MISSION Commencement
TALK to the 1st A.D.
In the Bliss-filled hills southeast of the Moonflower Trailer Park, movie magic is happening over at the Grimalkin Radon Mine. At least it will be once the incessant noise that’s plaguing production of Blood Dragon 3 is stopped. Speak to the director, then the sound guy, before agreeing to clear the vicinity of any sonic problems.
It’s worth completing Story Mission: Clinical Study (for Doctor Charles Lindsey) first, as he rewards you with some special meat you can use to effectively corral the “Angels” enemies you encounter during this mission.
SECURE the Area to Stop the Noise
DESTROY the Honking Truck
Head roughly west of the film set, to a wooded dell where a couple of Resistance fighters are taking on a collection of cultists. Though initially four in number, additional foes appear as you descend, usually from multiple directions, so expect to clear a total of 12 foes from the area. This is straightforward; keep to the high ground surrounding the honking truck. Then destroy the truck with any explosives you like, whenever you like. Note you can’t drive the truck; it is locked.
RETURN to Dean
SECURE the Area to Stop the Noise
When there’s relative peace and quiet, trudge back up the hill to Dean, then head south toward a sloping hillside of large jutting rocks and a series of tree platforms with connecting zip lines. Along with a couple of Resistance fighters, neutralize a pair of Peggies and four additional reinforcements. This can be done at range, from your uphill vantage point, atop a tree platform, or on a rock promontory you can easily drop behind.
RETURN to Dean
DESTROY the Cult Speaker Trucks
Dean shouts at you to head roughly northeast, to a field of Bliss adjacent to the movie set. It seems the cult has set up some annoying speakers on pickup trucks to placate the Angels they have in the field. Prepare for a frantic battle, taking heed of the following facts and attack stratagems:
- In addition to the parked pickup with speakers to destroy, two more vehicles arrive during the combat phase. They have one or two cult members inside. Lob in a couple of grenades, shoot an RPG, use explosives, or pepper the pickups with high-caliber weaponry. Do this as a priority, so combat is as quick as possible.
- You are constantly harried by up to 30 Angels, who doggedly charge at you before swiping at you with shovels. They attack in waves of between two and eight, but you should usually expect four to six at once. They aren’t tactical; when they see you, they charge you. Either lob the experimental meat you and Doctor Lindsey tested during Story Mission: Clinical Study, so they gather around that and can be destroyed with an area-of-effect weapon easily, or stay on the move.
- You can utilize the rock outcrop above the Bliss field, which is much safer than the storage hut, as Angels can easily swarm the roof. From the rocks, you can lob grenades or fire an RPG down on the trucks as they park (after they attract Angels, causing massive damage with a single hit). The nearby watchtower is a good choice; climb up here, then shoot Angels climbing up the ladder behind you. They will congregate below, enabling you to easily drop a grenade and remove multiple foes.
- Another option is to hop into the tractor harvester if it’s parked here, and then drive over every foe. You can easily defeat all the Angels here, but get out to destroy the sonic trucks. Lastly, there’s additional equipment to snag at the entrance to the field, near the film set.
TALK to Guy
As expected, Guy is extremely excited that you’ve quieted the vicinity of the set and rewards you accordingly.
