Accept to help this old stranger

So, you Arthur agree to help the stranger and follow him closely. The road ahead is a long one, so be patient because the old stranger wants to show you several bodies and tell you some stories.

You can’t rush this part so walk with him all the way to his house. And make sure that your dead eye is always ready for use, it is an essential ability to have at all times to go through this quest as smoothly as possible.

When you get to the stranger’s house take cover behind the first tree and open fire on the Night Folk nearby. Why? because they will be ready, waiting for the stranger, at his cabin. A recommended weapon is  Manito’s rare shotgun you found at Manito Glade; if you followed our Unique Items Locations Guide.

The said weapon is powerful enough to take out a Night Folk with a machete with one shot. These are quite dangerous and can kill you instantly.

Once you clear the first wave, rush to the stranger’s house and get ready for more. The second wave might just prove to be a little more complicated than the first. 

The enemies could disappear from the said radar and may appear close to you at any given time, you must remain vigilant. Moreover, being armed with machetes makes them extra dangerous because you can die with no more than a few hits.

Take cover on the porch and take out all the Night Folks that appear. Prioritize those with machetes, followed by those with bows.
