The Lost City - Ambush at the Inner Gate (Part 2)

When you've taken care of the first group, circle around to the north as 2 more archers appear on the south wall. The low wall in the middle of the room will partially shield you from their Greek fire arrows.

If a fire arrow lands near you, quickly move out of the way to avoid being burned by the pool of fire left behind. Take them out quickly with poison/fire arrows or rifle.

As you fight the archers, 2 more soldiers—a faster one with swords, a slower one with a polearm—enter through the gate to the south. Use the same tactics you did with the others.
