GO TO the Fishing Dock
SECURE the Area
As you begin to sweep southward from Dutch’s bunker, he radios in to let you know of a prisoner being held on the west side’s fishing dock. Head there; it is just north of the Silver Lake Boathouse, in the U-shaped harbor. Tag the two foes near the dock hut with your binoculars. Then execute them.
You can melee-strike the foe on the shore, then headshot the enemy assaulting the civilian. Or shoot the foe on the dock first; just make sure the civilian isn’t harmed (area-of-effect weapons like explosive projectiles aren’t recommended).
LIBERATE the Hostage
HIRE the Resistance Member
Head to the dock, untie the hostage, and then hire them as a soldier. They are added to your Roster menu, so check it out. Consult the on-screen instructions and the Training chapter of this guide for more information on using them effectively.
For the moment, focus on Moving and Attacking commands. Start utilizing this soldier exclusively, should you want to use allies, as additional Soldier perks are unlocked once they reach a certain kill count.
REACH the Forest Research Station
SECURE the Area
Crouch down so your ally doesn’t bolt forward and cause a commotion (until you’re ready). Survey the Forest Research Station from the rock outcrop to the south. There are six foes to defeat here and a hostage inside the cabin, so use explosives only away from the building. You could:
- Send your soldier along the right perimeter (woods) while you zip-line to the left (dockside) and start mowing down the enemy, each taking three foes.
- Send your soldier down to cause a distraction while you back them up from the rocky outcrop.
- Send your soldier into cover while you storm the central crates area. Your ally provides backup. Or dismiss the soldier and stealthily take everyone down with a bow or melee attack, working counterclockwise around the cabin.
- You can dive into the cabin and use it as a defensive position. Better yet, scramble onto the roof, where you’re protected; however, you can be outflanked if a foe climbs up to intercept you.
Once you secure the area, the mission completes. Free the hostage inside the cabin. Talk to them to receive information on the Ranger Station Cult Outpost. Check the vicinity for a clue as to the location of the other cult shrine on this island.
Dismiss the soldier when you’re done with them; access their picture from the Roster menu to do this.
