Ignoble Beasts (Bronze, 10G) – To earn this trophy/achievement, you’re going to have to kill a bison with any melee weapon. Again, the easiest option here is to consume the homeopathic “The Furious” from the utility wheel. This boosts your melee damage and will kill the bison in one hit.

Like A Bird (Silver, 10G) – Use a wingsuit to travel more than 5000m. First, you’ll need to unlock the wingsuit perk for four points, then head over to a cliff or a mountain, jump off and click R3. This trophy is made a whole lot easier by the Airdrop perk, which lets you fast travel into an elevated air drop position.

Close and Personal (Bronze, 20G) – Perform 25 close combat Takedown Kills. Walk up to an enemy and you’ll see an R3 prompt. This will trigger a takedown animation. Do 25 of these to gain the achievement/trophy.

Explosive Surprise (Silver, 20G) – Kill 5 enemies with sabotaged vehicles. You’ll need the Saboteur Perk for this one. Go to any fast travel point and wait for an enemy vehicle to turn up. Shoot the driver, leaving the passenger alive. Plant a bomb on the hood of the car then keep the enemy as close to the car as possible as it explodes. Do this 5 times and you’re done.
