- The Converter in North Abessa
- Overrun by Reavers
The Converter in North Abessa
How to unlock this quest: It is unlocked automatically after reaching the Converter in North Abessa.
We recommend starting this quest after meeting with Sestak in Converter in South Abessa, which occurs during the Refuge of the Separatists main quest. This is because you will need access codes to turn off converters in other parts of the world, which can only be obtained after meeting with Sestak.
Unfortunately, the converter in North Abessa (located northeast of Domed City) is heavily guarded by strong Albs and Fighting Colossus machines. To avoid fighting them, you can use your jet pack to bypass the main entrance and the Albs guarding the walls (an example is shown in the picture). You must carefully approach the tower’s entrance and lure the soldiers guarding it to a more secluded place.
Enter the converter and eliminate the Albs. Use lifts to reach new floors and eventually reach the “boss” – Alb Commander. Avoid his melee and ranged attacks, and gradually reduce his health points until he is defeated (175XP).
After the battle, search for the large red console shown in the picture. Use it to turn off the converter (1000XP).
Warning – Before leaving the converter, examine the rooftop platform where you can find valuable items, including The Redeemer energy weapon and Elex Drinks (which provide bonuses to your character’s development).
Overrun by Reavers
How to unlock this quest: Speak with Albert near the Dam.
This quest can be activated when you reach the eastern part of the Dam, near the Converter in South Abessa. Approach the Clerics standing near the Dam (shown in the picture) and speak with Egon and Albert. You can offer to help eliminate the bandits that have appeared near the Dam. Near the end of the conversation, you can choose to attack them alone or cooperate with the Clerics. The second option is better, as the risk of Egon or Albert dying in battle is low (you can save the game before deciding, just in case).
The bandits occupy the area around a gas station. Reach the other end of the Dam, where the Reavers are located inside and around a destroyed gas station. You can attack them in any order (each bandit killed earns 100XP), but remember that their leader is stronger than the rest. Some enemies also have good ranged weapons. If you are accompanied by the Clerics, avoid using grenades, flamethrowers, or other attacks that may accidentally harm them.
Once you finish the battles, your next task is to locate Albert and claim your 400XP reward. Don’t forget to scavenge the enemy bodies as well, as you may discover valuable loot such as the Plasma Blaster PLS-T or the Flamethrower Mark B. Additionally, you can retrieve a detonator from the station building and hand it over to Albert, though no bonus rewards will be granted for doing so.
