Scout Quest Dialogue

Someday we will get rid of the invisible hand, which used to brand us with employee badges and now has caused this mess, and I think it leads us to a great war. At least, all current events look like preconditions to it. I worked here for the chemical plant, as an ordinary foreman. It was a good time, everyone thought so, including me. Now it’s full of Scavs and swarming with brigands and outlaws. I want to make use of some of the factory premises, find out what exits can still be used. Go there and check it out.

Good old Factory has sure changed, but you’ve brought good news. The sealed doors are still there…

Guide

There are 4 Factory extractions with the latest expansion of the map. However, the task hasn’t been reworked and it asks you to visit only the first three extracts. The task asks you to find all three locations at Factory. You don’t need to own the Factory key to unlock the doors of the two locked extractions. Instead, you can just get close to them and the subtask will still complete. After doing that, you would need to survive and extract, so having a Factory key would be quite beneficial as you could extract at any given extract at any time.

The extractions on Factory can be found on the map below:
