Tips
  • The Neorion Naval Arsenal is a restricted zone guarded by soldiers (levels 28-29), a captain (level 30), and a commander (level 31).
  • You can clear the fort by picking off guards near the gates, scaling the northeastern wall, and using Senu to locate the alarm brazier and enemies.
  • Loot the two treasures within the fort: a small white chest on the second floor of an interior building by the shipyard, and a large red chest in a guardhouse along the eastern wall.
  • The South Moeris Trireme may dock along the southeastern docks. You can complete this point of interest by sneaking aboard and killing the captain (level 28).
