Far Cry 4 crafting guide

Hello!
This is a mini-guide on Far Cry 4 crafting. I have an incomplete collection of screen-shots taken on PS3 of Far Cry 4 crafting screen. This guide will give a quick overview of what animal skins to stock up on to complete crafting of ammo pouch that allows to carry more munitions into battle etc.
Note: It's possible to craft level 3 of every bag right from the start of the game. It's best done after completing campaign mission that requires to re-take an outpost, since that quest opens the whole South region of the map to the player. I frankensteined together a map of the north.

First up is the holster. Upgrading this will allow the player to carry three "big" weapons. Still haven't tested the first holster, but upgrading once unlocks side-arm slot. Before that only one weapon can be carried, and second holster upgrade enables to carry two large weapons. I believe that carrying a side-arm doesn't require crafting a holster. I no longer have Far Cry 4, since I traded in my PS3 to get PS4 so no updates will be coming in the near future. Some outpost reinforcements include a helicopter. I tested on every difficulty and it's really easy to fail. I strongly recommend carrying some hind of anti-vehicle weapons, like handy side-arm grenade launcher or RPG, since the helicopter has a gun turret with insane accuracy, exceptional detection and heavy damage.

Next up is wallet. 1st upgrade requires x2 Bharal skin. Screen-shots have a preview of how the animal looks on the map.

2nd upgrade requires x3 Assam macaque (monkey) skin.

3rd upgrade requires x4 Asian Rhino. I've made a video showing a really fast Rhino kill with LMG. Link to Youtube video. When the skin is damaged, that is, when animal is killed with bullets or explosives, the yield is only x1 skin per animal. Needless to say, hunting Rhinos takes some time because of the spawn rate.

Final upgrade requires Mad Devil's (wolf) skin, hunt with arrows or bolts. I've put together a map of outposts where the quest is located to obtain final skin.

Final upgrade can only be done by completing specific Kyrat fashion week quest. Grenade launcher must be used to hunt Black Water Dragon, a kind of fish. On PS3 graphics underwater are rendered poorly when looking from above through the water surface. That made spotting otherwise an enormous fish quite a chore. No weapon can be used underwater, but the fish bite away health quite fast. Good luck.

Final upgrade requires hunting Thick Skin (an elephant) with a flame weapon. A flamethrower is given at gear-up point. I'll add a map at a later time. Pagan Min's fortress needs to be conquered. It's shown as purple P on the map.The elephant ... is fierce. Prepare some healing syringes, because flamethrower doesn't do much damage. I only tested on medium difficulty, on PS3. I've put together a map of outposts where the quest is located to obtain final skin.

Heavy ammo
(rockets) 1st upgrade requires x2 Bengal Tiger.

2nd upgrade requires x3 Bear skin

3rd upgrade requires x4 Snow Leopard skin. I found that it's possible to spawn snow leopard in the South. Find mountains covered with snow and use bait in that area. Keep trying and eventually some should appear. I made a video showing the hunt but due to ISP fault can't upload it lazy me hasn't uploaded yet. Hopefully coming soon.

Final upgrade requires Karkadann (rhino), hunt with shotgun. I recommend unlocking Bull signature shotgun. I've put together a map of outposts where the quest is located to obtain final skin.

Last on the list, but by far my favorite, it's the quiver to hold arrows. 1st upgrade requires x1 Pig skin

2nd upgrade requires x3 Clouded Leopard.

3rd upgrade requires x4 Honey Badger. Since these are rare on the map, I will slip in a small spoiler - Badger can be found to the north west, just beyond the mountain range separating starting area when looking at unexplored map. Update: nope, just use bait to summon predators. Try different areas for specific animal.

Final upgrade requires Tenzin (dhole) skin, hunt with arrows or bolts. I've put together a map of outposts where the quest is located to obtain final skin.
