Complete The Nests mission in Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon by destroying blood dragon nests and using the elevator turret.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Use the weapon vending machine if desired, grab a flamethrower from nearby crates, and hit the switch indicated by the objective marker (waypoint (a marker on your map you've manually placed as a destination)) to open the door.
  2. 2
    Kill the approaching chargers (2), robo-dogs (2), snipers (2), and heavy gunner at the end of the long hallway.
  3. 3
    Proceed through the open door.
  4. 4
    Destroy all blood dragon eggs in the room with your flamethrower.
  5. 5
    Once the eggs are on fire, the doors at either end of the room will open, and two Blood Dragons will enter the area.
  6. 6
    Enter the door opposite the entry way to find a small tunnel relatively safe from the dragons.
  7. 7
    Locate the four entrances to tunnels, each leading to a room with a blood dragon nest filled with eggs.
  8. 8
    Exit a tunnel, use your flamethrower or molotoxes to light a fire elsewhere to lure the dragons away, then quickly fry the nest's eggs.
  9. 9
    Retreat back into the tunnel while avoiding the blood dragons.
  10. 10
    Repeat steps 6-9 for all three nests.
  11. 11
    Sprint back to the room where you dropped down and hit the switch on the elevator.
  12. 12
    Wait for a Blood Dragon to enter the room. Stay crouched to remain undetected and toss a cyber-heart to distract it, or kill it.
  13. 13
    Wait for the small wall at the back of the lift to lower, granting access to a vehicle-mounted turret gun.
  14. 14
    Hop onto the turret; the lift will begin to rise.
  15. 15
    Use the turret to kill enemy soldiers on platforms and in alcoves as you ascend.
  16. 16
    Switch to the driver's seat and drive through the base until a cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) plays to complete the mission.
Tips
  • To lure the dragons to another location, use your flamethrower or molotoxes to light a fire somewhere, and they will come running, allowing you to slip in behind them and finish off frying the nests.
  • Consider liberating garrisons at X604.2, Y386.3, X600.2, Y310.7, and X523.1, Y368.8 before starting this mission to gain additional experience, weapon attachments, and increase fast travel capability.
