Far Cry 5 Henbane River Walkthrough Guide

Henbane River is the second region of Hope County and is ruled by Faith Seed, who is also part of the cult run by Joseph and the rest of the Seed brothers. This region is mainly used for the production Bliss which is a drug used to keep the cultists in control of the family.

To get to Faith Seed you need to get 13000 resistance points. And to do this you need to complete main mission stories, liberate cult outposts, destroy cult properties and save hostages. Each one of these mission will add up your resistance point that you will need to reach Faith Seed.

When you reach the prison, you have to defend it from the attacking peggies. After killing the few enemies in the front, locate a way to get inside the prison. Go to the right side of the outer walls of the prison; jump on the car then onto to bus to climb over the wall. This will get you inside the County Jail.

Kill all the peggies you find inside the compound of the prison where a cut scene will begin with the sheriff warning about incoming peggies and to defend the gate to the prison. Climb up back on the wall, and shoot at any approaching peggies on the outside. Some peggies will make it up the wall so keep a check behind you at all times.

When you reach up there will be a peggie who can be easily taken down. Turn left and you will find two enemies with hostages. Kill the enemies, save the hostages and clear out the area.

When you finish, the final step will be to kill the priestess who will arrive from the river side of the area. Ambush the priestess and take the enemies out that accompany her. This will complete the mission.

Ignorance is Bliss

After getting enough Resistance points you will find yourself affected by the Bliss drug and pass out. After a cut scene, you will see a marshal sitting in a boat. When you get back the controls, chase the Marshal and kill him as you reach near. That will trigger another cut scene where you wake up back at Hope County Jail.

Doctor’s Orders

For this mission, reach Mastodon Geothermal Park which is north of Moonflower Trailer Park. Take out the enemies and save the doctor.

Talk to the doctor and he will ask you to retrieve his bag that is in the river nearby. Swim in the river and bring the bag back to the marked waypoint. When you resurface, there will be an enemy attack going on again. Clear out the location by killing all the enemies.

Talk to the doctor who will guide you to the next part of the mission. This time he will ask you to gather ingredients for a formula that can lure the angels. The ingredients are two Pronghorn and two Black Bear skins. These will all be marked as waypoints in the map. Gather all the items and head to Hope county Jail where the doctor will be found. Give the ingredients to the doctor which will complete the quest.

Clinical Study

This part can be accessed after completing the mission ‘Doctors Orders’. Talk to Doctor Charles Lindsay, who will give you the bait to test on the angels.

With the bait equipped head over to a farm that is west of Hope County Jail. Once you reach the area, you will see a lot of angels and cultists in the field. Firstly, kill the cultists without alerting any of the angels. Then sneak in to place the bait on the table, and climb on top of the house to see if the bait works. The doctor will then radio you and tell you that the bait has not worked on the angels. Kill the rest of the angels and collect more items for the doctors.

This time you need to collect two skunk skins. Once collected, return to the doctor with the ingredients to end the mission.

The Lesson

When you have added enough resistance points, you will again transport into a dream with Faith Seed in it. In the cut scene, you will get to see the Marshall that was captured earlier in the game.  After the cut scene, you will be back in front of the Hope County Jail with a lot of enemies infiltrating the area.

Run to left side of the prison towards its backside. You will find a grappling point that you can use to get on the roof. On the roof, there will be a few snipers attacking you. Find cover and follow the waypoint. To get to the inside of the prison, you will have to pass through a vent.

Once you go through the vent, you will spot an enemy straight ahead. Kill him and then take another one below. Right in the center of the prison you will see two hostages and a lot of cultist around. To save the hostages, approach the enemies with stealth.

Stay low and make your way towards Tracey’s prison where she will guide you to a key to release her. Get the key and free Tracey to complete this part of the mission.

Paradise Lost

This mission continues after you finish The Lesson.

Just as you leave the Jail, you will find yourself waking up up in a bliss infused world. Once ou have control, head towards the shining light in the middle of the open area. a cut scene will follow where you will see the Sheriff with Faith Seed.

When the cut scene ends your fight with Faith begins. She will send waves of angels to attack you while she will be floating mid air. Between each wave, she will throw 3 special attacks that you have to dodge. When you inflict enough damage to Faith, she will transport to a different position making it hard for you to trace her attacks.

Continue you attack. Eventually Faith’s health will decrease which will decrease her movement, thus making it easier to attack her more efficiently. Once Faith is defeated, another cut scene will follow before the next part of this mission.

Walk The Path

After defeating Faith Seed, you will still be continuing in the dream with a set path. At the end of the path, you will find Sheriff who will ask you to stop the production of bliss.

In this part of the mission, go to the 5 marked waypoints that lead you to cut off valves to stop the production of the Bliss. But there will be enemies before every valve. Take down the enemies and shut the valves one by one.

After you have defeated all the enemies and stopped the Bliss production, go outside of the bunker where a cut scene will mark the end of the mission.
