What's the deal with the "Drunken Orlan"? <SPOILER>

[AnjyBelle]

So, there is this "Drunken Orlan" sleeping.

 

I can sneak up to him, take "his key", go away or kill him.

 

When I try the latter, he wakes up and - although weakened - is still hard to defeat with my current level 9 party.

I finally won, but what now?

 

If I "go away" and attack someone else in the camp, who is in a radius of 100 m around the drunk, he wakes up

and wastes my party almost solo.

 

I realize, that this camp is not meant for levels below - let's say - 12. Nevertheless, I could win against some of the packs there

when I pulled them carefully. But it was tedious with most of my partymembers down.

 

My question:

 

Where is my advantage, when I take "his key"? I scouted the camp with my rogue and found a chest, which requires 15 mechanical (!)

but was obviously something else and not for the key.

 

Should I just ignore the drunk, walk away and try to avoid a fight with him?

 

Any other insights?

The chest is right besides him.

Sadly I had to fight him along with others. Overall there are some really really strong opponents in the camp.

That camp is populated by level 14 enemies, the fact you managed to beat him 4 levels belong while you're probably only sporting mostly Fine/Exceptional gear is pretty impressive actually. You might as well leave the area for later.

As I wrote: It was VERY tedious and I could only win because of the three figurines I found in Defiance Bay.

 

And the chest is right beside him? OMG....
