Revision 4

Quest Details

Overview

The charges are set. All that remains is to give the signal. Kliff fires a flaming arrow into the sky above Pailune, and the explosives detonate, bringing the walls crashing down. This quest transitions directly into the Reclamation battle. It is brief, consisting primarily of a cutscene.

Walkthrough

Wait for the Right Moment

Navigate to a house in the center of Pailune. As with the previous quest, enemy detection does not matter. You can run past all guards without failing the mission. Enter the house to trigger a cutscene.

Send a Signal to the Comrades

This objective completes automatically during the cutscene. Kliff fires the signal arrow, the charges explode, and the walls of Pailune are breached. The next quest, Reclamation, begins immediately with no loading screen or transition.

Tips

• This quest is essentially a transition between the infiltration phase and the battle phase. It is very short.

• Have your healing items ready. The Reclamation quest that follows immediately is a sustained combat encounter.

• Make sure your best weapons and armor are equipped before triggering the cutscene, because the battle starts right after.

Tips and Strategies

• Save your progress before starting this quest, especially if you are playing on a higher difficulty setting.

• Late-game quests ramp up in difficulty significantly. Make sure your equipment is fully enhanced and your consumable stock is replenished before entering each new quest.
