- Complete all missions except Extreme, Subsistence and Total Stealth Variants.
- Complete all important Side Ops (the yellow ones.)
- Build all 28 platforms of Mother Base. (You can build FOBs online to get the required materials faster and easier.)
You can earn this with any staff member and any mission. There are a several missions which can be completed relativity easily and quickly.
- Mission 1 Phantom Limbs - By destroying the Anti-Radar in Da Ghwandai Khar on your initial playthrough you can then go straight there deal with the guards, rescue Miller and call for extraction without ever having to deal with the skulls.
- Mission 3 A Heroes Way - Make sure to bring a lethal sniper with a decent scope. Head to Da Shago Kallai and find a good spot where you see the commander. You can snipe him through a window or wait until he comes outside to address his soldiers, then call a nearby extraction.
- Mission 4 C2W - Destroy the Anti-Air Radar at Eastern Communications Outpost on your initial play through and then subsequent playthroughs choose the Landing Zone at the outpost. Use the helicopters minigun to destroy the 3 Satellites with ease.
- Mission 8 Occupation Forces - Bring D-Horse (You will need Fulton + )and head west from your insertion point, you should come across some ruined buildings and a crumbling stone half wall, put D-Horse in the middle of the road then hide and wait. The Colonel and his escort will arrive shortly. When the first Tank stops quickly run and Fulton it followed by the truck and the other tank. If the truck tries to drive away shoot one of the tires to cause it to spin out. You can then extract at a nearby LZ.
- Mission 9 Back Up Back Down - This requires the Fulton +2 upgrade or wormhole. Go to the road North of Yahko Oboo Supply Outpost and put D-Horse in the middle of the road near the hill. Wait by the side of the road in a cardboard box. When a vehicle gets close and stops go to it and Fulton it. Go onto the hill and use a phantom cigar to end the countdown and extract.
- Mission 10 Angel with Broken Wings - Go to the road just north of Lamar Khaate Palace, put D-Horse in the middle of the road. Fulton the escort (requires Fulton +2) and grab Malak. Extract at the nearby LZ.
- Mission 14 Lingua Franca - Bring D-Dog and go to the area north west of Kiziba camp. There you will find the Viscount and a lone guard. Deal with the guard and extract him at the nearby landing zone.
- Mission 27 Root Cause - Bring D-Dog and quickly make your way along the high path on the right. Once you get close notice the prisoner is trying to enter a truck. Quickly grab him and place him in the passenger seat then drive out of the extraction zone.
By completing 3 missions with a staff member they gain a medal which gives them a permanent boost to their stats, although this should be done after the story is completed I will not say why as there are story spoilers.
Accomplished
Not too difficult as you just have to focus on the main objective, although the Extreme, Subsistence and Total Stealth may prove challenging, please see Accomplished and Elite if you are struggling. Please see Disappearance and Truth for how to unlock mission 45 and 46.
Executed
You'll likely accomplish some of them on your first play through but it's best to save them for post game when you've researched better and more useful equipment. Some cannot be completed without getting Fulton +2 which requires a special staff member acquired about halfway through the game. You'll also need the wormhole which requires a late game key item.
Prologue Awakening

- Side Op 151-157 Target Practice (Command Platform, R&D Platform, Support Unit Platform, Base Development Platform, Intel Team Platform, Medical platform, Combat Unit Platform)
Captured
Captured any guard post or outpost during Phantom Limbs.
Deployment
The Key Dispatch Missions are marked by a yellow dot. However the final mission cannot be completed until Huey completes the Battle Gear.
Intruder
To start invading FOBs you must first complete mission 22. Choose an FOB and deploy, once you enter the wormhole and when you are on the platform the trophy should pop and you can then abort the infiltration,
Cry Havoc
After completing Mission 4 C2W, you can find D-Dog North of Spugmay Keep and Southeast of guard post 23, Fulton the puppy back to Mother Base. Keep doing missions and Ocelot will update you on his growth and training.
Speechless
Complete Mission 11 Cloaked in Slience and bring Quiet back to Mother Base. Complete some missions until you unlock side op 111, complete this and she will be available for deployment.
Trusty Steed
This should come naturally as you play since D-Horse is the first buddy you have access too and is very useful. Complete missions with D-Horse as your buddy and don't let him get hurt.
Man's Best Friend
Complete missions with D-Dog as your buddy, prevent him from getting hurt, give him orders, praise him and pet him occasionally.
War Buddy
Complete missions with Quiet as your buddy, have her scout guard posts and outposts for you, order her to take down enemies for you (might be best to wait until you get her non-lethal sniper) and pick up supply drops she leaves for you. You can also visit her cell on the medical platform.
Extraction
Starting out feel free to Fulton any soldier you come across to build your ranks but late game only extract soldiers with at minimum an A+ stat. You will run out of space quickly especially if you are not building FOB platforms.
Interrogation
Before you can interrogate a soldier you must Complete Side Op 1 to extract the Russian interpreter. There are 2 ways of doing this, first you slowly sneak up then hold them up by aiming your weapon or you can tranq them the wake them up and hold them up that way.
To The Rescue
The earliest female prisoner in the game I can think of is in Mission 9 Back Up Back Down. She is wandering the desert south of Lamar Khaate Palace.
Platoon
Fulton every soldier you come across in early game.
Battalion
In order to do this you must build more platforms on Mother Base to increase staff capacity.
Army
Miller will automatically assign units based on their best skill and dismiss staff when you reach capacity. Late game you'll only want to extract A+ staff, you can also do deployment missions for a chance at staff members.
Enhancement
Develop everything as soon it becomes available.
Reinforcement
You can develop upgrades for your helicopter and buddy equipment, not just guns and other personal equipment.
Locked and Loaded
At this point you will likely need staff with specific skills, if you go to a mission debriefing it shows what skills prisoners in the mission have.
Architect
This may take a bit of grinding for the necessary materials but if you have an FOB it will automatically mine materials for you.
Deterrence
Developing a nuke costs:
- 750,000 GMP
- 75,000 Fuel resources
- 50,000 Minor Metals
And it takes 24 hours to develop. You must connected online in order to complete the development.
Disarmament
You can disarm the nuke you developed but be quick in case someone steals it from your FOB. If this happens you can steal one or develop another one.
Prosperity
You earn GMP from completing missions, your staff will automatically collect a set amount of GMP, collected Diamonds give GMP and you can do deployment missions for GMP.
Conversion
Medium and Large animals can be tranq'd and fultoned. Most small animals will need to be captured in cages. You'll see what you caught when returning to the ACC.
Collector
Key items are collected in main missions and side ops, by collecting all invoices (these are found on the fast travel locations nearby outposts) and getting all S Ranks. Blueprints are collected in missions and side ops and rewarded from dispatch missions.
