How to use Orc

Orc is an orc-type creature worth 100 XP. Use this page as a route warning: check your armor, weapon, escape space, and quest reason before fighting or entering orc territory.

Best use

Safe move

Save before fighting Orc after checking HP 1 and XP 100 XP; confirm the drop or route payoff, escape space, and current gear.

Avoid this mistake

Do not fight Orc just because it is visible; compare gear, route payoff, drops, and escape space first.

Plan with it, confirm in your save Use this creature for planning, then check your current save before buying, training, fighting, selling, or turning in anything risky.
