SHADOWS OVER PAILUNE

Ride with the Blue Fang leader to Pailune's safe house β€” it's been raided. After the cutscene, you receive the special equipment "Hyena Disguise Set." While wearing it, most enemies in this chapter won't attack you, though some can see through the disguise.

DRIVING OUT THE SHADOW

Head to the next marker and enter the house through the front door to rescue imprisoned companions. Move all the clutter next to the entrance door on the left, then open the floor hatch to obtain explosives. Plant the explosives on a cargo ship at the marked location β€” the Hyena Disguise makes infiltration easy.

LURKING WOLVES

Walk toward the marked house and enter through the front door to trigger a cutscene. At nightfall, Klev detonates the bomb and your allies begin the assault on Pailune City.

RECLAMATION

Watch the progress bar on the left side of the screen. Fight alongside your allies until the bar reaches zero. You'll then be teleported to the boss castle entrance.

LONELY JACKALS β€” BOSS FIGHT: LUDVIG

Ludvig is an agile, teleporting enemy with frustrating movement patterns.

Key Strategy:

  • - Activate "Wind Curtain" skill before the fight β€” it's extremely useful here
  • - When Ludvig summons a swarm of projectiles, Wind Curtain deflects them all automatically
  • - When he charges up and pulls you toward him, run away immediately β€” if too close, dodge behind him
  • - His other attacks are standard teleport-slash patterns β€” manageable once you handle the two main mechanics

Recommended Build: Shield of Betrayal + Gentleman's Oath Sword shield-bash combo, with plenty of food items.

Phase 2: Ludvig's attacks become slower. Use fallen pillars in the arena to deal massive damage (half a health bar per hit).

Rewards: Special Equipment "Hungry Fang Leather Cloak" and "Hungry Fang Leather Shoes"

RESOLUTION

After the battle, Ludvig is captured for interrogation. Your ally chops off his hand, but he still manages to escape. Before leaving Pailune, activate the fast travel point in the city β€” its location is shown below.
