The Traitor is a contract that is extremely easy to complete if you don’t want access to the bonus rewards. If you do want those bonus tokens though, then you are in for a time, as this is a mission that will have you failing over and over again, due to the fact that it isn’t very well laid out. The guide below goes over how to complete The Traitor and the sub-task of dealing with environmental damage.
When Does The Traitor Contract Become Available?¶
The Traitor is part of a multi-part quest line within the contracts subcategory. To access this quest, you will first need to finish The Perfume Trader. After completing the prerequisite contract. The Traitor will automatically appear on the contract board. Once you’re ready, pick it up and use the contract section of your menu to track down the quest.
How to Kill The Traitor With Environmental Damage¶
The Traitor sends you to the Soap Boiler’s District to a restricted area. The extra task for this mission is to kill the traitor with environmental damage, a tall order for multiple reasons. If you are looking to keep this short and sweet without the bonus, then simply go to the building where the traitor is speaking with a guard and kill him. After this, leave the area, and the contract will be all wrapped up. Be aware that there is a marksman, so you won’t be able to use your falcon until he is dealt with.
If you want the bonus, though, then the course of this mission changes a lot. You will need to make your way into the restricted area and start picking off the guards. This can be hard to do without alerting the traitor depending on how close you are to his location. The guards up top are standard fare. The guards on the ground are a bit different, however, as there are two that patrol right behind each other. Luckily, there is a crane that you can snap that hovers right over their walking path to take care of things quickly.
Once this is done, get near the traitor and assassinate the guard next to him. You can do this by using the window to sneak into the building he’s hiding in and perform an air assassination. The traitor will aggro and begin to attack you. You will need to lead him away from the starting location to a dock on your left. Here, you will find several red jars lined up near a crane. As you may have guessed from the bright red coloring, these are explosives, and killing the traitor with them counts as environmental damage. The traitor is notorious for not following you well, so if he stops, run back toward him to regain his aggro and keep leading him forward. You will also want to be careful about hiding out of sight, as he will wander off looking for you. In one of our tests, he somehow ended up scouring for Basim on the other side of the river.
From here, you simply need to get him near the jars. One way you can do it is by climbing up on the crane and then hitting the jars with a throwing knife. Be careful, as while this method guarantees the kill, you will likely take some damage. Once you kill the traitor and leave the area, the quest will wrap up, giving you your rewards.
The Traitor Delegate Rewards¶
For completing The Traitor contract, you will receive 45 components, two Merchant Favor tokens, and the Rostam Outfit Schematic. If you kill the traitor with the red pots, you will gain 65 Dirhams and an additional two Merchant Favor tokens. In addition to this, The Trade Delegate contract will now appear on the contract board.
