Complete the Echoes of the Past quest in fallout 4, investigating the Missing Caravan and facing Enclave forces.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After escaping Vault 111, accept the quest Echoes of the Past, which tasks you with investigating the last known location of the Missing Caravan.
  2. 2
    Head east of Sanctuary. If you have claimed it, The Slog settlement is nearby and can serve as a base.
  3. 3
    From The Slog, head south towards Saugus Ironworks, but cross a bridge to the east when you reach a road.
  4. 4
    Signs of foul play, including blood stains and blast marks, will be visible on the bridge. Your quest marker will update as you get close.
  5. 5
    Follow the trail of carnage along an elevated highway. You will encounter Enclave forces, including Enclave Soldiers, one of whom wears power armor, and a pet turret.
  6. 6
    After clearing the Enclave camp, search for an Enclave Field Operations Terminal. Pick the option [Download Homing Beacon Frequency] to find the Enclave’s main base.
  7. 7
    Prepare for the second, more difficult phase by heading to the Edge of the Glowing Sea map marker, located in the southwestern corner of the map, northwest of the Somerville Place settlement.
  8. 8
    Bring up your Pip-Boy, go to the “Radio” tab, and activate the “Enclave Homing Beacon.”
  9. 9
    Follow the hot-and-cold signal strength updates on your screen, heading west-southwest of the Edge of the Glowing Sea, northwest of the Capsized Factory. Be wary of Deathclaws and Radscorps.
  10. 10
    You will eventually reach the Atlantic Offices building. Go around to the eastern side to find a hole in the wall on a stepped roof level.
  11. 11
    Enter through an open security door. An alarm will blare, and the door will lock behind you, initiating a lockdown.
  12. 12
    Make your way west through a doorway, killing Enclave Soldiers. Expect about half of the enemies to be wearing power armor.
  13. 13
    Note the locked door to the north. To open it, sidle around a hole in the floor to the south, access a terminal, and pick the [Open Door] option. You must exit your power armor to interact with terminals.
  14. 14
    Drop down the hole to the lower floor. Loot Enclave crates and a First Aid box.
  15. 15
    Open a door to the east to reach the lobby, where you will encounter more Enclave Soldiers. Fight your way downstairs and peek through a doorway to the east. Laser Tripwires boobytrap a hole in the floor.
Tips
  • The Enclave Soldiers' power armor makes them durable. Use banked criticals and all your available resources.
  • Trekking into The Glow is dangerous due to powerful enemies and rampant radiation. Ensure you are well-stocked with power armor, Rad-X, RadAway, and Stimpaks.
  • When using the Enclave Homing Beacon, don't be concerned if the signal strength text box vanishes; it is just refreshing.
  • The ground floor of the Atlantic Offices building cannot be accessed directly due to its collapsed state.
  • You must exit your power armor to interact with terminals.
