Far Cry 5 Beginner Tips

Unlike the past two games in the series, you no longer need to hunt animals to upgrade your gear and equipment. In Far Cry 5, animal skins are purely for making quick money, which you’re going to need if you want to buy the best weapons available in the game.

Boomer is great for identifying animals on your screen, and you should have the bow with you at all times to hunt them easily and save ammo. Once you reach the first shop in the game, consider buying the fishing rod as well to go fishing and catch marine life for selling. The Harvest Master perk doubles your loot reward from plants and animals, so this is a good one to go for if you want to grind for money.
