After finishing the Hunting Grounds, head north across the river and follow the path. Look for mangled trees off to your right to find [TD-W62] Just Got Back. Continue north to reach Cauldron Zeta. The main entrance is locked and guarded by Stalkers. The real entrance is atop the narrow cliff to the left. Climb up and follow the ledge to a short tunnel with the door.
Inside Cauldron Zeta, follow the winding tunnel to an open room. Drop down, head left down a rocky ramp, and continue through the cave system to a pool with an open door. Jump down and proceed through the door. Follow the short tunnel to the main Core where a Thunderjaw awaits.
Warning: Set traps near where you will override the shield before engaging the Thunderjaw.
Immediately target the Thunderjaw's Disk Launchers with Tearblast Arrows and use them to defeat it quickly. Override the core to unlock override codes for Thunderjaws, Rockbreakers, and Stormbirds.
Exit Cauldron Zeta and follow the path west/northwest. Continue along the path and a mysterious man will contact you about equipment near Maker's End. Proceed past a campfire and across a stream with a collapsed bridge to reach the Shattered Kiln Bandit Camp. Nil is waiting on a ridge to the left.
- 1Talk to Nil to start the Bandit Camp.
- 2Take out the two Archers ahead from Nil's ridge.
- 3Enter the camp through the main entrance.
- 4Make your way counter-clockwise around the circular camp, taking out Bandits with arrows and lure call.
- 5Kill the Heavy in the center and any remaining enemies in the loot room.
- 6Loot the camp and sell items to the Merchant.
- 7Search the debris west of the Merchant for Ancient Vessel - Sterling-Malkeet.
- 8Return to the ridge and talk to Nil to complete the camp.
Continue north across a river into a snowy area. You will pass a frozen tank on your left with [TD-W63] Odyssey Injustice? inside. North of this tank is another flipped-over tank where [TD-W64] Odyssey Drives Ready is located in the leaves. Further up the path, outside a rusted guard building patrolled by four Cultists, is another frozen tank containing [TD-W65] Odyssey to Nowhere at the back.
Kill the Cultists and continue along the path to find the equipment stash to the right. Loot it for an optional objective, then proceed to a campfire. A pile of ancient debris in the snow just north of the campfire contains an item.
