Act 3:3 - At the Doorstep | Walkthrough Gears of War 4 Guide
Last update: 21 December 2016
Number of collectibles: 4
After you leave the carriage take the stairs and cut through the tissue, that blocks access to the first room. You will find the first collectible there. The statuette will be located on the left side of the doorway that leads outside of the building. When you pick it up and leave the structure, a nest will appear. If you do not have any grenades at your disposal, wait for one of your companions to blow up the nest.
At the next stage, you will be standing in front of the entrance to a barracks, where another nest will appear. After you eliminate all of the enemies, turn to the house on the left, where on a wall you will find another collectible.
While you are in the barracks you will find the mess, with several enemies inside. Be careful, as when you head downstairs, two pouncers will enter the room. Upon killing the first one, the other will emerge. After both of them are defeated, more enemies will enter from the kitchen area. Those will be the last waves of enemies in this area.
You will now head to a small courtyard, and at some point the monster that you are hunting will appear. It will quickly run away, and new enemies will emerge in front of you. The stationary turret located at the top of the hill will be causing you a lot of pain here, but you can find a sniper rifle to your left. You will also discover another collectible here. When looking from the side that you came from, follow the wall to the left and you will find a staircase. At the top of said staircase on its right side you can find another item for your collection.
After you enter the building and reach the floor, the swarm will attack from outside. It is best to let one of your companions man the turret, while you yourself pick up the grenade launcher, which is lying nearby. After you defeat the first wave, a swarm of juvies will appear, so if you are equipped with the Lancer it is worth it to use its chainsaw bayonet.
At the end there will be a mixed wave, but the number of enemies will not be as great as before. At that moment it is worth it reload the weapon and go through the door on the left side.
After going through the next house, you will be able to acquire a weapon called Buzzkill. It is a very effective piece of weaponry, which fires disks that bounce off of walls and it can be extremely useful in a short moment, when two new nests will stand in your way. When you neutralize them, keep moving towards the drawbridge. Before the bridge itself you will encounter another nest.
In order to lower the bridge you have to destroy two pieces of counterweigh, which are located on both sides of the bridge. Inside you will have a chance to find a dog tag. It is lying on the floor above, practically next to the doorway leading outside. As per usual, it is right next to a skeleton.
At the end you will end up in a large courtyard, where a horde of the swarm's minions will appear. You must simply cut your way through the enemy and then into the catacombs, while destroying consecutive hosts of enemies. Then, you must cut through the tissue and you will watch a cutscene, which signals the end of the episode.
