Availability: Speak to Scooter in Sanctuary after “Bright Lights, Flying City.”

The Highlands

Scale the buildings alongside the clock tower to reach the power supply via this Hyperion container.

Scooter’s got wind that the people in Overlook could really use a helping hand: they’re under house arrest due to their brain-shivers, and they’re running low on medicine. Use the Fast Travel station to return to Overlook in The Highlands at once and knock on Karima’s door. She lives in the house directly east of the Bounty Board.

Karima needs you to get the power supply from the town’s clock and install it into the medical dispensary. Ascend the stairs behind the clock tower and leap across to the nearby roof. From there, continue the ascent to the container that serves as a bridge from the neighboring roof to the clock. You can access the power supply from within this container.

Install the power supply alongside the inoperable Zed’s Meds vending machine on the west side of the town square (this vending machine is only usable during this mission string). Karima needs you to collect the lone dose of Shivers Medicine from the vending machine. Don’t worry; it doesn’t cost anything.

The Shivers Medicine is the Item of the Day and can be had for free.

Kill the Requisition Officer, then take out his Loader escort before exiting the vehicle.

Helping get one dose of Shivers Medicine was a start, but Karima needs you to get two more. Secure a vehicle from the nearby Catch-a-Ride, and follow the main highway north across Blake Bridge to where the Requisition Officer is located. He’s accompanied by two WAR Loaders, but isn’t any match for the firepower of a Light Runner or Bandit Technical. Defeat both the Requisition Officer and his Hyperion escort, then secure the next dose of Shivers Medicine from the vending machine on the officer’s back—just watch out for the stalkers in this area!

Battle past the threshers to this container on the edge of the lake to find the third dose of Shivers Medicine.

The third and final dose of medicine was left in a shipping container that washed up on the beach beneath the Hyperion Bridge. Drive back along the main highway in the direction you came and continue through the tunnel and down to the water of Lake Shining Horizons. The ground in this area is quite alive with threshers of all shapes and varieties, so proceed with caution. The threshers—Wormhole Threshers in particular—can obliterate a vehicle in no time, so consider parking uphill and traversing the lakeshore on foot.

Return to Overlook with the medicine, and deliver the three doses to each of the houses marked on the minimap. Place the medicine in the retractable mail slot of each house to avoid the risk of spreading the horrible disease.
