- 9Use Nature's Grasp ability to lift banner from ground
- 10Place banner into its holder stand to complete setup
- 11Camp construction is now complete
Tips
- All four tasks can be completed in any order — do them at your own pace
- Sacks must be carried one at a time using the grab button
- For mallet strikes, press L1+R1 together to create the impact — each stake needs 3 hits
- Pickaxe rocks block the wagon path — destroy all three before attempting to push
- Nature's Grasp might need to be aimed carefully — the banner is at ground level
- Once all tasks finish, you can stay at camp to explore or move to next quest
