Introduction
It's no surprise that we're cautious with film tie-in video games in the 21st century. After all, we have been burned so many times in years gone by, it’s hard not to be. Fortunately though, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is pretty damn good, which we have to say, is pretty damn surprising.
Firstly, it's bloody beautiful, and Pandora itself is a technical masterpiece. Secondly, Avatar 2 is a little bit of Far Cry, a little bit of Horizon: Forbidden West, and a little bit of Mirror’s Edge (thanks to the game's fluent parkour). And thirdly, it’s a whole lot of fun. Plus, it’s a fairly easy list.
In all, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a damn fine video game, with lots of fun to be had, and a nice cool 1,000 to go along with it. You can’t really complain about that, can you?
Walkthrough
To unlock the full 1,000 in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, you're going to need to complete the majority of the game's content - the only thing you won't need to do is collect all of some of the game's collectibles, and do all or many of the side quests. For that, then, you're looking at around 40-50 hours, as there’s tons to collect and uncover - after all, it's a pretty big map.
It's not a particularly hard 1,000 either. In fact, the hardest aspect is the game itself. Even on easy it's not a walk in the park. Thankfully, though, you can't really miss anything, although we're having issues with the One with the Clans (36G) achievement (post-game), which we’ll touch upon in the achievement guide entry below.
So, you can play the game, get collectibles as you go, or approach it however you please. We would, however, recommend the following approach…
Step 1 - Play the Campaign
The only bit of advice we'd give as you're playing through the campaign is non-essential advice but it will help you save time in the long run.
That advice is to clear and collect the following as you go:
- Seek out Ancestor Skills
- Clear RDA Installations and Outposts as you uncover them
- Seek out Bellsprigs and Tasryu Saplings
- Collect Windswept Kites, Windswept Dolls and Treasure Hunt Comics (all “Lost Items”)
- Collect Audio Logs and Notes
- Complete all Data Collectors
- Tune all Aeolian Wind Flutes.
- Complete all Sarentu Totems
- Complete 10 Budding Watchers
- Complete all Bladewing Trails
- Visit all Na’vi encampments and interact with the Community Basket - if you have the item, deliver it to the basket too
And finally, you’re going to want to scan plants and animals as you go too, to work towards both:
- Wildlife Expert (20G) - Unlock 20 Hunter's Guide entries for gatherable wildlife.
- Great Gatherer (20G) - Unlock 30 Hunter's Guide entries for gatherable plants.
On top of the above, you’ll unlock the following story-related achievements as you progress through the story:
Story-related Achievements:
- First Strike (20G) - Complete the quest Becoming.
- Cooking Pot Pro (20G) - Unlock three recipes for specialty dishes (you’ll unlock this one naturally as you play)
- Aranahe Alliance (20G) - Complete the quest Pushing Back.
- Stronger Together (20G) - Complete the quest Combined Forces.
- Clearing the Mist (20G) - Complete the quest Revelations.
- Eco Warrior (36G) - Complete the quest Rising Pressure.
- Our Reclamation (55G) - Complete the main campaign.
Step 2 - Wrap Up Everything Else
Once you’ve finished the story, it’s time to wrap up the following collectibles (all of which we discussed earlier). They are as follows:
Collectible Achievements:
- Talk to the Ancestors (20G) - Unlock three Ancestor Skills.
- Sprouting Potential (20G) - Touch 20 Tarsyu Saplingss.
- Full Bloom (20G) - Touch 20 Bellsprigs.
- Tethered Kites (36G) - Collect all windswept kites.
- Doll Collector (36G) - Collect all windswept dolls.
- Data Retriever (36G) - Complete all recon retrievals.
- A Good Listener (36G) - Collect 30 audio logs.
- Story Guardian (36G) - Collect 30 notes.
- Father and Son in the Stars (36G) - Collect all treasure hunt comics.
- In Harmony (36G) - Tune all aeolian wind flutes.
- Vision of the Ancestors (36G) - Complete all Sarentu totem interactions.
- Mushroom Navigator (36G) - Complete 10 Mycelium Network activities.
- Fleet-Footed (36G) - Follow all the bladewing moths to their nests.
And finally, that leaves a handful of other general achievements you’ll have to mop up. You will have to go out of your way for more than a few of them, but some you can definitely get naturally.
RPG/Open-World Achievements:
- Peak Performance (55G) - Unlock an Apex Skill.
- Apprentice Crafter (20G) - Craft a weapon or gear piece of 'superior' rarity or higher.
- Kinglor Carer (36G) - Complete the final Steady Wings side quest
- Becoming Na'vi (20G) - Unlock 3 skills in each skill tree
- No Easy Prey (55G) - Defeat a thanator (non-feral)
- Little by Little (36G) - Defeat 10 RDA installations.
- Hit Them Where It Hurts (36G) - Defeat five RDA outposts.
- Reclaim Pandora (55G) - Reach an air quality level of 100%.
- One with the Clans (36G) - Complete part 3 of the Aranahe Community, Zeswa Community, and Kame'tire Community side quests.
The two that are going to take an absolute age and will likely be the last 2 you unlock are Reclaim Pandora (55G) and One with the Clans (36G). Now, that’s for a few reasons. Firstly, the Reclaim Pandora (55G) achievement has you scouring the map and destroying every trace of the RDA (both Installations and Outposts). Secondly, the One with the Clans (36G) achievement has you delivering progressively trickier materials to various Na’vi communities dotted around Pandora - which you have to do 3 levels of for each of the 3 main tribes. There’s also a caveat on that too, which we’ll get to in the achievement guide for that achievement specifically.
And before we wrap up, you’ll see them linked throughout the guide (both above and below), but we’ve also prepped a load of supplementary guides too:
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Windswept Dolls Locations
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Treasure Hunt Comics Locations (and Computer Terminal Locations)
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Windswept Kites Locations
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Notes and Audio Logs Locations
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Data Collector Locations and Solutions
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Sarentu Totem Locations and Solutions
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Aeolian Wind Flutes Locations
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Bladewing Trail Locations
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Budding Watchers Locations
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All RDA Installations and Outposts Locations
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - All Ancestor Skills Locations
Conclusion
So, there we have it, folks. If you stick to the above you should blitz through Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora in no time whatsoever. And by no time, we mean 40-50 hours, but that’s entirely dependent on how efficient you are when it comes to clearing all the game's collectibles. A pretty good game, in all, and I can't think of many recent open-worlds as good as Pandora. Not a bad way to spend a few hours, in truth!
