Bowman of the Setting Sun Recommended Units

Recommended Unit Leaders
Alain	Hilda	Josef

Before doing this quest, make sure that you have expanded your slots from 3 to 4. Additionally, your Renown should be at rank B by now, and promoting your party members is a must since the enemies are much stronger and are at an advanced class as well. You can expand your units, hire Mercenaries, and promote your allies by spending Honor in Forts you own.

In Bowman of the Setting Sun, using 3 units will be enough to finish this as Galadimir will be offering both healing and Ranged Assists in this stage. We recommend the Unit Leaders listed above. Click on the leader's name to see our recommended Unit Formation for that leader in this stage.

Alain's Unit

Alain's Unit
Mandrin (Sniper)	Scarlett (Priestess)	Rolf (Hunter)
-	Alain (Lord)	-

Alain's Unit will deal with the Gryphon Masters and Elven Fencers.

Mandrin and Rolf both possess the ability to ensure truestrikes with their Eagle Eye passives making the Fencers' Sylphic Barrier nullified. Scarlett excels in both magick and healing and will be very useful, along with Rolf and Mandrin, in dealing with Gryphon Masters. Alain will hold down this fort as he has the highest DEF among them and can shield allies with his Noble Guard

Promoting Alain

It is recommended that you promote Alain from Lord to High Lord before starting this quest, as he will gain access to a mount and will have faster mobility. Allowing him to keep up with Josef's movement speed so they will stand closely together.

Alternatively, if you haven't promoted Alain yet, you can use a Light Feather for faster mobility.

How to Promote to Advanced Classes

Hilda's Unit

Hilda's Unit
Fran (Gryphon Knight)	Hilda (Wyvern Knight)	Chloe (Soldier)
-	Ochlys (Feathersword)	-

Hilda's unit will be responsible for treasure collecting and taking down Cavalry or Gryphon Master units.

Having all the flying allies in this group will lead them to victory when fighting Cavalry units. Chloe elevates this team by having attacks suited for both Flying and Cavalry units, making this team able to battle Gryphon Masters as well.

Recruiting Hilda

Hilda is a recruitable character and will join the Liberation after having Primm talk to her and finishing the battle in The Champion of Order side quest.

Having Hilda in this unit will make traversing easier, especially in terrains where normal Cavalry units will have low mobility.

The Champion of Order Walkthrough

Josef's Unit

Josef's Unit
Magellan (Sellsword)	Berenice (Sellsword)	Jeremy (Sellsword)
-	Josef (Paladin)	-

Having composed of all the best damagers in the team, Josef's team can take on almost all units in this stage, except Hoplites, which may take another round of battle to finish due to their shields, and Elven Fencers, due to their extremely high Evasion.

Josef's team is best suited to battle the Infantries in this stage.

Promoting Sellswords

Before starting this quest, you can promote at least one of your Sellswords to Landsknechts so you will gain access to their anti Hoplite skill, the Bastard's Cross.

Once the ability is learned, this unit will also be able to defeat any shielded enemy that comes its way.

#	Step by Step Guide
1	Deploy and Disperse Deploy Alain, Hilda, and Josef's units and make your way towards the bridge. Alain will target the Gryphon Masters while Josef deals with the Infantry units. Hilda on the other hand, will be in charge of getting treasure on the edge of the woods near the bridge, you will collect a Defensive Draught once picking it up, take note that you can use a Light Feather to increase Hilda's mobility so she can keep up with Josef and Alain. Once garrisoned at the bridge, two additional enemy units will approach you, Josef and Alain will have no problem defeating these enemies. Also, Galadimir will be stationed at the Watchtowers all throughout and aid you in your battles.
2	Go to Jokisvun Ruins After clearing out the path, your next destination will be at Jokisvun Ruins. Defeat enemies on the way and use the same strategy as before, Josef on Infantries and Alain on Gryphon Masters and Fencers. Hilda will still be on the path to collecting a treasure on the way to the ruins, but first have her deal with the Dark Knight unit that leads the charge on the way to you. After this, Galadimir will have been spotted by the enemy units. you can have Hilda use her Dragoon Dive Valor Skill to the enemies approaching Galadimir and then let Josef and Alain finish the fight as you collect the treasure up north near the shore to get a Hallowed Corne Ash. Once garrisoned in Jokisvun Ruins, you will receive a Dew of Acuity.
3	Defeat Ipolito Now that the path is clear, the final goal is to head to the enemy command post and defeat Ipolito. Before this, garrison in Merietra Town to collect a Magick Bomb from an NPC. Then, have Hilda collect the treasure just below the town and get a Mantlet Kit. Finally, head on to Ipolito's post, defeating enemy units on the way. You can use either Josef or Alain to defeat Ipolito, whoever has more damage and stamina to battle. After defeating Ipolito, you will receive a Giant's Greataxe.
