The Far West map hides a small but rewarding secret that many players walk right past. Scattered across the region are three broken pieces of an old church bell, and restoring them leads to a special weapon tweak that grants free healing during combat. If you want the Healing Bell tweak, this Far Far West Playtest Bell Locations guide walks you through the entire process from start to finish.
Somewhere in Far West, you may spot the wandering ghost of a Bounty Hunter near the ruined church. He’ll mention a shattered bell and hint that its pieces are still lingering around the map. Speaking with him is optional, but his dialogue evolves as you collect the shards, which adds a bit of story flavor.
Your real task is to locate all three bell fragments, complete a short memory challenge for each one, and then return to the church to restore the bell.
How the Far Far West Playtest Puzzle Works
Each shard triggers the same ritual:
- Interact with the broken bell.
- Six small spirit bells appear in the sky and chime one after another.
- Memorize the order they ring in.
- Shoot them in that exact sequence.
If successful, the souls rejoin the shard, allowing you to pick it up.
You can collect the fragments in any order. Below is a clear route for convenience.
Bell Shard Location #1 – Stone Pillars by the Water
Move slightly east of the church across the water and look for a rocky platform marked by tall sandstone pillars poking out of the ground. These pillars make this the most noticeable shard in the region.
Interact with the bell, complete the sequence puzzle, and your first piece is secured.
Bell Shard Location #2 – Cliff Above the Rock Formation
The next shard sits north of the center of the map. Find the small circular cliff that has two ziplines attached. Stand on that cliff and take the zipline heading east. It drops you onto another elevated ledge where the second shard rests.
Trigger the bell, shoot the memory sequence correctly, and claim the spirit-infused shard.
Bell Shard Location #3 – Northern Coastline
The final fragment is located at the very top of the map along the northern shoreline. Check the beach area near some rocks and a loot chest. You can’t miss the bell fragment sitting on the sand.
Complete the sequence once more and you’ll have the last piece.
Restoring the Bell at the Church
With all three shards collected, make your way back to the ruined church.
You need to reach the roof of the building. If you have movement-based tweaks, a double jump can get you up quickly. Otherwise, use the wooden scaffolding along the northern side to climb your way to the top.
Interact with the church bell to restore it and free the trapped spirit.
Reward: Healing Bell Weapon Tweak
Completing the ritual grants you the Healing Bell tweak. When applied to a weapon, it offers a useful support perk:
- Around a 10% chance on headshot to spawn a Healing Bell on hit
- Shooting that Healing Bell restores 10 HP
You also keep this tweak for the rest of the current mission once unlocked, making it a great pickup for survival.
