Survival, Ranks & Skills
Survivor, Agility and Power ranks, rescuing survivors, capturing Safe Zones, clearing Quarantine Zones and the craft/lockpick milestones.
Disaster Recovery
BronzeFull guideCollapseGet 15 Relief Packages
Disaster Recovery
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Collect 15 airdropped Relief Packages — the supply crates that drop around the map and are flagged with a marker. Reach each one before rival scavengers loot it.
Tip
Airdrops appear over time as you play, so just detour to every marker you see. They also contain good loot and blueprints, so they're worth grabbing regardless of the trophy.
We're All In This Together
BronzeFull guideCollapseSave 15 survivors from zombies
We're All In This Together
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Save 15 survivors from zombies. Answer the random 'survivor in danger' events (marked on the map/compass) and clear the attacking infected before the survivor dies.
Tip
These events fire constantly while you free-roam, so this pops naturally if you respond to them. Rush in fast — the survivor has a health bar, and letting them die means that event doesn't count.
Homo Homini Lupus Est
BronzeFull guideCollapseSave 15 survivors from Rais's men
Homo Homini Lupus Est
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Save 15 survivors from Rais's men. Same as the zombie rescues, but the attackers are human bandits — answer those events and defeat the thugs before the survivor is killed.
Tip
Human-threat events are rarer than zombie ones, so don't skip any you come across. The bandits also drop ammo, which conveniently supplies your Harran Shooting Club grind.
I'm a Runner and a Fighter
SilverFull guideCollapseComplete 15 Agility or Power Challenges
I'm a Runner and a Fighter
SilverFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Complete 15 Agility or Power Challenges — the optional timed parkour and combat trials scattered around both maps (marked with a stopwatch icon).
Tip
You only need 15 total across either type, so cherry-pick the quick, easy ones near your route. They also give big proficiency XP, feeding the Agile and Strong trophies at the same time.
Trade Company
BronzeFull guideCollapseSell items worth 10,000 dollars
Trade Company
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Sell items worth 10,000 dollars in total to quartermasters. It tracks cumulative sales, so it's about volume over time, not a single big sale.
Tip
Dump junk loot, duplicate weapons and gear you've outgrown every time you visit a merchant. Over a full playthrough you'll cross 10,000 without ever deliberately grinding for it.
Trespassing
SilverFull guideCollapseComplete all Quarantine Zones
Trespassing
SilverFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Complete all Quarantine Zones — the infested indoor GRE zones scattered across both maps. Enter each, reach the objective and grab the loot to clear it.
Tip
Quarantine Zones hold the best blueprints and gear in the game, so clearing them all is worthwhile anyway. You'll also meet your first Screamer inside one, covering Hush, Hush Now.
Now It's Safe
SilverFull guideCollapseCapture all Safe Zones
Now It's Safe
SilverFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Capture all Safe Zones — clear the enemies out of each safehouse and switch its power on to secure it.
Tip
Do these early: each captured safe zone becomes a fast-travel-adjacent respawn and a fence/UV-trap farm for the Electrified! and Enlightened! trophies. Clearing them makes the whole game smoother.
Little Craftsman
BronzeFull guideCollapseCraft your first item
Little Craftsman
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Craft your first item. Unmissable — you craft a medkit or weapon upgrade during the tutorial.
Tip
Get into the habit of crafting early: medkits, lockpicks and throwing stars are all made here, and constant crafting is exactly what Master Crafter's 100-blueprint-uses trophy needs.
Master Crafter
BronzeFull guideCollapseUse Blueprints at least 100 times
Master Crafter
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Use blueprints 100 times. Each craft of a blueprinted item — medkits, throwing knives, weapon mods, lockpicks — counts once toward the total.
Tip
Medkits and throwing stars are cheap and constantly useful, so craft them in batches whenever you're at a workbench. Over a playthrough of regular crafting you'll pass 100 without a dedicated grind.
Open Sesame
BronzeFull guideCollapsePerform 10 successful Lockpicks
Open Sesame
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Successfully pick 10 locks. Practise the lockpick minigame on the many locked chests, vans and doors around Harran.
Tip
Lower-difficulty locks are forgiving and give the same credit, so pop every easy chest you pass. Locked containers also hold good loot, so this pays for itself.
Everybody Knows Kyle
BronzeFull guideCollapseReach Survivor Rank lvl 12
Everybody Knows Kyle
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Reach Survivor Rank level 12. Survivor XP comes from quests, helping survivors and — crucially — being active at night, which doubles the rate.
Tip
If you want it faster, do a night run of activities: the double Survivor XP makes rank 12 arrive quickly, and you can knock out the nocturnal kill trophies on the same outing.
The Legend of Harran
SilverFull guideCollapseReach Survivor Rank lvl 18
The Legend of Harran
SilverFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Reach Survivor Rank level 18 — a good deal higher than rank 12, so it needs sustained play. Night activity's double Survivor XP is the key accelerator.
Tip
Bank a big Survivor-XP payout by doing risky night missions and only cashing in (returning to a safe zone) at dawn — dying at night forfeits a chunk of pending XP, so play it safe near the end of a run.
Agile
BronzeFull guideCollapseReach Agility Prof. Lvl 10
Agile
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Reach Agility proficiency level 10 — earned by running, climbing, jumping and parkour. It rises constantly through normal traversal.
Tip
Never fast-travel when you can free-run instead, and take the rooftop route. Drop-attacks and vaults also grant Agility XP, so the combat trophies feed this too.
Strong
BronzeFull guideCollapseReach Power Prof. Lvl 10
Strong
BronzeFull guideCollapseHow to earn it
Reach Power proficiency level 10 — earned through melee combat, especially with heavy weapons and finishing moves.
Tip
Favour two-handed weapons and kill with melee rather than guns or throws while grinding this. The many kill-count trophies (kicks, grapples, ground pounds) all pour Power XP in as a bonus.
