To purchase upgraded blueprints from the Craftmaster in Dying Light 2 Stay Human, players will need to find and farm Uncommon Infected Trophies.
Upgrading Aiden’s tools and equipment is essential for survival in Dying Light 2‘s zombie-filled wasteland of Old Villedor, and Uncommon Infected Trophies are a vital resource for doing so. There are three kinds of Infected Trophies in Dying Light 2 Stay Human: Uncommon, Rare, and Unique. Along with the cost of Old World Money, these Trophies allow players to purchase the upgraded blueprints of Aiden’s gear from the Craftmaster within Safe Zones in Dying Light 2. Rare and Unique are evidently harder to find than Uncommon, yet some players may have trouble finding where to get Uncommon Infected Trophies in Dying Light 2 Stay Human.
According to the in-game description, Uncommon Infected Trophies primarily are drops obtained from Virals, Howlers, and Spitters. Understanding what kind of creatures these are is crucial to farming their Trophy drops. Virals are the initial state of the infected when they still show resemblance to being a human yet are very aggressive and dangerous. Recognizable by their distinct yellow glow, Howlers will alert other enemies within an area, mustering an attack on the player. Finally, Spitters, as their name implies, are ranged-type zombies that will harass players from afar with their repulsive projectiles.
A common way to get Uncommon Infected Trophies would be by farming Virals, Howlers, and Spitters during the day or nighttime in Dying Light 2 Stay Human. This activity can be carried out while fulfilling side quests or completing the main story. However, players who wish for a substantial amount of these Infected Trophies might want to try a few distinct farming methods.
Farming Uncommon Infected Trophies in Dying Light 2
One way to farm Uncommon Infected Trophies in Dying Light 2 is to trigger a Howler’s screech to draw Virals towards Aiden’s location. Once a group of zombies has assembled, players can sprint to any accessible UV lamp. Virals are weak to sun and UV light, and they will begin to decay and burn away after getting too close. A choice spot to use this method would be the entrance in front of the Bazaar. However, keep in mind that it takes some knowledge of the area and parkour skills in Dying Light 2 to successfully lead the zombies where the players want. Accidentally getting stuck or running into a dead-end would not be a desirable outcome.
Another way would be to use a location with a small choke-point opening, such as the Forsaken Store north of the Bazaar or near the Larch Windmill. The strategy is to attract a hoard within an indoor area to the small opening using sound-luring devices. Once they’ve gathered in one spot, use explosives or Molotovs to clear out the pack efficiently. Finally, loot the Uncommon Infected Trophies and sleep to refresh the spawn and repeat the process.
Dying Light 2 Stay Human is available for PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
