How To Get The Mercy Trophy In A Plague Tale: Requiem
To get the Mercy Trophy in A Plague Tale: Requiem, players must save the soldier and keep him alive in chapter four. After getting introduced to Tar, Lucas guides Amicia on how to use it, so they can cross to the other side of the docks. A lone soldier calls for their attention and offers assistance to clear the path from rats. Afterward, the guard will insist on escorting Amicia and Lucas back to the village, which they obviously refuse, thus making the soldier hostile.
To keep him alive, use the sling to throw an Ignifer, setting him on fire then throw a rock coated with Tar to cause a small explosion, making the torch shine brighter. This will distract the guard and clear the path from the rats so that Lucas and Amicia can run to the door behind the soldier, saving him in A Plague Tale: Requiem. Do not use the Extinguisher, as it will kill the soldier and Amicia will be forced to use precious materials to clear the path.
How To Solve The Puzzle To Reach The Soldier In A Plague Tale: Requiem
To solve the chapter four puzzle in A Plague Tale: Requiem, complete the following steps:
First, use the sling to drop the bridge down on the opposite platform, catching the attention of the soldier.
Then, climb the footbridge brought by the guard and interact with it to pour some diluent into the resin below then set it on fire. Stay on the bridge and make Lucas use the other wheel.
Afterward, follow this instruction:
Once Amicia is on the other side, tell him to Stop. Pour the diluent into the second pond and light it up. Tell Lucas to move the bridge and interact with the wheel to lift the boat blocking the way. Light up the third pond after pouring some diluent. Use Tar on the first pond to boost the fire and lift the boat again, helping Lucas cross.
Finally, descend the stairs and drop the bridge down to make the soldier cross to the other side.
One of the best mechanics A Plague Tale: Requiem has is the possibility to order other characters to take care of a specific matter, like making Hugo go through a small opening to open a locked door. To solve the puzzle in chapter four, players need to take advantage of this mechanic by ordering Lucas to interact with objects.
A Plague Tale: Requiem is available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
