Collectibles | The Basics Far Cry 4 Guide

You can buy maps from every merchant and from every weapon cabinet from the outposts which you have taken over.

While playing the game you can find five types of collectibles. Four of them (which are letters, journals, Mani wheels and posters) will be marked on your map when you will buy the special map named "Kyrat Items". Another thing is the location of Masks of Yalung since the bought map will mark only the approximate location of the mask you are looking for.

Kyrat is divided into four parts: the southern part, the central part, the northern part and the northern-eastern part. Buying a Kyrat Items map marks only collectibles which you can find on a specific area. For finding these objects you will receive experience points, achievements and karma points or new weapons. Additionally collecting the entire set is necessary if you want to reach the 100% completion of the game. Maps will be 25% cheaper if you will reach the 8th level of karma.

On the bottom of the map you can see your current coordinates.

In specific parts of this guide you will find the coordinates (described as X, Y) related with every collectible. To find out what is your current position you need to enter the map menu where you will find this information in the right bottom corner of the screen.

Mohan Ghale's Journal.

In the Kyrat you can find 20 journals which belong to your father. You can always get an access to the entries from the found diaries in the collection menu. When you will collect all twenty of them you will be able to read the story of your parents and will also let you read some information about the Kyrat from few years ago when the Pagan Min was taking over control. After you will collect four journals you will unlock a unique weapon - the 87.

Masks of Yalung

Look for the masks in different, sometimes difficult to reach places.

You need to remove 55 masks. You can destroy them with the specific button or simply by shooting them with a weapon. When you will get to the location in which a mask is hidden the area in which you need to find it will be marked on your mini-map with the blue color. When you will be close to a mask you should try to listen carefully to the music (just like in the "Hunt the Thimble" game). The closer you are to a mask the more precise is the specific sound which you will hear. After you will destroy the 20th mask you will unlock a unique weapon called the Trooper. After you will destroy all 55 masks you will receive the unlimited supply of "Guns for Hire" tokens.

Mani Wheels

A Mani wheel.

To "collect" the wheel you need to spin it. Just stand next to it and press the right button. For every spun wheel you will receive karma points. In the entire Kyrat you may find 40 wheels.

Lost Letters

A bag with a lost letter.

The bags with the lost letters are hidden mostly in caves and caverns. You need to find a bag first and from the inside you can take out a letter. You can find 20 letters in total.

Propaganda Posters

One of the posters.

In Kyrat are even 150 propaganda posters to find. They are hidden in different places but mostly on the walls of buildings. You can pluck them away with a specific button or destroy them by using, for example, a flamethrower. If you will pluck even the first poster you will unlock in shops the Stormer weapon. Plucking next posters will allow you to destroy the enemy propaganda camps.
