Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain - Elite & Legendary Staff Farming (A++/S) Level Up Mother Base

. Guide to gain finding high quality elite or legendary soldiers for staff at mother base in Metal Gear Solid 5 The Phantom Pain. Play mission 16 and kill the 4 Skulls before extracting the truck. After you destroy the 4 Skulls, you will have 5 minutes to extract every soldier in the hot zone as they will all be stunned from the Skull's parasites. Once you've extracted all that you wish, return and finish the mission. The rating of the soldiers you come across will increase as you level up Mother Base.

I use the Wormhole Fulton extract just in the event of bad weather or if a unit is under cover.

You know you're not going to have a fun time when at the beginning of a mission it says: "featuring skulls parasite unit"

[robertstorey]

Things you'll need:
1. Stun Weapon (preferably the UN-ARC-NL with stun grenade launcher attachment, you'll need the legendary gunsmith to do this)
2. Optional: Infinite Bandanna
3. Optional: D-Dog with Fulton extract kit, will make it super easy to spot all the zombified soldiers and free extraction, making sure you get the most out of the mission.

Do mission 28 with a stun weapon equipped, defeat all snipers but 1. Run to the back of the mansion, tranq the 3 soldiers but don't extract them. Run down to the basement to start the cutscene with Code Talker. Skip the cutscene and bring him to the top of the stairs and leave him there. Because you left one skull sniper alive, all the soldiers will be zombified. Shoot the soldiers in the head with the stun weapon and they will be incapacitated and you'll be able to extract them without having to kill the last skull sniper. There are about 60 soldiers you'll be able to extract. Rinse and repeat and you'll have a base full of S rank soldiers in no time. Thumbs up so people can see.

[kckff]

Found my first s++ dude.

Took the whole base out silently exept him.

Sneak on him, fail and go to reflex mode.

Quiet takes aim.

Remember Quiet has lethal weapon.

Cry.

[thrillhouse]

It's like every time I look up a tutorial for this game they always have an R ND team like 20 levels ahead of mine

[zackfelix]

Complete the mission called "The man Who Sold The World", and at the end you get S Rank soldiers from each category. For example, you will get consecutive S Rank soldiers from R&D, Med, Staff, Combat, etc. at the end of the mission as rewards. They're volunteer soldiers btw.

[ariqfauzan]

For any of you who wants to take the skulls quickly and safely, just hide and spam sleeping grenades at them. To be quicker, hide beside the door near the truck, wait for the skulls to group in front of the door, and spam the grenades at them. Takes probably 4-5 grenades.

[Juanita]

lol heard this quote somewhere on the internet..
"Metal Gear Solid V: The Fulton Pain"

I can't think of anything to comment so I'm just going to post an easy pancake recipe.

Step 1:
1 cup of milk
1 cup of plain flour
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Whisk milk, egg, flour and vanilla together in a jug. Whisk until just combined.

Step 2:
*Heat a small to medium non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Brush pan with butter.
*Using a ladle of mixture per pancake, cook the pancakes for 3 to 4 minutes or until bubbles appear on surface. Turn and cook for 3 minutes or until cooked through.
Transfer to a plate and enjoy!

[kingpinoy]

Your guides are amazing. Right up there with power pyxs. Helped me a tonne in unlocking my raiden outfit. Now the grind to 100% completion. Keep up the gallant effort.

[Tyrineal]

for S+ and S++ Soldiers you got to either play as them in place of Venom, doing missions as them will level them up and improve there skill. Either that or keep sending them on Combat Deploys and eventually they will get a medal and level up a random skill that way. You can't find them in the field you can only find S Soldiers and that happens after you get over 150K Heroism. The Higher your Heroism the better the Soldiers that will be in the field. At 500K it is quite rare to see a B level and lower Soldier.

[motocrossfang]

*PRO TIP* if you have all the gunsmith missions completed and unlocked weapon customization, you can develop the grade 5 o 6 rasp shotgun which looks like a double barrel sawed off shotgun, and customize it eliminating every attachments equipped, this so you can 2 shot neutralize the skulls and evade the risk of friendly fire to D-Dog and damage to yourself, I've done this hundreds of times and it works great and it's ridiculous how powerful this shotgun is

[Nightmare]

If you are doing Skull unit missons remember that those puppet soldiers can be also extracted once they get extracted they get a cross medal. This means if you find a really good puppet soldier with good stats he gets bonus stats upon extraction,

[Armaron]

The D-walker shreds those skulls in seconds. Though helps to upgrade it so it auto tags all surrounding enemies like D-Dog.

[DBZHGWgamer]

I just realized that this is secretly genius as all the staff will be S or S+ rank since they get a medal for being saved from skulls.

[VNMedia]

Am I the only one that shits myself when these skulls appear lol.
The first time I did this mission I just hid under the crawl pipes and just let Quiet kill them all! The skulls cannot touch you at all! not even with the spikes that come from the ground...

[phillyboy]

I just started finding a ton of S ranked guys yesterday. I'm only at mission 23 of the story but all my mother base teams are level 45-50. Level up your fob's to skyrocket your team levels

[cloak]

You can do this trick in the rescue Code Talker mission with the sniper. Simply leave one alive in the first fight and kill her after the mansion. There will be >100 soldiers to fulton.

[sewerreports]

I love this game. It has an <b>EXTREME<b/> replay value to its missions, but almost paradoxically, it's not about starting the game over. You can replay and remaster with your current skillset and weapons and progression, and the missions never grow old, being adaptive and increasingly difficult. (For the non-lethal player like me, better enemy soldiers means bigger challenge AND bigger reward.) There's also going in guns blazing (and amazingly going in guns blazing non-lethally), which was rarely an option in older MGS titles. 420/10.

[MasterMayhem]

It's very important that you can travel quickly. For those that don't have the Raiden suit, either bring a Dwalker with you to mow down the skulls and travel quickly, or don't Fulton the truck and instead use it to travel to each enemy checkpoint.

[spam]

Guess what? The amount of good soldiers is determined by your heroism. I'm at 970k and very commonly find S+ rank soldiers.
