Balance of Power missions | Main Quests Far Cry 4 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Missions from this section are the ones in which you have to choose between Sabal and Amita. It means that depending on your decision, you will be completing a different task. It also influences the missions that will come later, depending on who is the leader of the Golden Path. Completing a mission for one leader sets him on the position of a leader until the next mission of this type. The last choice is the most important. The person supported by you will become the leader of the Golden Path.
Choice no. 1
You have to decide what your next task should be - retrieving valuable information (choosing Amita Mission: Hunt or Be Hunted) or defending the camp (Sabal Mission: Rebel Yell). Your choice will influence the following events and also change the next mission (A Cultural Exchange).
Choice no. 2
Another clash between the leaders will be about the opium plantation. Amita will want to capture it (Reclamation) and Sabal will want to destroy it (Burn it Down). Your choice will also influence the next missions to some extent: The Sleeping Saints and City of Pain.
Choice no. 3
Your third choice between the missions of Amity and Sabal concerns the drug factory. If you support Amita your mission will be to seize the factory, to be able to use it later on, to your advantage. (the "Advanced Chemistry" mission). Sabal, on the other hand, wants you to raze the factory to the ground (the "Basic Chemistry" mission). Your choice affects one of the following mission ("A Key to the North") to a minimum extent.
Choice no. 4
It is the most important choice that projects onto the ending. Amita wants you to destroy all of the Jalendu temples, which is going to liberate the women of Kyrat from superstitious practices (the "A Cultural Exchange" mission). Sabal, on the other hand, wants to spare the temple and unify the people under the common idea of tradition and former beliefs (the "Cease and Desist" mission). Your choice will affect which mission you will receive next - "Valley of Death" if you support Amita or "Take Cover", in the case of lending your support to Sabal. It goes without saying that also the opponent that you kill in "To Reap What you Sow". Is different And finally,: it is your choice that determines who takes on the leadership of the Golden Path and, after you defeat Pagan, of the entire Kyrat. You will be able to meet up with that NPC after the game ends (see the description below).
Last meeting with Amita
If in the final choice, you've supported Amita (Culture Wars mission), you can meet here right after the plot ends (no matter of what ending you choose). Go to Thirty and you will see a cut-scene in which Amita orders the Golden Path soldiers to force children to work on the plantation. The one that you've helped to reclaim in one of the missions.
