Follow this guide to complete Far Cry 4's 'A Short Hunt' mission for Longinus. Learn how to tail smugglers, steal diamonds, and make your drop-off.

Alright, so you've made it to Longinus' missions! These are pretty straightforward gigs from the Golden Path's resident weapons dealer. They generally involve tracking someone down, snagging some diamonds, and then getting them to a drop-off. Think of it as a quick smash-and-grab for the cause.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to follow a smuggler. Head to the waypoint and wait for your target to drive by. It really helps to have a gyrocopter for this part, not just for getting around quickly, but also for staying undetected if you're going for a stealthier approach, though it honestly doesn't matter if they spot you.
  2. 2
    Keep tailing the smuggler until they reach their hideout, which contains a vault. Once they arrive, you'll need to take them out, along with any other enemies guarding the place.
  3. 3
    Loot the smuggler's body – they'll have a key on them that unlocks the vault.
  4. 4
    Head inside the vault and look for a table with some candles on it. The diamonds you need will be right there. Grab them.
  5. 5
    As soon as you exit the vault, expect more enemies to show up. Take them all down.
  6. 6
    Finally, make your way to the waypoint to drop off the diamonds and complete the mission.
Tips
  • Having a gyrocopter makes these missions a breeze, especially for quick travel and maintaining stealth if you choose.
  • Don't worry too much about being detected during the tailing phase; the main objective is getting the diamonds.
  • Be prepared for a fight right after you grab the loot, as enemies will spawn when you exit the vault.
