Overview
In Ashes is the Chapter 6 version of the quest (not to be confused with the Prologue quest of the same name). After the Black Bears fire on their own base to cover a retreat, Kliff escapes through the smoke and chaos while escorting soldiers to safety. The quest involves infiltrating a Black Bears camp and rescuing a captive.
Walkthrough
Speak with the Soldiers at the Base Outskirts
Head north down the hill to reach a friendly camp. Speak with the soldiers stationed there to receive an update on the situation and learn about the captive being held at the enemy base.
Infiltrate the Black Bears' Base
Navigate to the central camp surrounded by palisade walls. Enter through the open front entrance. The camp is packed with enemies and includes a miniboss. You have two approaches:
Bombardment approach: Use Whistling Arrows to call in artillery strikes on enemy clusters. This clears groups quickly and is the safer option.
Direct combat: Fight through the enemies conventionally. The miniboss hits hard but follows predictable patterns.
Rescue the Captive
After clearing all enemies in the camp, a cutscene automatically triggers showing the rescue. The quest completes when the cutscene ends.
Tips
Whistling Arrows are the easy button for this quest. If you received 10 from Fire Support, use them here to clear the camp quickly.
If you run low on Whistling Arrows, there are friendly camps nearby where you can resupply.
The miniboss inside the camp does not need any special strategy. Dodge and counter like any other tough enemy.
