Attack of the Udam

Attack of the Udam

Prerequisite: Build Sayla and Tensay’s huts and talk to Sayla

Main Objective: Defend the Village from Udam. Kill Enemies and Destroy three Bone Trees at Udam Camp.

Difficulty: Medium

Awards: 500 XP

Enemies: Udam Warriors, Udam Archers, Udam Scourges, Udam Slingers

Overview

As your clan begins to make a new home for themselves in Oros, the Udam tribe takes notice and organizes an attack to once again destroy the Wenja village. Join with your fellow tribespeople and defend against the onslaught. Takkar is introduced to their evil leader, Ull, but he exits the area before you can go after him.

Defend the Village Strategy

If it’s not already at your side, call your White Wolf to assist in the fight. You can soften the Udam with arrows from afar, but the new club from Sayla and thrown spears do more damage. Warnings appear on screen when certain locations are under attack. First they go after the front gate and then the cavern gate. Use your canine’s speed to your advantage and sic it on the distant Archers, while you go after the Warriors.

Watch out for Udam Scourges who toss poison bombs. These projectiles can eat away at your health, so make them a priority as you defend the village. Continue to watch the mini-map and go wherever help is needed. Eventually the attack is thwarted. Regroup with Sayla; it is time to take the fight to the Udam.

Effects of Poison

Bee stings, snake bites, rot fumes found later in the game, and poisonous bombs can all poison you. Once you are poisoned, your health slowly drains. At the moment you do not have an Antidote, so you must wait it out. Keep an eye on your health and be sure to heal when it gets low.

Eliminate Udam Camp Strategy

A small Udam camp, located nearby to the east, offers a chance to exact revenge on your enemy. Cautiously move up the hill toward the location and use your Owl to survey the area. Be careful if you have the Wolf companion as it may spoil a stealth attempt. Udam Archers and Udam Warriors occupy the retreat. They can be pulled outside the camp by tossing rocks, allowing you to perform takedowns on them without alerting the others. Or you can take the area over with brute force. Watch your back as reinforcements may have been called. Once the enemy has been eliminated, set the three bone trees, marked as objectives on your mini-map, on fire with burning arrows. Kill any remaining Udam Warriors to complete the mission.

Be Careful Around Fire

You always need to be cautious when setting targets on fire as it can easily spread through nearby brush, huts, and any other dry debris. Move clear of an area you wish to burn down to avoid taking damage from the flames. If you are set on fire, hold the Interact button to put it out or risk losing more health. It is even easier to set your companion ablaze, so be ready to heal it when playing with fire.

More Wenja for the Village

More lost Wenja appear on the map to the east. Bring them back to the village and build them huts to unlock even more abilities.
