PS5
Avatar’s platinum hunt does not mean collecting every single object in Pandora. Its trophies ask for complete sets in some categories, specific thresholds in others and several clan activities. An orderly route opens the world through the story, uses the Hunter’s Guide while travelling and saves a focused circuit for remaining tasks. Expansions have additional trophy groups: this roadmap covers the base game rather than confusing the full expanded list with the platinum.
Base-game trophy roadmap. Expansions and additional trophy groups are separate from the platinum.
- Required difficulty: No difficulty requirement for the platinum.
- Missable trophies: Base-game trophies can be cleaned up; Resistance HQ changes during the story.
- Online: Co-op is optional for the base-game platinum.
Open regions and tools through the campaign
Complete main missions to access the areas and movement options you need. When an activity is far from your current route, note it and return once crossing Pandora is more convenient. Before an RDA assault, check weapons, ammunition and food. Arriving prepared prevents every installation from turning into an extended drain on materials.
- Progress the story and collect conveniently placed items along the initial route.
Scan before gathering
Wildlife Expert and Great Gatherer concern Hunter’s Guide entries: gathering many copies of one resource does not replace the required variety. In a new biome, use Na’vi senses to register wildlife and plants before consuming them or moving on. For clan requests, consult the guide for material locations and the quality actually requested.
- Register different species and use guide entries for clan deliveries.
Separate complete sets from thresholds
Tethered Kites and Doll Collector require their complete sets; A Good Listener and Story Guardian instead specify thresholds for audio logs and notes. Track these separately. Before opening an external map for a final item, check the category’s name: one more note does not compensate for a missing doll. Trophy counters help you choose the circuit you actually need.
- Check kites, dolls, notes and recordings as four different collections.
Organise RDA facility cleanup
Alternate smaller installations with outposts and watch the territory indicators change. Little by Little and Hit Them Where It Hurts describe different tasks: do not assume every RDA icon advances both. Before the final circuit, choose an area and finish targets matching the remaining counter. The same route can supply materials and equipment for tougher encounters.
- Check a facility’s type before counting it towards a particular RDA trophy.
Finish clans, crafting and recipes
Set aside a session for unfinished clan requests. Bring suitable materials, check the journal after each delivery and avoid filling your pack only with common resources you already own. Cooking Pot Pro needs different specialty recipes; cooking the same dish three times is not three recipes. For Apprentice Crafter, check the required rarity before spending a rare ingredient.
- Deliver the correct requests and check recipes and rarity in their menus.
Approach the thanator with a prepared character
No Easy Prey specifies a non-feral thanator: defeating a similar enemy of the wrong variant does not meet the condition. Before searching, check health, ammunition and a weapon suited to your fighting style. Meanwhile, finish the required ancestor skills and an Apex skill. Your final audit must confirm the correct encounter type, not simply a general victory over wildlife.
- Defeat a non-feral thanator and check the required skills separately.
Trophies to watch
No Easy Prey
Defeat a thanator (non-feral).
Confirm the enemy is non-feral before spending resources on the fight.
Doll Collector
Collect all windswept dolls.
Mark every doll in its own collection; notes and recordings are not part of that set.
Wildlife Expert
Unlock 20 Hunter's Guide entries for gatherable wildlife.
Find different gatherable species: rescanning one animal does not expand the catalogue.
Cooking Pot Pro
Unlock three recipes for specialty dishes.
Check the recipe book for three unlocked specialty recipes.
Frequently asked questions
Must I finish every map marker?
No. Follow each required category: some need complete sets, others a threshold. Do not automatically extend the platinum to every world activity.
Is co-op mandatory?
No. The base platinum roadmap can be completed solo. Co-op is a gameplay choice rather than an additional base-list objective.
Does losing access to the original HQ ruin the platinum?
The story change does not itself block the trophies. Continue the required collections and activities available in the world, checking the actual counters.
