The Precinct Historian Guide: Walkthrough & Tips

Walkthrough

1
Begin the mission by speaking with the NPC who assigns you the Historian task. They will provide initial clues about the historical period or event you need to research.
2
Navigate to the first marked location on your map. This will typically be a museum, library, or an area known for its historical significance.
3
Search the area for interactive objects that represent historical artifacts. These could be documents, statues, old photographs, or even audio recordings. Pay attention to your objective marker and any environmental clues.
4
Interact with each artifact to trigger a lore snippet or a piece of the historical narrative. Collect all required artifacts in the area before moving to the next objective.
5
Follow the map markers to subsequent locations. Each location will have its own set of artifacts to discover. Some may require light puzzle-solving or overcoming minor environmental obstacles.
6
As you collect artifacts, you will gradually uncover the story. Ensure you read or listen to all the lore provided to fully understand the context.
7
The final artifact will often be in a more challenging or hidden location, possibly guarded by low-level enemies or requiring a specific action to access.
8
Once all artifacts are collected and the narrative is complete, return to the quest giver to report your findings and complete the mission.

Tips

Always keep your objective marker visible. It will guide you to the general vicinity of the artifacts.
Examine your surroundings carefully. Sometimes artifacts are slightly off the beaten path or require you to look up or down.
If you're stuck, check your journal or quest log for any additional hints or details provided by the NPC.
Listen to the audio logs or read the documents thoroughly. The narrative is the primary reward for this mission.
Be prepared for a few combat encounters, especially near the end of the mission, though combat is not the main focus.
