Fumehead's Debt | Story missions Mad Max Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Go to the Death run location and talk with Crow Dazzle. Then, talk to Tenderloin and again with Crow Dazzle. You need a better vehicle to participate in the race - the Speed Demon. In order to build it, you will need some parts.
To continue the mission, it is required to:
- reduce the threat level on Pink Eye's territory to level three
- take over Top Dog's camp, where you can obtain car paint
- visit the Scavenging Location where you can collect the car body
- have enough Scrap to buy the upgrade
Top Dog's camp
9x Scrap, 4x Insignia, 1x History relic - this are the items you can find in the camp. It is well guarded (level 4), so supply yourself with the maximum amount of ammunition and water. Outside protection consists of 3 towers from which Molotov's cocktails are thrown and of 3 snipers. Immediately after entering you will be attacked by two enemy groups. It is important to quickly eliminate two enemies that throw Thundersticks whenever you get away from them. Focus your attacks on them so that they won't be able to use their weapon. The place where the Thunderstick will soon fall shines with red light on the ground. If it is needed, immediately perform a dodge. On the right side you will find 2x Scrap, the road ahead leads to the further part of the camp.
There you will be attacked by a smaller group of regular opponents. Don't forget about eliminating the War Crier. After the battle, go up the ladder. Then pick the road to the left (in the room on the right you will find, among other things, a History relic) and keep going up, behind the bridge that you must lower. Two enemies will jump at you after you pass the place with a knife lying in the corner. A while further you will find water container and a ladder that leads to the arena.
Fighting this opponent shouldn't give you any trouble. His attacks are similar to ones used by other bosses. Watch his behavior and perform quick dodges. The boss is highly vulnerable to knife attacks (if you stun him, you can perform an "execution"). There is lot of ammunition lying around, you can use it to deal large amounts of damage. If that is not enough, you can position yourself near the flames and make the enemy fall into the fire after an unsuccessful charge. Combined weapon attacks and deceptive dodges should allow you to eliminate the enemy quickly. The camp will be liberated and you will gain the paint you needed.
Car body
Obtaining the car body will be easier. Go to the Reek Hills, to the Scavenging Location marked on your map. Watch out for two traps and four enemies at the entrance. In addition to the car body, you will also find 1x Cleanup crew and 2x Scrap here.
At this point you should be able to build a new Archangel. If not, then check what requirements you are missing (the fastest way to reduce the threat level on Pink Eye's Territory is to liberate few Camps). Open the Workshop window and create the new vehicle - Speed Demon - with the needed upgrades. Now go to the race location.
The race
The race itself isn't very hard. Quickly get ahead of your opponents, this will make the rest of the race calm. Watch the road closely, the race route has been marked with red color. You don't need to strictly stick to the road, but keep attention to the places with burning barrels. To complete the race you must hit at least one of them in each checkpoint. Because of that, it is good to be first since the beginning, it is harder to miss the full set of the barrels. However, if you miss a barrel, turn back immediately - if a barrel is missing, you will fail even if you finish the race first. A safe drive should be enough to win, use boost only on a straight road - falling out of the route will cost you.
After wining, the mission will end and you will be able to recruit Tenderloin.
