Defacing Tyranny: Find All 12 ‘Paint The Town’ Statues in Far Cry 6

Far Cry 6 has several side quests called Yaran Stories to earn you gear, allies, and cash. One of these, based in the town of Esperanza, is called ‘Paint The Town.’ Given to you by Zenia, this mission will have you going up and down Esperanza searching and spray painting all over the various Gabriel Statues in the area.

The thing is, Esperanza is practically filled with soldiers, and searching for the statues in the middle of a firefight isn’t ideal. It gets harder considering there are no markers for the statues, those only pop up once you’re within 30 meters of one. It took me a while to finally get them all, and I figured a quick guide marking each location would be helpful to those who don’t want to spend too much ammo and time to finish this mission.

Exploring Esperanza for Statues

The statues for the ‘Paint The Town’ Yaran Story are littered in various locations around Esperanza. There are no useful markers for these statues, so you must explore the area to find them. Here is a list of all the locations.

Starting the ‘Paint The Town’ Yaran Story

To activate the ‘Paint The Town’ mission, you will have to have completed three others: ‘Paradise Lost’ (a main plot mission) and two side quests related to Zenia: ‘Stealing Thunder’ and ‘Heavy Metal’. ‘Paradise Lost’ will be completed just by following the main narrative, and the other two can be found at the Triada Mural.

Once these are completed, head to the West Lado district to find Zenia and start ‘Paint The Town’.
