The descriptions are the game’s own text. Only the two “You’re Hired” achievements state their condition exactly; the last column is our reading of the hint, so treat it as a pointer, not a guarantee.
Tips for the rare ones
- You’re Hired: New Laurentia: work through Angel, Mikael, Juniper, Regina and Patrick. Regina’s chain needs Patrick’s progress. Full list: missions.
- Top Condition: fix pollution, invasive plants and feeders for a population; see herd management.
- Scent Betrayal: the New Laurentia campsite mission “Lure in” (a male grizzly with a luring scent) is good practice.
- Bolt Thrower and Straight Arrow: Patrick’s “Crystal clarity” mission asks for both a bow-sight and a crossbow-sight kill anyway.
- Over the Top and Blind Spot: placeable stands and blinds, plus the tripod stand for “Superhero of the wilderness”.
