Killing the skulls in mission 1
Is this possible?

I'm thinking I could do it with infinite ammo bandana and riot SMG (40 ammo mag). I have tried so far and it kinda works, but they don't aim for me. They aim for miller on my back. I then tried putting him down and putting a cardboard box on top of him. This kinda worked but they just teleport to his location after a while and spam him with bullets. I have around 10 secs to distract them.

I will try to upload footage soon if you guys wanna see it.

have u tried putting Miller on D-horse and attacking the skulls with a Brennan or Serval while on horseback? might give you more manueverability.

Bring quiet with sinful butterfly, send her close to the landing zone and use the cover me command.

It's been a while, but can't you throw Miller in a dumpster like you can with guards? That'd be more durable than a box.

You can kill them, but you should to use the C4 trick. Because if you fight them normally, they will just ignore you and kill Kaz.

To do the C4 trick, you need to place C4s in a line (about 10m in length). Then move 20m perpendicularly away from the C4s. Fire a shot at the Skull and let them know where you are. They will immediately form a line in front of you, so make sure you are facing at the C4s. As soon as they form a line, trigger the C4s and it should take them all out at once.

Put Kaz under the bridge close to the base. As long as you don't get too far away the Skulls will ignore Kaz in favor of shooting you which allows you to kill them.

I was thinking D-WALKER would help more, since they have more ammo and damage.

No dumpsters nearby to put him in.

I tried that. But once I wear their health down abit they just teleport to him and shoot him. I don't have enough time to distract unless he's in a box and nearby.

They don't form a line for me, it's a square/circle

There's a dumpster in the base you find miller in. It's by the generator.

No I mean the part where you have to run away from the skulls. I'm going to try and kill them with infinite ammo and bandana.
Seamus Nov 20, 2017 @ 9:38am 
You don't even need infinite ammo, really. I've taken Miller back to the base to fight the skulls before. D Horse is plenty fast for that.
Null Nov 20, 2017 @ 9:43am 
Its very possible to kill them with only the equipment you have when you play the mission for the first time.
matt1934 Nov 21, 2017 @ 10:38pm 
The Brennan can 1-shot them, but you need to chain the shots relatively quickly. I leave Miller on D-Horse's back in case I need to jump and run
RoboCop Nov 21, 2017 @ 11:15pm 
Ok guys so I did it and miller said "you took down the skulls" in shock. Not much else really happened except the fog cleared. Thanks to Victrixy for the C4 method
