There is one area (Cliffside Bunker) that cannot be fast traveled to but is still accessible by traveling on foot from the neighboring area (Shipwreck Beach).

Gamerscore Worth: 15G

How to Earn: There are only 4 weapons in the game that you can upgrade. The Bow, Shotgun, Rifle, and Handgun. There are several upgrades for each weapon and you have to gain a lot of salvage in order to upgrade everything. You can only start fully upgrading weapons as you find "parts" for them. The parts seem random and as you loot things and fallen enemies you will randomly pick them up.

14. Big Game Hunter
Description: 10 large animals killed and looted.
Gamerscore Worth: 15G
How to Earn: You will start finding animals that count towards this achievement very early on. They spawn frequently and you can revisit areas later that have them. The below list are the types of animals that count towards this achievement, though you'll likely get them all off of Deer and Wolves. Just remember that after you kill them, you must go loot them or it will not count.

-Wolf
-Boar

15. Tastes Like Chicken!
Description: 10 small animals killed and looted.
Gamerscore Worth: 15G
How to Earn: You will start finding animals that count towards this achievement very early on. They spawn frequently and you can revisit areas later that have them. The below list are the types of animals that count towards this achievement, though you'll likely get them all off of Rabbits though Crabs are easier to hit you won't encounter them until the second half of the game.

-Rabbit
-Chicken
-Rat
-Crab

16. Feather Duster
Description: 10 flying animals killed and looted.
Gamerscore Worth: 15G
How to Earn: You will start finding animals that count towards this achievement very early on. They spawn frequently and you can revisit areas later that have them. The below list are the types of animals that count towards this achievement. Just remember that after you kill them, you must go loot them or it will not count. This can be tough sometimes with birds since they can be in spots you cannot reach. You can kill them while they are on the ground or flying, and with any weapon. To save ammo, you can kill them with Rope Pull when you learn it.

-Crows
-Seagulls

17. Sharp Shooter
Description: 50 headshot kills performed in the single player campaign.
Gamerscore Worth: 15G
How to Earn: This can be done with any weapon on human enemies as long as you get the "headshot" bonus points for experience (shows up on top left when you get a kill). While going for your other weapon kills, you should have no problems getting this. The easiest kills for this are probably the unaware enemies but you should have no issues aiming at other enemies while they take cover. Upgrading weapons can help, but not necessary.

Note: You cannot reload checkpoints to gain extra kills towards your stats. These must all be done on unique enemies.

18. Predator
Description: 50 enemies killed with the bow.
Gamerscore Worth: 10G
How to Earn: The bow is the first weapon you get. Ammo shouldn't be too much of an issue, especially considering when you fast travel, the ammo respawns. There is also a skill that allows you to gather the arrows back off the bodies of dead enemies. You should try to stack this with unaware kills and headshots. Getting kills resulting in explosions (like fire arrows in oil) do not count. The arrow must be the shot that is the killing blow. The bow is in the D-Pad Up slot and you can choose your arrow type there when you get the option.

Note: You cannot reload checkpoints to gain extra kills towards your stats. These must all be done on unique enemies.

19. Equalizer
Description: 75 enemies killed with the rifle.
Gamerscore Worth: 10G
How to Earn: The rifle is the third weapon you get and is in the D-Pad Right slot. You must get the most kills with this gun out of all of the kill based achievements. Upgrading it will help since you'll be using a lot. You should focus on getting these kills randomly when in gun fights when stealth is not an option and there are many enemies to dispose of.

Note: You cannot reload checkpoints to gain extra kills towards your stats. These must all be done on unique enemies.

19. Widowmaker
Description: 40 enemies killed with the shotgun.
Gamerscore Worth: 10G
How to Earn: The shotgun is in the D-Pad Left slot and is obtained in the temple area. It is a weapon you will need to shoot certain obstacles to get collectibles and to survive certain situations. It is effective when killing, so you should have no trouble getting this achievement.

Note: You cannot reload checkpoints to gain extra kills towards your stats. These must all be done on unique enemies.

20. Gunslinger
Description: 35 enemies killed with the pistol.
Gamerscore Worth: 10G
How to Earn: Very early in the game you will obtain the pistol. Use it on 35 enemies. Aim for the head to preserve ammo and to gain head shot kills for the achievement based on those. You can upgrade the gun with salvage at a camp to make it better. To select this weapon, press D-Pad Down.

Note: You cannot reload checkpoints to gain extra kills towards your stats. These must all be done on unique enemies.

21. Epic Fumble
Description: Forced an enemy to drop dynamite that killed two people.
Gamerscore Worth: 15G
How to Earn: In Shantytown, you will start to see enemies who throw dynamite. To obtain this, you must get a total of 2 kills with the dynamite that is dropped. It's best to shoot the enemy throwing it in the body so that you don't kill him by accident. You can also use the rope pull if you are worried about it. Focus on getting this after a section or two after you first see the dynamite being thrown. There are some obvious spots that it will work, but others are too spread out. Remember you can always reload checkpoints.

22. Get Over Here!
Description: 5 enemies rope pulled off edges.
Gamerscore Worth: 20G
How to Earn: You will learn how to use the rope pull eventually in the story. Once you know it, you can aim your bow at enemies and press Right Bumper to shoot out a roped arrow. You can then pull them towards you. The enemy must be close to an edge/ledge and fall to their death. You can gain the first couple right after the tutorial. The rest can easily be obtained in Shanty town as long as you pay attention and use this ability on any enemy close to a ledge.

Note: This must be done to different enemies. You cannot reload checkpoint and repeat this over and over again on the same enemy.

23. Opportunist
Description: 25 unaware enemies killed.
Gamerscore Worth: 15G
How to Earn: An unaware enemy is obvious. They aren't attacking you and are in a calm state. You can kill them with a head shot or sneak up behind them and silent kill them using the Y prompt. If there are multiple enemies around, you will need to use the bow. If you look in the DLC area of the game, you may also purchase (using Microsoft Points) a silenced pistol. This is not needed, however.

Note: You cannot reload checkpoints to gain extra kills towards your stats. These must all be done on unique enemies.

24. Down and Dirty
Description: 15 finishers performed.
Gamerscore Worth: 15G
How to Earn: A finisher is performed when an enemy gets injured and is briefly on the ground on one knee. The injury can be caused by shooting a non-head shot or by attacking with the axe Y when you obtain it after upgrading your skills to Tier 2. This also happens if you stab them in the knee with your arrow (a countering skill). Once the enemy is down, go up quickly and press the prompt which is Y to perform a finisher. If you want, you can easily just stack this with countering since there is an achievement for getting 25 counters. Just counter and they will be on the ground and you can finish them. You will likely get this achievement before unlocking the skills that let you counter with the various weapons.

Note: This must be done to different enemies. You cannot repeat this over and over again on the same enemy.

25. Deadeye
Description: 10 enemies shot off zip lines.
Gamerscore Worth: 20G
How to Earn: Enemies can go on zip lines, and will do so when rushing to attack you. Shoot them on their way to instantly kill them. This achievement will not count the enemies that are already dropping when you shoot them. They must be actually on the line. When you get to sections where there are many enemies on zip lines, kill as many as you can. This will be very difficult to get post-campaign or from re-visiting areas later. If you miss a lot, go ahead and just reload your checkpoint and try again.

Note: This must be done to different enemies. You cannot repeat this over and over again on the same enemy.

26. Former Adventurer
Description:
Gamerscore Worth: 20G
How to Earn: To use a dodge counter, you must first obtain the skill through the Brawler skill tree. There are upgrades for this, but you don't have to worry about not being able to get the achievement if you upgrade. They still count. To use this skill, when a melee enemy attacks you, press B to dodge, and then the Y when prompted.

Note: This must be done to different enemies. You cannot repeat this over and over again on the same enemy.

27. One Smart Cookie
Description: One optional tomb completed.
Gamerscore Worth: 20G
How to Earn: See the "Intellectually Superior" achievement description.

28. Intellectually Superior
Description: All optional tombs completed.
Gamerscore Worth: 50G
How to Earn: You'll come across optional tombs in the game. They are very short, straightforward, and easily done. You will get these on your map later with a skill you can purchase, but you may as well do them as you go along.

Tomb of the Unworthy:

You will see a cage hanging with bodies wrapped up and attached. Jump on this piece and quickly jump to the next part ahead. Light your torch and jump back. Light the bodies on fire. Now go to the other side where there is another cage and knock it off. This completes the puzzle. Now just jump on the hanging cage and wall climb up to the area that has the chest.

Hall of Ascension:

There is a window blowing wind and a platform in the middle. Lower the window panels via the crank under the window. Run to the platform. Look to the window and you should see 3 panels. Once the first one pops open, start turning the crank on the platform to raise it. Quickly get on top of it. When the final panel of the window opens, it will blow the platform close to the wall. Jump onto the wall there and shimmy around to the top part where there is a tunnel leading to the chest.

Chamber of Judgement:

When you get inside, you'll see fire and gas cans. There is a statue in the middle back. Get on top of the platform and look at the statue. Turn right and see a tire from an airplane hanging. Use your rope arrow on it to break the platform with a canister on it. Throw all the yellow canisters around up onto the left platform that has a canister already on it (this overloads the platform and it breaks). Now throw three of them on the platform on the right to break it as well. Take all four and put them on the end of the teetering wreckage piece. You can now use this as a ramp to jump to the wall with your axe. That completes the tomb.

The Flooded Vault:

You'll get to a part with water and electricity which is making the water dangerous to walk through. You must shoot the barrier with a shotgun across from the raft. Burn the part next to the raft to untie it. Now go to where you use the shotgun and rope pull the raft to you. Now use it to jump to the other side. Pull the top part and let the electric thing go up in the air. Now run across the water. Pull the raft from this new safe point near the electric part. Raise it with rope pull again, and position the raft below it. When it falls this time, the water will now be safe to cross and finish the tomb.

Well of Tears:

When you get inside the tomb, you'll see a very obvious puzzle. There is a lift that is higher than you can get to. Throw the canisters scattered around the area on top of it to weigh it down. Get on it and throw the canisters off. Now run up the slope and around to jump on it as it raises, and jump to the next location up. The chest is right up there.

Stormguard Sanctum:

There are gases blocking your way after you shoot your fire arrows to get rid of the obstacle. Shoot another fire arrow inside the gas to cause an explosion. Now quickly climb up and continue the path. At the top is a beam. Look across and shoot a fire arrow to block the second obstacle. Now just jump over the gap and you'll find the chest.

Temple of the Handmaidens:

You will see a cage. Raise it with the crank nearby and you will see a buoy float under. Quickly jump up to the section on the left. The buoy will rotate the piece there and you can then use the pole to jump over the gap. The next pole has to be moved twice, so you will need to do this part somewhat fast. Rope pull it once and the buoy will take care of the second rotation. Now use it to jump to the rocky section you can use your axe on and climb up.

29. Unfinished Business
Description: One challenge completed.
Gamerscore Worth: 20G
How to Earn: See the "Inconceivable!" achievement description.

30. Inconceivable!

You will have to do some of your own exploration for these.

31. A Survivor Is Born
Description: Game completed.
Gamerscore Worth: 75G

Description: 20 enemy players killed with a turret in multiplayer.
Gamerscore Worth: 20G
How to Earn: In multiplayer, you will find turrets on some levels that will let you shoot and kill other players.

-Team Deathmatch - All about kills.
-Cry for Help - One team has to place batteries into circles (like king of the hill). Other team must kill them.
-Free for All - Hardest one to get a win off of as you will not be able to depend on other players. This could be frustrating.

Semi Boostable (depends on amount of people in party)

This game is ranked yes, but you can have parties. You can even switch teams and give yourself an advantage. If you have a full team, you can boost. If only a few players are in your party, you may get randoms and have to actually try a little harder. If this happens, take turns being the "jerk" on the opposite team and giving your party kills.

39. Sole Survivor

Online private match boostable (2 people needed)

This can all be done in one session with a partner. Stand at the bottom of the rope and have the other person shoot you until you are low on health. Now jump up on the rope and hold X.

This is a missable achievement if you don't remember to do it when the time comes. Also remember that if you die or reload your checkpoint, don't forget to talk to them again if it starts you near them. Talking to everyone on this list will get you the achievement. It is possible that only the conversations that lead to the game saving are required, but it's better to play it safe than sorry.

Highly Missable Achievement Warning

Conversation Set 1: After you obtain a med pack and heal up Roth, there will be a brief cut scene and he will give you a climbing tool. Keep talking to him while he is sitting by the fire.
