How to use Orc Weapons

Orc Weapons costs 0 LP and is taught by Chokta in Chapter 5 after you can enter the Orc Camp with the Ulu-Mulu route. Accept the challenge, fight a Biter and then a Fire Lizard without armor, listen to Chokta's lessons between fights, and confirm the final skill level before relying on heavy Orc weapons.

Best use

Accept the challenge only when you can fight without armor and keep the Krush Pach equipped.

Safe move

Save before accepting Chokta's challenge, bring healing, and make sure your Strength and level can handle the Fire Lizard while unarmored. Keep a separate save before the second fight.

Avoid this mistake

The challenge temporarily removes armor and restricts you to a Krush Pach. The Fire Lizard's breath is the real danger, so do not begin the test at low health or with no retreat space.

Use normally, still save-check big commitments Save before accepting Chokta's challenge, bring healing, and make sure your Strength and level can handle the Fire Lizard while unarmored. Keep a separate save before the second fight.

If you needSurvive the second test
Check

Around 50 Strength, a workable level, full health, and an escape line from the Fire Lizard's breath.

Do next

Save before the Fire Lizard and use the arena space instead of trading breath hits at close range.

Risk

The unarmored fight is much less forgiving than the Biter test.

If you needUse Orc weapons afterward
Check

Both lessons are complete and the skill level shows the final improvement in your save.

Do next

Confirm the skill, then compare the Orc weapon route with your current Strength and late-game build.

Chokta's Orc weapon challenge

Chapter 5 saves that want efficient Orc weapon handling before the late Enclave and temple routes.

  1. Reach the Orc Camp through the Ulu-Mulu route and find Chokta in the training arena.
  2. Save, accept the challenge, and confirm the Krush Pach is the only weapon you are expected to use.
  3. Defeat the Biter, then listen to Chokta's first lesson before leaving the arena.
  4. Prepare for the unarmored Fire Lizard, keep distance from its breath, and make a second save before the fight.
  5. After the second lesson, confirm Orc Weapons has reached its final level before equipping heavy Orc weapons in the Enclave.

Keep a pre-challenge save and a pre-Fire-Lizard save; the armor restriction makes a failed second fight expensive.

The Lesson Is Two Fights

Orc Weapons is free in LP, but it has a real entry test. Chokta uses the Biter to teach the first handling step and the Fire Lizard to teach the final step, so plan the whole challenge before starting it.

  • Trainer: Chokta in Chapter 5.
  • Weapon restriction: Krush Pach.
  • Armor restriction: none during the challenge.

Build For The Fire Lizard

The second fight is the decision point. Around 50 Strength and roughly level 25 gives the route a safer starting point, but your own health, healing, and arena space matter more than a single threshold. Save before accepting and again before the Fire Lizard.

  • Keep full health before each test.
  • Avoid the fire-breath line and do not wear armor during the challenge.
  • Confirm the final skill level before the next Orc weapon pickup.
