Complete walkthrough for the Assassin's Creed Origins main quest 'The False Oracle'. Includes steps for Plucking the Ibis and Hunting with Papo, rewards, and tips.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Plucking the Ibis: Track the quest and head towards the Temple of Amun. Use Senu to locate Medunamun and scout the temple layout, marking guards and the alarm beacon (south of the large white temple building on the northeastern end).
  2. 2
    Infiltration: Climb a wall to enter the temple grounds. Be cautious of numerous guards (levels 1-5). You can either:
    • Conventional: Pick off isolated guards, disable the alarm beacon, and find a way to Medunamun, possibly by reaching the roof of the white temple building.
  3. 3
    Stealthy: Wait for Medunamun to enter the temple. From Hepzefa's house, head east-southeast to find a cave entrance guarded by one person. Perform a takedown and proceed into the cave.
  4. 4
    Reaching Medunamun: Inside the cave, head southeast down stairs, then northeast up another set of stairs to enter the temple interior. Turn southeast to find Medunamun's room. If he's not there, enter, climb a pillar to the roof, and wait for him. If he is present, a headshot with a Predator Bow is effective, but be aware of his guards.
  5. 5
    Dispatching Medunamun: Once Medunamun is killed (either by takedown or bow), cutscenes will play.
  6. 6
    Hunting with Papo: After regaining control, follow Chenzira and Khemu into the desert to a pond. Use Senu to locate the Ibex pack leader and hunt it with the Hunter Bow when it's distracted. Loot the Ibex.
  7. 7
    Following Objectives: Proceed to the new objective marker at Halma point.
  8. 8
    Temple of Amun Revisited: After an encounter, walk through the Temple of Amun with Medunamun, descending into the caves until you reach a sealed door. Cutscenes will play, revealing Bayek's motivation.
  9. 9
    Quest End: Bayek returns to Hepzefa's and decides to travel to Alexandria to find Aya. This concludes "The False Oracle" and begins "May Amun Walk Beside You".
Tips
  • Use Senu to mark guards and the alarm beacon before infiltrating the Temple of Amun.
  • The cave entrance offers a significantly easier and stealthier approach to Medunamun.
  • If Medunamun is not in his room, wait on the roof of the white temple building.
  • Be prepared for guards accompanying Medunamun.
  • The Ibex hunt requires patience; wait for the animal to be distracted before taking your shot.
