I received the Quest "The art of ambush" to unlock the 2nd perk of a companion. It says I have to clear a bandit hideout near Amitatys with that companion alone.
How do I find that hideout?
I cannot see anything on the map near Amitatys. Do I have to kind of "activate" it first?
EDIT: After a bit of searching i found it.

Will I be able to use my companions for things other than combat?Bannerlord Online - Companion FAQ
These are some commonly asked questions about companions released by the Economy Udate. I will continue to update this as more information becomes available.
How do I obtain a companion?
- Bandit parties randomly have prisoners. Fight and defeat the bandits to be able to recruit the companion after battle.- Higher skilled companions can be rescued from dungeons. Talk to the Barkeep for new tasks. These dungeons reward scouting XP.- Hidden Dungeon: Player vs 19 troops- Hideout in the woods: Player + 6 troops vs 44 troops- Looted Caravan: Full army vs 90 troops. No mounts, like Frostlands.- Slave Traders: Full army vs 90 troops. Including mounts.How many companions can I have?
- You can have up to 5 companions on your character, but also store up to 5 companions in a town alongside troops.What happens if I already have 5 companions and I encounter another?
- The dialog with the companion will allow you to remove another companion or choose not to accept the new companion.- Dismissing an existing companion will return their gear to your inventory.Can companions die?
- No. Like the player, the companions will only be wounded.Can companions lose gear?
- Yes. Companions can lose gear if you lose the battle or the gear gets broken beyond repair.Do companions have special perks? If so, how do I see them?
- Not all companions have special perks. Companions rescued from bandits on the map can have 0-2 beginner perks and rarely an experienced perk.- Companions obtained from the companion hideouts listed above can have 1-2 perks of expert and grand level, making the perks more effective than beginner perks.- You can see the perks from the Companion tooltip window.Special Perks
Below is a small overview of special perks that can increase or decrease the effectiveness of the second perk the companion has. This will not influence the perks of other companions. These perks display a bonus of 0% until they are unlocked.
- Lazy -50%
- Distracted -30%
- Persistent +20%
- Responsible +30%
- Gifted +50%
- Brilliant +70%
The Party based perks below are categorised into 3 groups. The group is defined prior to battle, meaning mounting/dismounting troops during battle will not change their group or perk benefits. (i.e. a mounted falxmen is still considered Infantry.)
- Infantry (All melee units on foot)
- Ranged (All archers and Crossbow troops on foot)
- Mounted (Cavalry and Horse Archers)
Do companion perks stack?
- No. Perks that have the same effect do not stack. Not for different companions and not when a companion has 2 of the same perks.- The Supplier and Troop Trainer perks do not stack with their [Culture] version of the perks. Only the highest value perk will apply to the troops.
Can I level up my companions?
- Only companions that have perks can be leveled up.- Companions share in the XP gained through various methods, including battles, trading and skill books. You can check their progress in the party menu in the same way you can check troop progress. Companions gain a portion of the XP you gain.- Unlocking their perks increases the companion level, raising their stats.
