In the expansive world of Ghost of Tsushima, the Iki Island DLC presents players with a vibrant new map brimming with fresh challenges and collectibles. Among these are a series of archery challenges that offer more than just a test of skill; completing them rewards players with charms that enhance Jin’s abilities, significantly improving his effectiveness against the Mongol forces.

The Charm of Concentration is particularly sought after, and securing it requires players to successfully complete a set of new archery challenges. This not only contributes to Jin’s arsenal but also unlocks the trophy «Pride of Ishikawa.» However, embarking on this quest isn’t without its challenges. Players may find themselves needing a bit of guidance to navigate the series of tests scattered across the island.

On Iki Island, there are a total of eight distinct Archery Challenges. Each poses a unique location where players can put their skills to the test. Successfully completing these challenges within the allocated time will not only enhance Jin’s competencies but also deepen the gaming experience.

To accomplish these trials, players must be prepared for a quick-paced challenge, as each archery task is timed, with a maximum duration of 22 seconds. The challenges are graded in three tiers: Bronze for completion between 15 to 22 seconds, Silver for 7 to 15 seconds, and Gold for finishing in under 7 seconds. Players are advised to aim for the furthest target first, as it requires more precision, and then keep hitting each subsequent target to achieve the best possible time.

Equipping the Tadayori armor set can significantly aid players during these trials, especially when used in conjunction with the concentration ability that allows for time manipulation. With each challenge completed, players will further enhance their Charm of Concentration, encouraging them to return and refine their skills.

As they set off to locate and conquer the challenges, players will come across various breathtaking locations on Iki Island, each offering its own unique backdrop for the trials. From the serene landscapes near Lone Spirit Falls to the rugged terrains at Raider’s Promontory, players will have the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of this expansive new area while also improving their archery prowess.

So, whether you are a seasoned warrior or a newcomer looking to sharpen your skills, Iki Island’s archery challenges offer an exciting blend of competition and exploration that will enrich your Ghost of Tsushima journey. Prepare your bow and steady your hand; the island awaits!
