    Leave the slums and drive the Nomad east from the first Forward Station in the badlands.
  3. 3
    Follow the road northeast, then north, ignoring forks to the southeast and east.
  4. 4
    Continue north as the road heads uphill and wraps around to the southwest, leading to Dr. Nakamoto’s lab.
  5. 5
    Engage the Outcast guards, Anarchists, Raiders, and Sharpshooters in the lab. Be prepared for reinforcements via dropship.

    Loot a container and scan an Angaran Integrated Tech Node.

    Talk to Dr. Farenth. You will have a choice: “Let her keep the formula” or “I’m not buying it”.
  10. 10
    Return to Dr. Nakamoto to complete the quest.
Tips
  • Dr. Nakamoto claims Sloane misused his discovery, turning a potential antibiotic into an addictive hallucinogen called “Oblivion”.
  • Dr. Farenth offers a different perspective on Dr. Nakamoto's motivations.
  • If you let Dr. Farenth keep the formula: 530 XP.
  • If you returned the formula to Dr. Nakamoto: 73 AVP, +5% Kadara viability, and 530 XP.
