Far Cry 5: Hambearger Live Event Guide
This week in Far Cry 5, it’s time to put your hunting skills to the test in the Hambearger Live Event. Your challenge: hunt down some of the toughest creatures in the game – bears! But there’s a twist: you must use handguns to take them down. Completing the event will reward you with some cool loot, but don’t expect anything too groundbreaking. If you’re looking for an easy way to complete this challenge and earn those rewards, check out our Hambearger Live Event guide below for all the details.
Hambearger Live Event Progression
Before diving into the action, it’s important to understand the event’s progression and the loot you can unlock. This week’s challenge is all about bear hunting, and the more you kill, the better your rewards. Here’s what you need to accomplish:
Personal Progression:
- 2 Kills = 50 Silver Bars
- 4 Kills = D50 “Sovereign” Pistol
Community Progression (PC):
- 125K Kills = 50 Silver Bars
- 250K Kills = Tracey Outfit
Event Instructions:
“Feeling paw? Get some bear meat and sell it for extra cash. But bear with me – use handguns to kill the bears!”
How to Complete the Hambearger Live Event
The Hambearger challenge requires you to hunt bears using only handguns, so here’s a detailed breakdown of how to efficiently tackle it:
- Prepare Your Loadout:
- Equip a handgun with plenty of ammunition. The Magnum .44 works great due to its high damage, but any powerful handgun will suffice. Ensure you have enough ammo before heading out, as you’ll be taking on multiple bears.
- Find the Right Spot:
- Head to a known bear hunting location. American black bears typically spawn in forested and mountainous areas. Popular spots include the Whitetail Mountains and the Holland Valley. If you’re having trouble finding bears, activate the Ultimate Hunter perk, which will highlight animals around you.
- Hunt the Bears:
- Once you locate a bear, engage it from a safe distance. Be patient—these creatures can take a few hits before going down, and you’ll need to land your shots precisely. Use cover to avoid getting swarmed by the bear, and try not to let them get too close, as their attacks can be devastating.
- Collect the Bear Meat:
- After taking down a bear, make sure to collect the Bear Meat (a required item for this event). This is crucial for progressing through the Live Event. The meat will be marked clearly, so you won’t miss it.
- Repeat the Process:
- Head back to your hunting area, and if needed, reset the location to spawn more bears. Repeat the process until you’ve killed four bears to complete the Personal Progression. Don’t forget to loot the Bear Meat each time.
Accessing the Rewards
After you’ve successfully killed four bears and completed the personal progression, it’s time to unlock the rewards. The community will need to reach 250K kills for the Tracey Outfit, but here’s how you can grab your personal loot:
- D50 “Sovereign” Pistol:
- Head to any Gun Shop and open the Weapons menu. From there, select Sidearms, and you’ll find the D50 “Sovereign” pistol at the bottom of the list. This powerful handgun packs a punch and will come in handy for future hunts.
- Tracey Outfit:
- Once the community hits 250K kills, you’ll unlock the Tracey Outfit. Access this from the Character Customization menu under the Special Outfit tab. This outfit allows you to look like the character Tracey, adding a fun visual twist to your character.
The Hambearger Live Event is one of the easier ones to complete, as it only requires you to hunt bears using handguns. While the challenge itself isn’t too tough, the rewards are a bit underwhelming. Still, it’s a nice break from more complicated Live Events and a great way to stock up on Silver Bars and unlock a cool new pistol.
