The Barracks — Peekaboo Walkthrough: Conquering the Iron Citadel's Training Grounds

The Barracks, a key area within the formidable Iron Citadel, serves as the training grounds and living quarters for its formidable soldiers. This section of the Citadel is a gauntlet of disciplined enemies, tactical challenges, and the potential for acquiring valuable military-grade equipment.

Abilities that can stun, slow, or knock back enemies are invaluable for managing groups. Look for environmental advantages, such as elevated positions in the training yard or destructible elements that can be used to your benefit.

Upon clearing The Barracks, players often gain access to the next section of the Iron Citadel, such as 'The Armory Vault' or 'The Citadel Walls.'
