8. Ask Lebiediew what just happened
Received from: Lebiediew (Campsite – Clear Sky)
Starting point: 1 on the map
Goal area: 1 on the map
Quest description:
Use the stairs to get to the ground floor. Exit the building and go to Suslov. Talk to him and ask him for the reward (screen). You will receive a pendrive. I would recommend that you take this item to Gray (Mechanic). Once this is all taken care of, go back to Lebiediew and talk to him. Agree to help Clear Sky in the next assingment. Notice that you’re treated as a member of this organization from now on.
9. Travel with a guide to the swamps
Received from: Lebiediew (Campsite – Clear Sky)
Starting point: 1 on the map
Goal area: 7 on the map
Quest description:
Try exiting the building. Nimble will talk to you. Ignore him or try learning a few things from him. You can also ask Nimble to describe some of the new functions of your PDA. Subquests will appear on your list from now on. Thankfully, you won’t have to complete them, so you may as well ignore some of them. Head on to the guide (screen) and ask him to take you to the swamp area.
10. Increase Clear Sky’s influence in the swamps
Received from: automatically once you’ve finished ninth quest
Starting point: 8 on the map
Goal area: n/a
Quest description:
Finally we’re starting off with something of bigger importance. This particular quest has a very opened structure. This means you can’t finish it just by going somewhere and doing a few simple tasks. You will have to increase the overall strength of your new fraction (Clear Sky) and you can do that by attacking your enemies, called the Renegades. Start off by opening your personal map and choose the second option from the upper menu. Here you’ll be presented with a detailed description of your quest. Take your time to familiarize yourself with the information you’ve been given.
The most important thing for you to notice are two green power bars (2 on the screen). They represent the overall strength of both fractions. For now Renegades are stronger and your goal will be to make them weaker, so they’ll end up being less powerful than Clear Sky. Below the green bars you can find three small icons (3 on the screen). Hover over each icon and you’ll be presented with a detailed desctiption of what else has to be done to succeed. Also, notice that you’ll recieve goals from time to time (1 on the screen) which are similiar to your subquests.
Now you may go back to the global view of the Swamps area. As you’ve probably noticed, green target icons have begun to appear near your location. Those are the areas where you can perform various subquests. The icons will dissapear after a few minutes, so you’ll have to be quick when planning to participate in certain challenges. Thankfully, avoiding a subquest doesn’t mean it’s gone forever, because a similiar task may appear on your list later during the course of the game. Finishing subquests not only helps to end your main quest but it also provides you with rewards which can be collected in the main campsite.
You will be presented with two types of challenges while trying to weaken your enemies. The easier group are the quests where you’ll be forced to protect allied sectors against enemy attacks. The main reason is that you’ll always have some allied units with you, so you don’t have to rely only on your skills and equipment. The second group are the tasks where you’ll have to take over a sector by eliminating all enemy troops (screen). Remember – it’s all optional. You don’t have to participate in any of the subquests if you don’t want to. You can focus only on exploring the swamps, finding artifacts and opening stashes, however the only way to weaken the second organization is to kill as many renegades as possible.
You will have to keep attacking the renegades by performing subquests or eliminating their camps on your own until you’ve been able to weaken them sufficiently (screen). I wouldn’t recommend participating in a new challenge right away. Focus on killing them for a few more minutes, so you won’t have to worry about returning to this quest if your allies are going to get killed in the meantime.
