Additional information about the lieutenants in Far Cry 5

1. The final confrontation with Joseh Seed will start once you deal with all three lieutenants.
2. At first the game might block access to more valuable perks. If you want to unlock them, you must eliminate the lieutenants.
3. Progress in weakening a region of a lieutenant can be checked on the map. It is represented by the bar in the bottom right corner of the screen (as shown in the picture). You must fully fill this bar.
