the head OR use the Sniper Rifle found just
before entering this area in the other path to the left on the river. The sniper rifle is found inside the
provisions warehouse in this section, but be sure to grab it because after you enter the cutscene if you
leave, The End will go inside. Only have a limited bit of time after the cutscene to try this so save after you
defeat the Pain and if you're ready, save after cutscene so you can load and try right from this point. Aim
quickly, and you will catch an opening where The End is facing directly at you before they wheel him away.
Take your shot and keep firing as soldiers will be alerted when you kill him. If you manage to kill him, later
in the game, he won't be waiting for you as you head for the mountain path and can avoid a very time
consuming and somewhat difficult battle. Instead, you will fight some GRU soldiers here but nothing to
worry about.
TIP: I_NERO_I says that if you destroy the provisions section here, it will affect how fast soldiers will react
to protecting The End at this point. Could be helpful if you missed the rifle and need bit of time to try and
snipe him with a pistol or AK-47.

You Snooze, You Lose

Sneak up on The End and hold him up.

Missable Trophy
During the battle with The End, you will face off against him in a sniper battle of sorts in several areas of
the jungle. For the trophy, you will need to locate him before he finds you, and "sneak" up on him
somehow. Hold him up here and you will obtain your trophy along with the Moss Camo, that will allow for
100% max camo index. You will have to be very sneaky and crawl for most of the battle to get jump on
The End. Look for the sniping points that are labeled on the map and watch for glares at top of hills.
I did this twice to see how went. First time he kept spotting me quite a bit, but second time I managed to
not get seen at all. I looked for where he was, crawled around and took as much cover behind logs and in
grass as I could with the Flecktarn Camo and Woodland face paint equipped. Super easy if you have
Stealth Camo from a previous game, but assuming you won't. In the area with the river, you can equip the
gator cap and crawl in the water also and he won't notice you. Well you will come up in the scopes, but
he'll say something like "Just a croc" or "what a croc" and ignore you. If you stand up, however, you'll take
a bullet dart. Also, you can use the fake death pill to make him come out of hiding thinking you're dead, but
can only be used one time as he'll fuss if try it again. Found easiest way to locate him by equipping the AP
sensor and crawl around. When you come near him, it will go off slowly beeping and more so the closer he
is. Be advised that he will hear the beeping if you get too close. If sit and wait for a while, he will
sometimes fall asleep and allow you to sneak up on him. When you catch him, walk or crawl over VERY
slowly and then point your gun at him to hold him up.
Remember to use the directional mic as well to hear his location if you can't quite find him by seeing a
glare on the hills. You can hear him snoring at times and this is best time to try and hold him up, just
remember to be extremely quiet when approaching him. Also, you may catch him muttering to himself
allowing you to find his location. Catching his parrot and releasing him, it will fly over to his location
revealing it if you pay close enough attention.
For any extra help on defeating The End or tips in the battle that you may need, refer to The
End

trophy.

total of 44 items you need to have acquired, with some being quite rare so try and obtain as soon as
possible. For more help on where to acquire each animal, refer to the other trophies for collecting all

locations)

Baltic Hornet's Nest (Chyornyj Prud area on center isle, various locations)

Rat (common, found in most food storage buildings, warehouses, & crawlspaces)

Japanese Flying Squirrel (Difficult to locate but use Thermal Goggles and search in top
of trees during nighttime to find easiest, Check area where battle The Fear and The
End, quickest way is just when Snake Eater mission starts in opening area)

Vampire Bat (Caves with The Pain for locations, Area where you battle The Fury also
has a few bats)

Emperor Scorpion (Mountains are most common location)

Cobalt Blue Tarantula (Mountains, also rare but found in prison & bathroom of Graniny

The Pain's Hornets Nest (Acquired by taking keeping a hornet nest in your backpack
during the fight with The Pain, turn's into this item after the battle) NOTE: Not sure if this

is required as some say it does and some otherwise. I don't remember having it but
acquired the trophy.

All four medicinal plants may be required as well. Safest to assume yes since you need
to acquire them anyways.

NOTE: Interesting tid-bit I got from talking with Para-Medic after obtaining some Markhor meat was what
the name stood for. Forgot language or whatever she said it was, but means "Snake Eater".

It Ain't Easy Being Green

Find all 64 Kerotans.

Missable Trophy
Find all 64 Kerotans located in the game to unlock this trophy. You will also unlock the Stealth Camo as
well, which this unlocks as well if you have ZERO alerts throughout the whole game. Listed below are the
locations for all 64 kerotan frogs found in the game. There is essentially one for every area, with select
areas containing more than one so keep and eye out for each one. The locations are going to be as helpful
as possible in detail, but there may be a few that are harder to explain as need to be looking at it the same
way as Asuka or myself.
I apologize if you can't find one in an area, but will try to post a video showing each location to be even
more thorough. REMEMBER! Save frequently and keep up with ones you have. Also, use the GA-KO
camouflage to help in locating each kerotan as it will sound off when you enter an area with a frog you
haven't shot yet. If you enter your in-game menu and then exit out, it will resound if a kerotan still resides
un-shot. These will carry off into a new game for any that you missed. For example, if you missed only one
out of all 64 in Rassvet area in Snake Eater mission, when you replay the game, you will only need to
acquire that one. However for the rank and the stealth camo, you need to complete the game. This trophy
should pop when you have shot all 64 and shoot the last one in the area with The Boss (unless replaying
cause you missed one).
Virtuous Mission Kerotans
Keep in mind these first five kerotans are unobtainable after you complete the part where Snake gets
owned by The Boss and concludes the Virtuous Mission. If you miss one OR go through a point of no
return, you will have to wait to reacquire it when you replay on the next game.
Toggle Spoiler

Snake Eater Mission Kerotans

NOTE: For the next five Kerotans (Dremuchij East - Dolinovodno, you MUST collect them before you go
into the room Sokolov was in within the Rassvet area. This is a point of no return! Make your way to
Rassvet and collect the AK-47 near the local Kerotan. Then backtrack all the way back to where you
began the Virtuous Mission, and activate all of the Kerotans you originally passed up. Once you're positive

you've shot all of them, you can proceed with the mission. If you play on VERY EASY difficulty, you will still
have your EZ Gun and can shoot them with that. Also, any other special items(like The Patriot) that you
have unlocked if playing on a NG+ playthrough you keep as well.
Toggle Spoiler

Motorcycle Chase Kerotans

TIP: It is best to save as soon as entering each new area during this part so you can retry to get the
kerotans if go and miss them. There will be one in each motorcycle scene you go through so keep in mind.
Equip the SVD or RPG and fire away at them as quick and accurately as you can. If can't tell if hit, use the
Directional Mic to listen for their noises. Also, keep the GA-KO camo equipped and enter your menu
screen and exit back out. If you hear a noise of the kerotans, you still haven't gotten it yet so keep in mind
for this.

swamp (ironically where you get GA-KO camo), which I must've accidentally missed. You can
also confirm this by the previously tagged Kerotans' refusal to 'call-out' when wearing GA-KO
Camo in New Game+.
This means, that any Kerotan you have gotten before, won't make any noises when you use the GA-KO
camo that lets you hear them and they stay tagged completely, allowing you to hunt only for ones you
have missed in the NG+ play.

Like a Boss
Finish the game on any difficulty.
You will earn this trophy when you complete the game on any difficulty setting.

PEACE WALKER
Finish the game without killing anyone.

For this trophy, you will have to go through the entire game without killing a single soldier. This includes
every boss so you'll have to tranq each of them AND can't allow any soldiers to die by anything of your
doing, such as moving them when they're knocked out and dropping them OR knocking into water and
drowning. You can use the River of Sorrow to judge if you've killed anyone during that first half of the game
as they will be spirits here walking past you, but afterwards, you'll have to be careful to make sure no one
dies as you have no signs until the end. Easiest way is to play on Very Easy difficulty and use the EZ Gun
most often or the M22 tranq gun.
