Rifle Workbench

To reach the Rifle Workbench you have to go to the church which lies in the central section of the island. You will see some vines on the side of the church you can use them to climb up the church.

This Workbench is very important for stealth-loving players, as it unlocks better suppressor options for them. This is the first workbench that you will find with a British Flag hanging over it, rather than a German or  French flag.

SMG Workbench

The SMG workbench is near the Underground Hospital. This is also where you can eliminate the Kill List target, Lanzo Baumann. Go towards the house on the sloping ramp. Try to enter the house by picking the lock or using bolt cutters. Once you reach inside, go prone to go through the crawlspace. When you exit the crawlspace you will see a ladder. Go down the ladder to reach the SMG Workbench.

Pistol Workbench

After your complete Battery Mirus, you’ll learn about a base to the northwest. This base will have a tank and soldiers guarding a bunker’s entrance. To the side of the bunker, there will be some ditches. In one of the ditches lies the Pistol Workbench.
