Takedowns
After spending a few hours in Far Cry 4, you’ll soon find that stealth is the key to success in most situations. If you look at the Tiger skill tree, you’ll find a good number of takedown skills available for your perusal. Try to learn these once you’ve gotten your health issue under control (see: tip 1).
One of the first, but also one of the coolest and most useful, takedowns you’ll get to learn is the Knife Throw takedown. At the cost of only two skill points, Ajay can stealth kill an enemy soldier and hurl a throwing knife at a nearby enemy, effectively allowing him to stealth kill two enemies at once. The other, more advanced takedowns include Death From Above, Death From Below, and Cover Takedown. All of these allow you to take out enemies while you’re hidden and are useful in all sorts of sticky situations.
By defeating one retaliation party, you’ll be able to unlock the Chain Takedown skill which allows Ajay to knife multiple enemies in a row as long as they’re all relatively close to each other. Very handy stuff for stealth-lovers.
