There are a number of tools such as fire arrows and incindinary bombs or bullets that can be used to complete Fary Cry 5's first live event. Ubisoft

Completing the personal event goal is actually pretty easy according to many players. Though you can't use Flamethrowers or Molotovs, there are still plenty of other weapons and tools that will work. Here are a few to check out:

  • Bow with Incendiary Arrows (usually only need one per bison or other animals),
  • Shotgun with Incendiary Shells - shoot one wait a second or two and fire the second one. Make sure the burn/fire damage kills and it should be successful if you loot burned meat (You can get both Incendiary Arrows and Shells in the shop under "items' if you have the Black Market perk unlocked)
  • Blowtorch
  • Cluster Incendiary Bombs via Airplane

How Do I Know When The Personal And Community Goals Have Been Met?

Far Cry 5 has a Live Events screen that shows your personal goal progress and the community's progress. In the future, Ubisoft plans to bring more Live Events to the game for players to participate in individually and as a community.
