Walkthrough
- 1Meet Naira in the Capra Pasture, southwest of Hernand Castle
- 2Travel with Duane to Lioncrest Manor archery contest
- 3Speak with the archery contest host to begin the mini-game
- 4Shoot 10 targets before your opponent to win the contest
- 5Keep your bow centered to quickly adjust aim when targets appear
- 6Use rapid shots on each target as they pop up across the field
- 7Speak with Duane after your victory to complete the quest
Tips
- Center your bow aim, then flick left or right when targets pop up — this is faster than repositioning
- You have unlimited arrows, so fire as quickly as possible at each target
- Keep track of both target locations — they alternate between left, right, and center
- The mini-game is a timed race, not a skill check — as long as you're fast, you'll win
- Duane will ask for credit even though you did the work — the archery minigame unlocks afterward
