Guide Overview
Poor Mosquito. Big Boss must really have it out for him to keep attacking his old FoB like this.

This guide is to provide a quick and simple way to get all mission tasks completed and the most event points possible for the Mosquito's Legacy FoB event.

It is a guide specific only to this event during the event period and not intended for general FoB infiltrations as those will vary greatly.

For the most part I will go step-by-step on what I did to get all tasks completed during the event. I will leave some basics out and some things in the guide can be done differently. That is up to you.

The Mission
You may remember Mosquito from the main mission. His FoB is still around causing trouble. Go in, and take them all out without being noticed. Easy enough right?

There are 7 missions tasks to complete.
  1. Neutralize a secutiry guard with a sniper rifle
  2. Headshot at a range of 60m or more
  3. Neutralize 3 security guards with handguns
  4. Neutralize 8 security guards
  5. Infiltration successful
  6. Infiltration successful in 300 seconds or less
  7. Infiltration successful with no kills or alerts

It seems like a lot to handle but when you get there it is pretty straightforward.
One thing you will notice in the FoB mission screen is that the platforms are actually at quite a low level.











No sensors, mines, drones, or cameras and the guards have on basic fatigues with SVGs and no night vision.

This make things much simpler already.


Platforms
For the purposes of this guide we will be focusing solely on the R&D platform. I have found that R&D is the best platform to get all the tasks on with the least amount of time and effort without alerts.

*I recommend completing all the other platforms before or after for the bonus staff. This guide is helpful for these other platforms as well.*

Place your wormhole here











Loadout
This is the loadout I prefer for this mission.
I go nonlethal in this case because you don't have to hide any bodies for faster completion. Guards will usually just wake up whomever they find asleep.

*The less GMP you use the better*











UN-ARC-NL: just in case you need a quick response to an alert
M2000-NL: for range
Burkov TB: quick firing rate
Bionic Arm: 0 GMP cost (No special arms needed)
Smoke Grenade: in case of alert, RUN AND HIDE
Noctocyanin: A MUST, no marking required
Sneaking Suit: because SNEAKINESS

Now you're ready to be awesome! *yay?*
Infiltration- The Second Platform
It Begins
If you chose the same wormhole as the one I suggested, you will start off at the scaffold surrounding the first platform.
Crouch and proceed down the staircase directly in front of you.











Follow the path down and around until you can see the pipe going up to the platform.
Stop before proceeding to the pipe. Look over to the opposite platform and equip your sniper rifle.
There will always be a guard proceeding up the left and uppermost scaffold staircase on the main platform.

Aim for the noggin and he's out like a light.





















1st, 2nd tasks complete!

Proceed to the pipe next to you. Pop a Noctocyanin pill to make sure no one is watching up top and shimmy yourself to the upper level.











Upper Level
After getting up top, immediately go prone and follow the structure to your left around to the bridge on the other side.































Stop at the bridge and make sure no one is behind you.
You are done with the second platform.




Infiltration- The First Platform
Entering the First Platform
Keep prone and head forward into the lane for a couple meters. Look up and there will be a guard on the right side of the R&D building on the scaffold looking out toward the second platform, tranq him in the face with your pistol from the bridge for your second handgun neutralization.











Some patrols vary but it will likely be open all the way to the R&D building. Move to the left side of the platform.
If there is another guard approaching the sleeping guy you tranq'd with the sniper rifle at the beginning just approach the staircase and get him with your pistol from below.

3rd task complete!











Moving through the platform
There are many ways to move up, choose any you see fit.
I found the quickest way is to simply take the staircase that brings you all the way up to the top level from the deck, just go around until you see an opening.

*It is a good idea to always keep your Noctocyanin up, you won't run out.*

A guard is standing there with some inflatible buddies, take him out and proceed up the stairs until you reach the top where it cuts off into a pipe.





















The Top
Two guards patrol the top and their positions vary. Shimmy the pipe and take both out when they face away from your area.

DO NOT ENTER THE CORE YET!

Go to the other side facing toward the first platform, you will snipe the remaning guards on the other platfrom from up here. Pop a Noctocyanin if it has run out so you can see where all the remaining guards are on the other platform.





















Take out as many as you need until you hear the *Bwmp!* confirming you have taken out 8 guards.

4th task complete!

Hoof it to the Core!

After your victory smile you should see tasks 5, 6, and 7 pop up.

All tasks complete!
The End
Congratulations!











You have earned all the event points from the mission tasks and then some!

You really are The Boss!

Now just rinse and repeat to recieve some snazzy goodies from the point exchange.

I hope this guide has been helpful. Rate or Hate!

Sum times I've done exactly that, got the event points normally but instead of earning money I've lost it with deployment..... Why it happens?

There was a Russian dude who posted a video for the last challenge, and it worked really well, hence my suggestion.

Thanks for the awesome feedback guys. I will look into doing a video promptly.

+1 asking for a video if possible, the guide itself was 10 outta 10.

Excellent! Thanks man!

(If you're able - a video would be supreme compared to words and pictures, but it was solid nonetheless!)
