Unlock five skills in the menu to gain the corresponding tattoos.
Fully Inked [Missable]
Earn every tattoo by learning all the skills.
Certain skills require completing specific challenges before they unlock, such as capturing two outposts undetected or collecting relics. Tackle these prerequisites early while plenty of enemy encounters and outposts remain available.

Purchase weapons, attachments, or ammunition in shops until you have spent a total of $5,000.
Aftermarket Junkie [Online trophy]
Buy all attachments and paint jobs for one weapon.
The 1911 pistol is the cheapest option for this trophy, as it only features a single paint job and a couple of attachments to purchase.
Rebel With a Cause
Liberate 3 outposts.
Liberate any three pirate outposts on the map.
Island Liberator
Liberate all outposts.
Liberate all 34 outposts on the map. This can also be completed after the story.
Unheard [Missable]
Liberate an outpost without triggering an alarm.
Missable! Disable alarm boxes from afar with a suppressed sniper rifle or sneak in to disable the central console manually. Releasing caged predators inside the camp is a reliable way to wipe out defenders without triggering alarms.

Complete a Supply Drop quest.
Look for the blue cross icons next to unlocked radio towers. Follow the smoke flares along the marked route before time runs out.
In Cold Blood
Complete a WANTED Dead quest.
The marked VIP commander must be executed using a melee takedown; eliminating them with firearms or explosives fails the contract.

Join an Expert poker game in Thurston Town, save your game beforehand, and push all-in on the first round until you secure the required profit.
Hunter Hunted
Lure and kill a predator.
