Should You Attack Portier?

Do Not Attack Portier Initially

Choice Consequence
Leave Portier Alone ・Portier lives
・Gain the opportunity to obtain a special reward later on
Attack Portier ・Trigger a boss fight with Portier and gain Colours of Lumina x3 and Polished Chroma Catalyst x1 after winning
・Portier disappears

It is not recommended to attack Portier as players will lose the opportunity to gain a special reward later in the story. Another Nevron NPC can be spoken to later on that will award the players for keeping these special Nevrons alive.

Attacking Portier Will Lead to a Boss Fight

Choosing to attack Portier will lead to a boss fight. Restore your health and update your attributes and skills at the nearby rest point before choosing this option.

All Nevron Quests

Attack After Unlocking Aiding the Enemy

Trophy Requirement
Bronze Aiding the Enemy
G: 25
Finish all of the Nevron quests.

All Nevron Quests

It is recommended to unlock the Aiding the Enemy achievement first before attacking Portier. This requires completing all the Nevron Quests available in the game, which can only be attained during Act 3.

Doing so will allow players to maximize the rewards for the quest and battle loot without missing any items and experience.

Portier Side Quest Walkthrough
1
Speak to floating orb to trigger the quest. It will mention that "something is resonating with it beyond the cliff.". Near the flag, climb the wall and then head to the top of the cliff.
2
At the top of the cliff, you'll see more ruins below. Drop down and enter the ruins and you'll notice that it's a maze. You'll have to unlock pathways using the glowing orbs to get to the exit.
3
Enter the maze and you'll have to shoot the glowing orbs to open the pathways. Just follow the video and you'll get to the exit.
4
At the exit, move forward until you see a fallen roof. To the right of the fallen roof is some wood, where you'll see the Wood Boards item. Pick it up and use the grapple hooks to get back to the location of the floating orb at the start.
5
Give the floating orb the Wood Boards when prompted. Continue with the dialogue and the Portier will appear.
6
Finish the dialogue with the Portier to get the Protecting Heal Pictos as a reward.
7
Players can speak to Portier again and choose to either leave them alone or attack them, where the latter choice triggers a fight with Portier.
