Players willfind several interesting characters while exploringthe world ofAvowed. You’ll meet one of these NPCs named Private Nauki in the Deadfall Highlands who calls for Envoy’s help. He exclaims how his squad was resting in their camp when suddenly they were ambushed by a group of Xaurips. Although Private Nauki successfully escaped the attack, the whereabouts of his squad are unknown. Here’s what you’ll need to do in this quest.
How to Start the First Contact With The Enemy Quest in Avowed
Players can start the First Contact With The Enemy Quest by meeting Private Naukiinside Deadfall Highlandsin the Shatterscarp regionAvowed. He’s standing near a camp and will call for the Envoy’s help when they get close.
He’ll start explaining his dire situation and will ask players to find out the fate of his squad in the Xaurip camp. This will start the First Contact With The Enemy Quest, as players will head into the camp to investigate Private Nauki’s squad’s whereabouts.
You’ll need toretrieve four badges, each belonging to a member of Private Nauki’s squad. So, head towards the quest marker, and players will reach an area with a giant monster’s skull called the Leviathan’s Hollow. There are a bunch of Xaurips outside the area, so you can either deal with them or quickly jump into the pool under the skull and exit out the other side.
Should You Forgive or Attack Private Nauki?
Return to Private Nauki and confront him about the act of cowardice. After hearing his reasons, players will have a choice to eitherforgive Private Nauki’s actions or attack him.
Choosing the “I think you had a real reason to fear and did what you could do” dialog option will let players forgive Private Nauki’s actions. He’ll be happy to gain the Envoy’s forgiveness and reward them with 900 coins. This will mark the First Contact with the Enemy quest as completed inAvowed. This is a better choice considering the rewards.
If you choose the “I think you’re just a coward looking for an excuse” dialog option, Private Nauki will be enraged, leading to a boss fight with him. He’s easy to deal with, and players can make quick work of him. After dealing with Nauki,you’ll need to return to Thirdbornand share all the details with Temertri. This choice doesn’t involve receiving money as a reward. She will take the badges from players, and the quest will be marked as completed.
