If you have Kelda's Wolves, you can sweep them into the legion formation to hopefully create a gap, and then sweep those Wolves over to the archers to tear them up before they can cause more damage.

You can disrupt the legion formation by sweeping your Browns in, but keep your mounted Reds on the sidelines to spit fire at the soldiers. If you chose Fay's Salamanders, use the Right Stick to roll them below the archers on the hill and with any luck, they'll soon be taken care. Throughout this quest, try to avoid having your Minions stand in tall grass, as archers can set fire to the grass and roast them. There are some archers on the hill equipped with fire arrows, so be especially careful. The first hill is just beyond the slave dig site. There are some archers positioned along the side of the pit, so take them out as well. When you reach the pit with the working slave, kill the Legionnaires there, and then sweep your Browns into the tent at the top of the slope at the other end.

Summon some mounts, have your Minions of the corresponding colour hop on, and continue down the path. You'll find a Minion mount gate along the path east of the Netherworld Gate. The Minion mounts available during this quest depend on who you have set as your First Mistress back in the Netherworld. If you chose Juno as your First Mistress, you may want to consider returning to the Netherworld for a swap, because the Spiders she provides don't seem to be the least bit useful. If you chose Fay as your First Mistress and thus have access to Salamanders, call forth more Reds than you normally would (at least 15). If you chose Kelda as your First Mistress and thus have access to Wolves, most of your Horde should consist of Browns. Use the Minion Gates at the starting point to create a horde consisting of Browns, Reds, and Blues.

For the sake of following this walkthrough, consider choosing Fay's Salamanders to start with.Īlso, if you have any free Spell Catalysts kicking around in the Magic Room of the Private Quarters, upgrade the Target spell as much as possible, as doing so will make the final battle much less tedious. You can find your Mistresses in the tower at the northeast end of the Private Quarters. Wolves are needed to reach the Dark Crystal in the Empire Hills area, but even if you don't choose Kelda to start with, you can always return to the Netherworld and change your First Mistress mid-quest. Your choice won't have too much of an impact on the quest, but Kelda's Wolves or Fay's Salamanders are the better of the choices due to their utility in battle. With Kelda set as your First Mistress, she will provide Wolves for your Brown Minions, while Juno provides Spiders for your Green Minions, and Fay provides Salamanders for your Red Minions. Overlord 2 Guide - Walkthrough Tactical PlanĮach Mistress offers a different Minion mount, which become available at various points during this quest.
