3: Airdrop | Main quests - The Slums Dying Light Guide

How to unlock: Complete main quest number 2 - First Assignment (Tower on the map).

Reward: 5000 experience

Look for the parachute.

Leave the Tower and enter the nearby vantage point so that Crane can contact GRE (number 3a on the map). Now you have to head north to reach the first drop point (number 3b on the map). It is best to travel across the rooftops to see more. Look around the area in order to find the parachute, near which you will see a box. Reach the box to notice that it's empty.

The box from the last airdrop.

Watch the short cut-scene about the airdrop and head towards the place where it happened (south-east, number 3c on the map). After arriving at the place (it is the safe zone that you've been to before), it will turn out that Rais's bandits are already there. Don't attack them, but go past them instead, as they are carrying firearms. Wait until the location of the next airdrop is added to your map (number 3d on the map) and head towards it. Before you approach the box, make sure that your hero is healed and craft some Night Vision Boosters.

When in danger, flash UV towards the infected.

Start running immediately after you regain control over Crane, because you will be chased by very fast and agile night type of infected. If possible, head west and stay on the rooftops. Don't try to fight the monsters or other zombies, but you can slow the night type using UV Flashlight and look for light traps. Traps can be activated from distance by pressing the appropriate button, when an information shows up on the screen. The easiest way is to lose the chase by using parkour moves.

You can sneak towards the Tower or to one of the safe zones that you've unlocked earlier.

After losing the chase, check your current position. You have to reach the Tower or one of the safe zones that you've already unlocked (green house icons on the map). You must be in the stealth mode and also use Survivor Sense to highlight the nearby monsters. Using a Night Vision Booster may be very helpful. It is not advisable to use a Flashlight, because you can be easily spotted by the enemies. If you've chosen to go to a safe zone, use the bed located inside to make it till the morning. If you've gone to the Tower, you don't have to wait. Go inside and go to the nineteenth floor to talk to Brecken (you will also unlock the Runner's Suit).
