Very helpful. I think the OP was looking for something a little more in depth...

I don't follow.

Are they asking for help on how to kill the skulls? That's not what they asked.

kill or knock out will make them leap a bit further into the jungle towards the bridge leading to the mannor, you can fulton their bodies on ce they jum paway but be fast. A tank works ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ wonders for getting in there without getting hit as their rifles do ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ NOTHING to the tank. Use a 50 cal, abuse their lazy ai via cliffs and taking sneak shots, use decoys as well and for the love of all that is right WATCH YOUR BACK WITH NVGS for those stupid sneaky ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. DD is best here IMO

With the anti-material rifle.

Also, if you equip the max lvl battle dress, you're a 2 shot death instead of 1 shot, that helps a lot.

Aside from that, just use the same strategy you used against Quiet.

ok first: dont their bodys dissapear if you take too long? like in the metallic archaeae (whatever) mission, it happend to me once, i took too long with the fulton thing and 2 of em just.... flew away.

and second: my... strategy against quiet? mine was requesting supply drops on her o.o
i doubt that 'that' will work

You don't need to extract all 4, just one.
Although, these sniping skulls never escape the scene after dying so you can extract all 4 anytime you want.

To kill them easily, use Brennan sniper. On the spot the cutscene begins where they appear, hide behind a rock and spot laserlines from their snipers to determine their position.
Stay in crawl position as long as you canm mark them then dod the headshot if possible (it's not hard).
Keep shooting, eventually one of them will come near you (you'll hear it and see smoke nearby), go in crouch position and move right-left till CQC prompt appears then leftclick it to put the sniper in vulnerable position where you can put a bullet in her head.

The rest is easy.

Note:
I tried CGM on them, it sucks since it fires several missiles of which only one hits but the rest miss the sniping skull.
I never tried killer bee that's homing onemissile thing so can't say if it's even faster way to nail 'em compared to brennan.

Also I never tried to do it during night with IC goggles on instead of tracking them through their lasertargetting system. Maybe that also speeds up the process.

I am going to try the rocket launcher now just to test it, the FB launcher is my go to choice when ♥♥♥♥ has way too much hp but not too much armor, 50 cal semi auto for those with armor

Go around them via the river for the S-rank, bring a stealth camo for the tasks
If you don't like crutches, refer to the posts above

Nope.

After they die, their body jumps to somewhere, just look your map.

They only disappear for good after you walk away from the woods.

You need a homing missile. The one that can lock on the target. They're superfast just like Quiet.
That's why I suggested Killer Bee - by holding rightclick it'll lock on the target it's aimed at.

OK, testing this now with the brennan rifle.
and yes, you have to extract ALL 4 of em, not just one
joxertm22 Sep 26, 2015 @ 1:59pm 
That's odd, I'm pretty sure the optional objective kicks on me with just one extracted.
Or was it the other objective with just one killed?
Sorry, maybe I mixed them. :(
