Far Cry 5 – Unlocking Perks
/A New Character Progression System
Character progression available in Far Cry 5 differs from the ones offered by the previous games. You don’t level up your character by using points received after completing missions. Instead of that you have to get perk points (skills) which can be done in various ways.
Below you can find the most important methods:
➤Completing challenges – You can check them in the tab located in your character’s menu. You receive 1-3 points per challenge.
They are very diverse, e.g. you have to kill enemies in a certain way or hunt specific animals. Focus on the easiest challenges right from the start. Thanks to that you will be able to buy a few important skills.
➤Finding perk books – They are in, e.g. some of the prepper stashes. Each book gives you one skill point.
➤Special rewards for certain quests – The game has missions that can reward you with one or more skill points.
Note – Don’t waste skill points on buying perks one after another. Choose those that are most helpful to you.
