Objectives

Speak to a Ramkahen Sergeant and succeed in the Defense of Nahom.

• The Defense of Nahom completed

Description

The enemy is coming... and in great numbers.

We will get no further reinforcements. Let us hope we can stop the Neferset advance.

If Nahom falls, Ramkahen will follow.

Go outside and speak to one of my sergeants when you're ready. I will help you command the forces we have to the best of my ability.

Completion

We did it, <name>! We held Nahom.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 18
• 69000 XP
• 350 reputation with Ramkahen

Notes

Head outside and speak to any of the sergeants. Players have access to three abilities:

•   [Move]^ω ϖ (1.5 sec cooldown) 100 yd range—Move the Ramkahen Infantry to the selected location.
•   [Flame Arrows]^ω ϖ (4 sec cooldown) 100 yd range—Command the Ramkahen Archers to unleash flame arrows at the targeted location.
•   [Sun's Radiance]^ω ϖ (20 sec cooldown) 100 yd range—Unleash the fury and radiance of the sun at the selected location, healing allies and dealing damage and knocking back enemies.

This fight works much like the fight in Salhet the Tactician did. Move the infantry about to protect the archers so they have can get their volleys off unimpeded. If the Neferset send in a large group, fall back and use the Sun's Radiance move to both heal friendly units and knock back enemies.

The first waves are Neferset Infantry, then a few Ensorcelled Colossi, then finally the Greater Colossus.

The enemy approaches. Use the Move ability to move the Ramkahen Champions to the southern ramp.

Use your archers to support your infantry. A few volleys of flaming arrows will take down most groups.

Use the Sun's Radiance ability if you get overwhelmed! It will heal your units and deal terrible damage to the opponent.

On complete, Salhet offers The Push Westward, which continues the chain. The Sun Priest, on the other hand, offers The Curse of the Tombs, which starts a short side chain.
