Slaying the Hero Lyle - Part 1 Walkthrough
[1] Find the hero Lyle's cocoon.
Lyle's cocoon is already marked on the map. Once you arrive, a cutscene will start and you will travel back in Lyle's era.
[2] Speak with Lou.
Speak with Lou at the Confluence using the nearby mistle. You can ask her about this era. And she tells you that this is the time "Craig led the Dawn Chorus on an offensive to reclaim the Corroded Scar." Currently, you are on the timeline of a major battle. Lou tells you that your tasks are to find Lyle and the key to his cocoon.
[3] Follow the Chorus's trail.
Head north from the Chorus's Forward Base One through the fortress to reach Forward Base Two.
While you are on this objective, it's a good idea to destroy the nearest map jammer in your location. You can then head to the Supply Fort. There's a guard waiting for you there. Tell him you want to join the Chorus.
A cutscene will then start. Their motto is that if you want something, then you'll have to be willing to fight for it. And so, Lyle comes forward to fight you. After the fight, their leader, Craig, comes to meet you. He tells you their goal is to reclaim the Corroded Star. He asks you to help them, and Lyle will accompany you. Your task is to defeat two retainers: one in the limestone cave and the other at the abandoned land.
You can then activate the Forward Base Two mistle after the cutscene. You can choose which retainer you want to defeat first.
Defeat the retainer at the abandoned land.
Remember to activate the Abandoned Land
mistle first. The map jammer is actually out in the open so you can destroy it first. Here's your loot list:
| Loot | Image | Map |
|---|---|---|
| Bleeding Shield | ||
| Orbital Blade | ||
| Tender Crimson Stone 3 |
BERNARD THE DEAD-EYED RETAINER
Finally, you meet Bernard the Dead-Eyed Retainer.
Here are some of the moves you need to watch out for:
| Move | Showcase | Combat Tips |
|---|---|---|
| Electric AOE | Bernard will lift his glowing purple hand up and will unleash an electric AOE attack. The hand will serve as your warning. | |
| Projectiles | Bernard can also shoot projectiles. You can easily dodge at any direction. | |
| Sword Leap | Bernard will leap at you with his sword. He makes a stance before his leap so you can watch out for that. |
After defeating Bernard, you enter into a cutscene. Lyle admits that it's nice to have you fighting with him. And he also blames himself for Craig's injury. After an honest talk with Lyle, you step into his memory.
And this ends our part 1 walkthrough for Lyle.
