Condensers Down



Condensers Down at (Location Name) is a radiant quest in the Fallout 4 add-on Far Harbor.

Quick walkthrough
Repair the fog condensers before the fog creatures return.

Detailed walkthrough
Fast traveling or entering into one of the settlements in Far Harbor, the Sole Survivor may be approached by a settler with their weapon armed (all settlers in the settlement will have weapons armed). They then will inform the Sole Survivor that the settlement's fog condensers are broken and must be repaired immediately. The Sole Survivor can then agree to help them or turn them down. (Unless they are allied with this settlement, in which case refusing the quest is not an option).

When the quest starts a quest marker will appear showing the number of fog condensers that are yet to be fixed. (This will also locate the damaged condensers on the Pipboy local map). The settler will then try to fix them, or the player character can elect to fix them personally (although the settlers will then have to defend themselves). Another quest marker will appear asking to defend the settlement. Because the condensers are down, the fog will overwhelm the settlement and hordes of creatures and irradiated animals will almost continuously attack (with only brief pauses between waves). The creatures attacking will vary but much stronger enemies can spawn at high levels (ie. enraged fog crawlers, gulper devourers, dusky yao guais, and glowing wolves can spawn all at the same time at high levels). In this case, a settlement can easily be overwhelmed if it is not equipped with strong defenses.

The hordes of enemies will almost continuously spawn until all fog condensers have been fixed. If at least one settler dies for any reason while this mission is active, the quest will fail. The quest ends once all the fog condensers are fixed and the enemies have stopped spawning.
