Ok, so this quest asks you to go to Lighthouse, the new map added with patch 0.12.12. The place you need to go is heavily guarded by snipers, so make your steps cautiously. If you cross the line and deem yourself a potential danger, you will be struck and mowed down until you get out of range. But first, this is where you need to go:

As you can see in the image above, the quest location is southeast on the map, on the road leading to the Lighthouse itself.

  • Use a painkiller before running deeper towards the Lighthouse.
