Missing: Pablo

Track down Pablo in Dead Island 2's Venice Beach! This guide details finding Muscle Beach Nutrition, Roses Tattoo Parlor, and Gang Green to complete the 'Missing: Pablo' quest.

Alright, let's get this 'Missing: Pablo' quest sorted out. First things first, you'll need to head over to Venice Beach. If you're not sure how to get there, just use your fast travel map – there's one conveniently located near the info board at the Serling Hotel, where you picked up this quest.

Once you've arrived at the beach, our goal is to find two specific stores: one where Pablo was looking for protein powder, and another for insulin needles. We'll tackle the protein powder first.

Muscle Beach Nutrition (Protein Powder)

The store Pablo visited for protein powder is situated on the southernmost row of shops on Venice Beach. It's called Muscle Beach Nutrition. Now, here's the catch: you can only get inside through the garage door at the back, and it's locked. To get it open, you'll need to find a Circuit Breaker. The power unit for the garage doors is on the other side of a tall fence, so you'll need to do some climbing.

To find the Circuit Breaker, head north from the back of Muscle Beach Nutrition and take a right. You'll find a door leading into a mostly empty car garage. Look for a sales/enquiries office – you'll need to smash the windows to get in. Once inside the office, destroy the box on the other side of the door to open it from the inside. Grab the Circuit Breaker and head back to the area behind Muscle Beach Nutrition. You'll need to throw the breaker over the fence, then climb over yourself using the pallets on the left.

Once the breaker is in the electrical unit on the other side of the fence, make your way to the garage doors at the back of Muscle Beach Nutrition. Use the switch to open them, and prepare for a few zombies inside. You'll find a note called 'Protein Please' lying around.

Roses Tattoo Parlor (Insulin Needles)

Next up is the store where Pablo was searching for insulin needles. This one is located more towards the center of the row of shops near the beach and is called Roses Tattoo Parlor. To get inside, interact with the switch next to the shutter doors and hold it until they're high enough to sprint through. Inside, you'll find a note titled “Need for Needles” – grab it to keep the quest moving forward.

Gang Green (Pablo's Next Stop)

With both notes in hand, it's time to check out more of the beachfront stores. The next place we're looking for is called Gang Green, located in the northern row of shops. Right outside this store, you'll encounter a zombie named Doc Martin. Take him down, as he's carrying the keys you need to unlock the gate at the back of the Gang Green store.

Once you've got the key, head to the back of Gang Green and open the gate. Be super careful as you enter, especially through the hole at the back – this place is rigged with tripwire traps! You can disable them by throwing things, shooting them, or just kicking them. Keep an eye out for a phone on the floor near the counter; it'll have the name “High Stakes” on it. Picking this up will complete the quest and hopefully lead you to Pablo.
