Walkthrough
- 1Head to Gorthak and find the A.T.A.G. hangar near where Beating Heart quest ended
- 2Pull the lever on the right side of the green-lit gate to open and mount the robot
- 3180-second defense: watch minimap for red pings, use Gatling Gun on clockwork insect swarms
- 4Avoid shooting the reactor — your fire causes severe damage to it
- 5Destroying 50%+ of enemies counts as success; use rockets for balloon mines in final wave
- 6Jump down to the rail gun and interact with the wheel on left side
- 7Use D-Pad to position the cannon, fire to shoot down 2 sky zeppelins to finish quest
Tips
- Watch the minimap constantly — red pings show insect approach directions
- Autoaim helps but you still need to lead targets, especially the balloons
- Save rockets for the balloon mines in the final wave — they're harder to hit with bullets
- If you destroy the reactor, you fail immediately — be careful with area-of-effect attacks
- Check your weapon's ammo before starting the defense phase
