We Will Rise

Guide to completing the 'We Will Rise' quest in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Learn how to defeat Athenians, chase Kleon, and make a crucial decision.

Alright, let's tackle the 'We Will Rise' quest in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. First things first, you'll need to find Brasidas. He's hanging out overlooking the docks in Amphipolis, so head there and have a chat. Depending on how you handled the 'Monger Down' and 'Judge, Jury, Executioner' quests, he might be a little frosty, but don't worry, it won't change how this quest plays out. Once you're ready, it's time to follow him into a fight!

Your first objective is to take down a group of Athenians near the scaffolding. With Brasidas and the other Spartans by your side, this should be a breeze. Just try to prioritize the archers first to keep your allies safe, and be mindful of using too many area-of-effect attacks, as you don't want to accidentally hit your own guys.

Once those Athenians are dealt with, make your way east towards the beach. This is where the main battle is kicking off. It'll feel like a regular conquest battle at first, so focus on taking down as many captains as you can before the usual mercenary shows up. But here's where things get dramatic: your sibling will arrive, and a cutscene will play out where Brasidas tragically falls. Right before you can face your sibling, Kleon shows up and shoots them, then makes a run for it.

Now, it's your turn to chase Kleon down. You'll confront him alone on the beach. Don't let his status fool you; he's not a super tough boss. He doesn't have any heavy defenses or special moves. You can take him out with a mix of your light and heavy attacks, or just unleash your special abilities to end it quickly. After you deplete his health bar, another cutscene will trigger.

This is your moment: you'll have to decide whether to kill Kleon quickly or slowly. Honestly, it doesn't really matter what you choose here, as there are no significant consequences either way. Once you've made your decision and dealt with Kleon, the quest will be complete!
