In Ghost of Yotei, players encounter Eijiro the Ruthless Bounty during their journey through Ishikari Plain. This challenging adversary appears after progressing past the initial Yotei Grasslands zone. Overcoming this foe requires strategic combat skills to secure victory and claim unique prizes. Below, we outline methods to activate this quest and strategies for success.
Initiating the Eijiro Bounty Quest
Two approaches activate this mission. The first involves locating the bounty board at Ishikari Market, where posters detail Eijiro’s whereabouts at Higashi Lumberyard west of Urara Forest. The alternative method bypasses the board entirely – travel directly to the lumberyard and interrogate surviving enemies after combat, triggering quest dialogue automatically.
Combat Strategies for Eijiro’s Lair
The lumberyard demands careful infiltration. Prioritize stealth takedowns to manage enemy numbers efficiently. Strategic standoff initiations can reduce combat intensity. After neutralizing all guards, interrogation reveals Eijiro’s position behind a secured gate. Squeeze through the barrier to trigger the boss encounter.
Combat begins with Eijiro accompanied by archers – eliminate ranged attackers first to avoid fire arrows. Focus then shifts to the leader himself, whose flaming weapons require precise dodging. Mastery of evasion timing proves critical for surviving this fiery confrontation.
