Quest Guide: Power Out

Objective list

• In one round
• Find the Electrical Substation south of the Spaceport, next to the Checkpoint
• Find any sign of the missing engineer
• Carry the fuse/battery back to the Electrical Substation
• Enable the power switch on the Fuse Box

What to bring

• A reliable mid-range primary and a sidearm or close-range backup; most quest deaths happen while rotating, not while looting.
• A light-value raid kit. 'In one round' objectives punish greed, so bring enough to survive, not enough to cry over.
• Enough meds and shields to survive two rotations; multi-location quests punish players who arrive at the final step with no resources left.

How to run it

Because the tracker says this must be done in one round, treat the named objective areas as a route: get in, clear the interaction, confirm the update, then rotate immediately. You are not trying to win the whole lobby; you are trying to leave with the quest done.

1. Step 1: Find the Electrical Substation south of the Spaceport, next to the Checkpoint

   Once you are at the point of interest, clear the nearest angle first, then interact. Most misses on this step happen because players sprint past the actual prompt or loot through the room too early.

2. Step 2: Find any sign of the missing engineer

   Once you are at the point of interest, clear the nearest angle first, then interact. Most misses on this step happen because players sprint past the actual prompt or loot through the room too early.

3. Step 3: Carry the fuse/battery back to the Electrical Substation

   Treat this as a hard objective, not a side stop. Finish the interaction, confirm the quest tracker updates, then rotate before the next squad arrives.

4. Step 4: Enable the power switch on the Fuse Box

   These interactions keep you still and make noise. Heal first, clear the immediate area, complete the interaction, then move off the objective instead of admiring it.

Where players usually throw this quest

• Starting the raid without a simple, clockwork route. One-round quests fall apart when you improvise after the first gunshot.
• Taking a fight on the way out just because you hear it. Quest raids are won by discipline, not by K/D.

Miswired note

Use the named area as your anchor, then plan your extract before you touch the objective. That matters more than another backpack worth of salvage on Spaceport.
