Finding Old Friends | Anthem story missions walkthrough Anthem Guide and Walkthrough
Last update: 25 February 2019
Finding Old Friend is one of the main missions in Anthem. Your objective is to visit smugglers' hideout and meet with their leader, Princess Zhim. As always, things will get complicated.
Meet with Owen and Tassyn in the bar in Fort Tarsis. Start an expedition.
Head towards the bandits' camp. There, you will face Scars. You have to eliminate, e.g. two Enforcers. Use your Ultimate skill to defeat them. Find a weapon stash in the camp (the radar will point you the direction) and examine it.
You can now move to another camp belonging to the Scars. Prepare yourself to face more enemies. Destroy turrets before you start eliminating the bandits.
Find relics. This can cause you a few problems - this hideout has a vertical structure. If you reached the place pointed by the radar and you found nothing, move up or down.
Move to another location - the respawns will be blocked there. Defeat Ursix.
If you haven't encountered them yet (these enemies can appear during, e.g. Freeplay) then try to attack these enemies from a distance. Avoid stones thrown by an Ursix. Upon hitting, these rocks will damage your shield and overheat your engines. Don't let an Ursix get closer to you when you are moving on the ground. This enemy can leap towards you and hit the ground with great strength. Your skills, including the Ultimate ability, are very helpful in defeating this creature. After defeating the Ursix, approach its corpse to collect meat (quest item).
Fly to Zhim's hideout. Find the small entrance (see the picture above) and speak with the bodyguard. This triggers a longer cut-scene from the meeting with Princess Zhim, Owen, Faye, and Haluk.
The meeting gets interrupted by the Dominion forces. Start fighting with them. Focus on Dominion Storm Brutes. First, you have to deplete their energy bar (shields). After that, you need to deplete the yellow bar depicting armor (this one has more points).
Fly to the Strider - time for another battle. Don't try to revive Owen right away. You can't do that during the battle. Watch out for elite Dominion units. Use the nearby poles and rocks to regenerate armor or wait for your skills to be usable again. Repair Owen's Javelin after the battle. This will end the expedition. Meet with Tassyn in Fort Tarsis - you learn about The Tomb of General Tarsis.
