How to start the "Matter of Honor" quest?

[克莱恩·莫雷蒂]

The only thing I know is the name of the quest.

[LHookins]

Someone will approach you on the street. He wants you to fight a duel in place of his son. Your opponent in this duel will be very powerful. There are a few variations of the quest.

You might get the quest by just talking to people on the street.

In which city?

[spbg81]

I played 2 versions of this quest. Once I was approached by a girl on the street and asked to get an officer off her back, who is constantly bothering her.
In the same game I also found a soldier in the tavern crying how he has to go to the duel and doesn't want to.
LHookins is right. Your oponenents are very strong. I had rapier and the enemy officer would kill me with on strike. He would strike through the block and take away all my health with one strike. I wouldn't even attemp this without a gun, lots of ammunition and lots of potions for health.
The opponent officer comes to the duel with 2 friends who are not as strong but will also chace and attack you and give you very hard time.

I can't remember which city it was. I think it was Guadaloupe. The quests come very early in the game.

Matter of honor quest may only be taken in towns that has lighthouse near (except Port-Royal).

This quest can be taken: in the officer drinking in a tavern (approach to); a nobleman in the street (most suitable); you run up a woman (very rarely). Actually, it is generating a quest, and you can take it in all the cities (except piracy).

Thanks spbg81.

I had two variations. The officer in the tavern, and the man approaching me on the street, and I had that one twice.

The duels have always been fought at a lighthouse, and the bad guy's two companions sometimes attacked, sometimes didn't, probably always the same in any given quest.

Until I learned to use a gun in the fight (how unsporting for a duel!) he was killing me about 10 times for each time I killed him. You will learn to dodge, and to recognize when a heavy attack is coming. He can kill you in one hit, even if you've spammed health potions. He has his own health potions as well.

Unfortunately, unlike some *other* games in the series <cough cough> your opponent does not drop whatever excellent weapon he's using. Once I got a flintstone, probably worth the least of anything in the game. I think they were mocking me.

This is actually a worthwhile quest, just for the fencing practice against a very powerful opponent.

If you have to fight the two companions, it's useful to go behind the rocks on the edge of the cliff so that only one can attack you at a time.

Hey people from the past! I have a problem with this task because it says to find an adress of a mistress of some kind, and I don't know why. Any help please?

You can ignore this quest. In the future, try to read the dialogues carefully, because the magazine is a bad help in this game.

I noticed that when fighting at a lighthouse with such opponents, you should not search the corpses of killed enemies during and after the battle! Perhaps your cut-scene (scripted scene) will fail and lead to a dead end in the plot script.
It’s better not to search the corpses in the battle at the lighthouse if you expect the plot to continue, especially since they usually have nothing valuable!

You need to go around all the houses in the city. In one of the rooms you will find the desired character. He will be in military uniform.

[Turbolovers]

I just completed this task. In my case, the character I was looking for was in a tavern. Appearance - pirate appearance, not necessarily military. Here it is more important to remember the appearance of the quest giver, otherwise you will then have to interview the entire city.
