How to unlock this quest: Speak with Hector in Domed City and join the Claws.

SPOILER – If your actions during the quest lead to Domed City being attacked and conquered by the Albs, the Claws’s hideout will be accessible only through the secret southern sewer entrance.

Pick up Claws’ Mission: Cleric Research from the Job Trunk, and head for the Cathedral in The Hort.

You’ll have to gain access to the archives in the Cathedral basement. You can enter them following the steps described in the walkthrough for the side-quest Question of Faith. Just to remind you, you can wait until late evening for Karl to leave his post for evening prayer. Another option is to use the console shown on the screenshot above. If you have at least 3 points in Crafting, you can add yourself to the list of persons authorized to enter the archives. Your last option is to join the Clerics and gain a rank of Acolyte or higher.

You’ll need to acquire four pieces of Cleric Research Documents - Elex: On Behalf of the Claws - Walkthrough - Abessa - Elex Game Guide

You’ll need to acquire four pieces of Cleric Research Documents. Two of them can be found on shelves in the archive. The remaining two are a bit harder to find, as they are held by NPCs (above you see an example of an inventory of a document carrying NPC). You’ll need to succeed in stealing the papers from them, using the Pickpocket skill (200XP).

Having completed the new tasks and placed the stolen items in one of the Drop Boxes, return to the Claws’ hideout in Domed City. You can now pick up three new jobs from the Job Trunk (100XP).

 

Jon - ‘A Compromising Recording’

Head for The Fort (the residence of the Outaws) and go to Hank’s bar. You’ll have to examine one of the guestrooms; which have restricted access. Sneak in by night or quickly run into the room, grab the Hidden Recording Device shown on the picture and escape before you’re caught and attacked by angry bar staff (200XP).

 

Job - ‘Elex for the Claws’

You’ll have to head west of The Fort and find the hideout in the gorge with lava, as shown on the screenshot above - Elex: On Behalf of the Claws - Walkthrough - Abessa - Elex Game Guide

You’ll have to head west of The Fort and find the hideout in the gorge with lava, as shown on the screenshot above. Your only option is violence – you’ll have to kill two common Reavers and their stronger leader, Slater. Watch out, because Slater uses a flamethrower at range at is a heavy hitter in melee (you can either throw explosives at him, or quickly approach Slater to prevent him from using the flamethrower). Having defeated the enemies (375XP) search Slater’s body and pick up Logan’s Notes. Read then to learn the combination to the Duke’s safe, which is 8641.

Note – The code to the safe can also be acquired without having to fight the bandits. The code remains the same, so you can rely on the guide for that matter.

Now, reach the Duke’s Bunker in The Fort - Elex: On Behalf of the Claws - Walkthrough - Abessa - Elex Game Guide

Now, reach the Duke’s Bunker in The Fort. Go to the upper floor and take a look at the guarded room. You can kill the guard, but it may cause some trouble. It’s better to use the bed and wait for the night. The guard will leave his post, and you can sneak your way into the Duke’s stash. The most important element is of course the safe, visible on the screenshot above – use the code 8641 to open it and collect 10 Natural Elex and 350 Elexit (200XP). Additionally, the stash will contain additional stuff, including the legendary shotgun Thunderclap.

 

Job - ‘Mad Bob’s Weapon Cache’

Find Mad bob in The Fort. You’ll have to steal from him, which means you need to have the Pickpocket skill. Place yourself behind Mad Bob and make sure nobody’s looking. You’ll need to swipe Mad Bob’s Key (see the screenshot) (400XP).

Now you can place all the stuff in any of the Drop Boxes. You’ll find a Message from H.

 

Ending the quest

Return to the Claws’ hideout in Domed City for the last time and talk to Hector (100XP), who’ll tell you that you’ve completed all tasks his group could offer. For completing this long questline you’ll receive 2000XP and Hector’s Chest Key (it should contain large amounts of Elexit, among other things).
