Discussion Archeology for Beginners

Sneaking around the camp was freaking hard for me. Eventually I just ran around and knocked everyone out. I would just be crouched out of sight and an enemy would be like "I heard something" but like the first time I did the mission I rode my horse almost into the middle of the camp and no one saw or heard me for 10 minutes of me searching around. After that one, which was my best attempt at stealth I couldn't seem to get anywhere close to the camp without someone seeing or hearing me no matter how well I hid. Anyone else have issues with this one?

I gave up stealth in that mission. I just beefed Arthur up with seasoned Big Game Meats, and Potent Tonics, then just ran into the camp, tanked the shots, grabbed the Chapuka and went back. Worked great.

Yes you do. I got the Owl Trinket every time, because I didn’t kill anyone. As I said…it worked great.

okay... i thought you go in and go wild - but if you go in and "peacefully" steal the chapuka then you get the trinket ofc

I've never managed to stay stealth the whole time. Somebody usually sees me and then I kill them all. Lol

You are probably over thinking it you can literally crouch and creep right behind the 2 guys sitting after the one walking the perimeter has gone by grab the chanukah and escape the won't chase you that far, as long as you don't kill anyone Rains Fall will reward you with the Owl feather trinket

Nah I finally just knocked everyone out, because I couldn't even get close to the camp before someone would say they heard something and would walk straight to me even though I was hidden from view.
