Maximum Air

Trophy type: Bronze

How to unlock: Be airborne in a vehicle for 4 seconds or more and land without dying.

Commentary: This trophy requires a little bit of preparations. Wait until you get access to the best engine and boost. The next step is to find a good place where you can jump - it doesn't have to be a ramp. We recommend the area marked in red in the picture above - the west edge of Chalkies region. Reach the cliff's edge, drive backwards and get enough momentum by using your boost. You should be airborne for 4 seconds or more. Since this is the west edge of the map, you should land safely on small rocks or on sand.

Up to the Task

Trophy type: Gold

How to unlock: Complete all non-repeating challenges.

Commentary: Non-repeating challenges are those that can be completed again once you finish them. The game features a total of 144 challenges. This is probably the most difficult trophy in Mad Max because it requires a lot of time. You will also need to perform specific actions. Their descriptions can be found in Challenges chapter. Below you can find the most important information about these activities:

1. Check out combat challenges, especially those connected to car combat, before you start playing the game. This is important because you can make things more difficult for you by progressing through the story or by controlling a lot of regions - some enemies may become harder to come across.
2. Don't do anything risky while you are completing the challenges. The game may not count a challenge as completed when Max dies right after finishing it. This means that you will have to try again.
3. Try to complete all simpler challenges while you are still early in the game. Thanks to that you can get a good number of Griffa Tokens which can be used for upgrading your hero.
4. Start sending Scavengers right after reaching the first Stronghold. Remember that these challenges require an Internet connection and they are done when you don't play the game. If you leave them for later, you will only extend the overall time spent on the game.

Wasteland of Opportunities

Trophy type: Bronze

How to unlock: Complete act 2.

Commentary: This trophy is acquired automatically during the main story line.

Wasteland Chef

Trophy type: Bronze

How to unlock: Eat a meal of maggots.
