Follow our comprehensive walkthrough for Assassin's Creed Origins' Curse of Wadjet quest, detailing every step, enemy, and reward, including the Bow of Wadjet.
Walkthrough
- 1Speak with Nanefer west-southwest of the Vault of Splendors to learn about the Curse of Wadjet.
- 2Head to the villa in the northeastern corner of the city.
- 3At the investigation area, use your Animus Pulse and examine the two corpses (man and reptile), an urn with a cobra, and an Egyptian man cleaning blood.
- 4Listen to the Egyptian man, who mentions a temple to Wadjet in a cave under an old temple being dismantled by Greeks.
- 5Use Senu to find the cave entrance west of the old temple. Drop down a ledge to enter.
- 6In the cave, you can optionally destroy two sets of three snake-bearing urns.
- 7Continue east into Wadjet's Burrow.
- 8In the chamber filled with snake-bearing urns, destroy nearby oil pots to set them aflame, eliminating the snake-breeding operation.
- 9Enter the room and loot the red chest to complete the location objective.
- 10Find a scroll near the shrine of Wadjet on the northwestern side of the chamber.
- 11Confront and kill the caretaker and his two guards who block your escape.
- 12Confirm the kill to complete this phase of the quest.
- 13Travel east to the Pannouki Hideout to find Nanefer.
- 14Use Senu to locate Nanefer within the enemy camp.
- 15Clear the Pannouki Hideout: kill the level 26 captain, loot the treasure (a white chest on the northeastern end of the shelter), and rescue Nanefer.
- 16Carry Nanefer far enough away from the hideout and set him down.
- 17Talk to Nanefer to finish the quest.
Tips
- Use Senu to locate objectives and enemies, especially in the Pannouki Hideout.
- For Pannouki Hideout, consider using the high ground initially.
- If sneaking into the hillside shelter is difficult, scale the cliffs to the east/northeast to find a pit leading inside.
- The Bow of Wadjet is awarded upon quest completion, but may be a few levels below your current level.
