Going out on foot is always an option, but it will take some time. Those without a vehicle can just walk up to the shrine and destroy it with any weapon they please. Explosives and rockets are the best weapons to use. Just one rocket will topple a shrine. Because of how straight the rockets fire inFC5, gamers can shoot down the shrines from several hundred meters away.

The preferred method is searching and destroying via the attack helicopter orthe attack plane. While the shrines can blend in, the helicopter provides a better field of view during the mission. Additionally, players will not even have to get out of the chopper to finish all of the objectives. It will take just a fraction of the time it would on foot if the helicopter method is used. Once all of the shrines have been taken down,players will receive the “Troublemaker” achievement.
