Your guide to finding all Crew Challenges in The Droughts in Borderlands 3. Locate Dead Claptraps, Legendary Hunts, Typhon Logs, and Dead Drops with ease.

Alright, let's tackle these Crew Challenges in The Droughts! These are those little extra things scattered around the map that give you some good loot and bragging rights. We've got Dead Claptraps to find, a Legendary Hunt to take down, and some Typhon Logs and a Dead Drop to track down. Don't worry, I'll walk you through exactly where everything is.

Dead Claptrap #1 - Super 87 Racetrack

First up, head to the Super 87 Racetrack. You know, the place with the big oval track? Just hang around the edges of the racetrack, and you should spot a little hidden path. Follow that path, and you'll find this poor Claptrap dangling from above. It's pretty easy to miss if you're just speeding by, so keep your eyes peeled along the perimeter.

Dead Claptrap #2 - The Droughts - Highway

For the second Dead Claptrap, make your way to the Droughts - Highway Fast Travel point. Once you're there, just head southwest. You won't have to go far; it's just outside the main area, chilling near the highway. Keep an eye out as you travel southwest from the fast travel station.

Legendary Hunt - Lavender Crawly Lvl 8 - Varkid Valley

This one's in Varkid Valley. To get there, you'll want to head southwest on the map. It's also a place you'll visit during the 'Bad Reception' side mission, so if you've done that, you'll know the way. The Lavender Crawly is a Level 8 Varkid, and trust me, if you're not around that level yourself, it can pack a punch. The key here is to keep your distance and use your Action Skills. Don't let it get too close! Also, a pro-tip: when you defeat it, make sure to destroy its hatching pod. If you don't, you'll have to deal with more of its family, and nobody wants that.

Typhon Log #1 - Near Eridian Dig Site

Head northeast from the Super 87 Racetrack. You're looking for a Skag den. Once you find the den, search around the middle area. The Typhon Log will be sitting right there in the center. It's a pretty straightforward find once you're in the right spot, just northeast of the racetrack.

Typhon Log #2 - Overlooking Varkid Valley

Okay, for this log, start by heading north from Crimson Command and taking that ramp. Once you're over the ramp, head west and follow the mountain path. Keep going until you reach a cliff that overlooks Varkid Valley to the west. The Typhon Log is sitting right there on the edge of the cliff. It's a nice scenic spot, actually!

Typhon Log #3

You'll get to the area for this log during the 'Taking Flight' Main Mission. When you're tasked with retrieving an Astronav Chip and reach the Dahl Orbital Control, head north from there. You'll find the log chilling on the edge of a cliff. It's in a pretty accessible spot once you're on that mission.

Typhon Dead Drop

This area is tied to the 'Skag Dog Days' Side Mission. Once you've collected all three Typhon Logs, you'll need to head to where you found the 'Big Succ' during that mission. Once you're there, just look around the side of the wall. The Dead Drop is usually hidden there, and it's definitely worth checking out for some good loot!
