I rode toward black smoke and found a tower occupied by enemies. My stealth worked at first, but soon I faced two formidable foes, one a giant. My attacks barely hurt him, and one kick nearly finished me. Low on health, I escaped, leaving the fight unfinished.
I was off to some side quests of the game, ignoring the main quests for the time being. After helping some peoples around, I noticed black smoke at a far location so I was riding towards that and the more I was getting close, the more I could see the tower visible which tells me its a region needed saving.
This was the entrance and I noticed someone guarding it so I stopped a far as I didn't know how many of they were there and I wished to start stealth.
I sneaked towards the guard quietly and when I reached close to him, I noticed two more of them ahead but there was no time to get back so I took the shot and I took down the guard.
The others didn't notice it.
As there were two of them together, I used this alt way to get up on the hill where I found a regular guard with a formidable foe who was a giant. I stealth killed the regular one quietly.
Then I started climbing up on the tower to understand what was happening around and there I had to first climb a ladder and then a rope.
After going up, I found a banner there but I couldn't torch there as the enemy was in control of the area and I had to take care of them first.
I jumped off the tall tower and started gliding. My plan was to jump on one of the two guards on the ground level and take him down but I couldn't land close to them so I landed a far and waited for the right moment.
When I understood there was no right moment for this, I ran to them and I stealth killed one of them when the other one fell down and then attacked me.
I tried to stealth kill the other one as well but I couldn't and then I noticed he was a lot stronger. I understood he was the second formidable foe of this area.
As I lost quite some health and didn't have any remedy ready, I escaped that foe and somehow saved my back using the grappling feature.
This time I decided to went for this giant formidable foe so I snaked behind him quietly and I tried a stealth attempt on him that drained some of his health.
But that attack didn't do enough to take him down as you can see. The giant was almost double the size of my character and I'm surprised my character didn't die after getting that kick. And yeah, I escaped his wrath as well.
We'll continue in another post with another game.
