Arid Nexus Badlands

Hunt around near the Slag pools on the south side of Arid Nexus Badlands in search of an ECHO Recorder revealing the story of a bandit named Carlo. Continue killing the skags in this area until one drops the ECHO Recorder.

There are four primary concentrations of skags in Arid Nexus Badlands, and it’s up to you to hunt down as many skags as it takes to recover the four pieces of the missing gun. The parts of the gun are dispersed randomly, so you may get lucky and find two pieces of the gun in a single skag den, or you may end up eradicating the entire species without finding more than one or two pieces. There’s an element of randomness at work here. Fortunately, the skags repopulate after 25 minutes. You can also speed this up by exiting the area and then returning. This also causes the dens of skags to repopulate, thereby giving you even more skags to kill. Visit each of the four skag dens marked on the minimap until you have found all four pieces, then return to the Fyrestone Bounty Board to collect the reward.
