Artillery Gunsite, Northern Calphade Territory
Walkthrough
- 1Travel to the artillery gunsite in Northern Calphade Territory
- 2Speak with the soldier at the gunsite — he will ask you to repair the cannon
- 3Repair the broken cannon wheel when prompted
- 4Enter the cannon interface and identify the 4 watchtowers with black smoke
- 5Target each watchtower individually and fire — typically 1 hit destroys each
- 6If a tower doesn't fall on first hit, adjust aim and fire again
- 7Return to the soldier after all watchtowers are destroyed to complete
Tips
- The smoke appears to rise from distant towers — the actual targets are in the foreground
- All 4 watchtowers are within cannon range from your position
- Repair is mandatory — you cannot proceed without fixing the wheel first
- Most watchtowers fall in 1 hit if aimed at the base or support structure
- Take time aiming — wasted shots just mean more repair waiting
- After quest completion, you receive 10 Whistling Arrows as reward
