The Wilds Bonus Mission
Kaisersoze
Mila
I havn't done this quest yet, it's next on my list. But here's something about it from another site I visit.
"X. The Wilds
Objectives
Hunt down the Shining Blade kidnappers, and rescue the Chosen they have taken hostage.
• Chase the fleeing Shining Blade.
• Rescue the Chosen.
• Discover how the Shining Blade navigate the Jungle.
• *BONUS* Defeat the two centaur Chieftains.
Quest Items
Vine Seeds
Notes
Near the beginning you come to a fork in the road with three alternate routes and the path behind you. The path straight ahead continues with the mission and the left and right paths form a loop. To gain the bonus, take the path to the left and follow it around until you can see two centaurs ahead of you. Edge forwards carefully until they start to talk. Listen to the whole conversation to gain the bonus. Do not kill them until you have the bonus in your Log. After you kill them, pick up the Vine Seed they leave behind and head back (either way) to the fork and take the centre path to continue with the mission. After the cut scene when you learn how vine bridges work, a large number of centaurs will come at you. After dealing with them, go in the direction that they came from. Eventually you’ll come to a place with a glowing circle to plant the Vine seed. Dropping it here will create a bridge that you can take to the centaur stronghold. There are a very large number of centaurs here that can be hard to kill including at least 4 bosses. Killing them all completes the bonus."

Thanks for the post Mila. I just finished the Wilds primary mission and was looking for exactly the information you gave us to get the bonus quest done.

umm yeah this info is pretty limited, i have found 1, that's 1 chieftan and i have yet to find this "Centaur Stronghold" of which you speak. Furthermore, i have yet to find the point where you use the vine seed that you get from the centaur scouts at the onset of the bonus. If any specific information can be found on this bonus mission it would be much appreciated.

If you haven't used the vine seed, then you haven't found either chieftan, they're both together (as the scouts' dialog suggests) on the other side of the chasm you use the vine seed to cross.
When you're at the start of the Wilds, take a look at your map. See the large lake to the NE? The chieftans are having their little conference by the lake. After the cutscene and the first battle with the centaurs, you'll be SW of that lake. Depart the main path when you can head NE towards the lake. You'll soon arrive at where you can use the vine seed. It's pretty straightforward from there...

It's a hard bonus, as they go. The hard parts are:
1. Don't kill the centaurs who give the bonus (listen to their conversation).
2. Find the place to drop the Vine Seed to get to the Centaur chiefs. As previously noted, it's near the lake. Mostly, stay to the right.
