The Fan

Follow this Hyper Light Breaker guide to complete The Fan mission. Learn how to track signals, defeat Super Rooks, and find all three buses.

NOTE: You'll have to destroy the DUP Mobile Command Center in the Lantern District to start this mission.

After meeting Eugene, head over to the overpass. You'll be destroying a section of it, but it has been closed off to civilian traffic. Talk to Eugene again when you get there. On the underside of the overpass, approach the four marked pillars. Near the top of the pillars are struts connecting them to the underside of the road at a 45-degree angle. Shoot these off all four pillars. Once done, hop onto the overpass and wait.

The Convoy

Several APCs will be along the road. Drop into the ditch you created and use the road for cover. Neon signs on the left side along the buildings can also provide cover. Work your way along the bridge, encountering Pawns and Knights. The APCs are inert. Try to build up a Karmic Streak. When you see the buses, hop on one and use a special attack to clear out enemies. Approach the marked bus and try to open the front door.

Signal Tracking

Eugene will send you a new app to track DUP radio signals. Activate the app (D-Pad up) on a rooftop and turn until you get a signal. When the bar turns white, you'll be pointing in the right direction (SE). Travel from rooftop to rooftop, checking your proximity. Follow the signal to the docks. Ensure you are stocked on Heavy Ammo and possibly a Karmic Streak. At the docks, you'll find APCs and infantry, including Knights. Staying on the roof is safer, but dropping down to fight is an option. Use dead APCs and overturned cars for cover. Save your heavy ammo for the Knights. After defeating them, check the bus and be ready.

The Super Rook

You'll encounter a new enemy, the Super Rook. These enemies are tough, agile, and have devastating attacks like leaping melee and Concrete Barrage. Phosphor Beams are effective, so move between Neon sources for ammo. Dodge their attacks by dashing, preferably while in the air. Keep moving, jumping, and using Phosphor Beam. There are three Super Rooks. Prioritize dodging, then attacking. If you're having trouble, you can sometimes run away; they may lose track of you, and the game may consider the fight complete.

Bus 2

Bus two is roughly West of your position, near another dock but not as close. It's in an alley next to a small public park. Inspecting this bus is peaceful; you'll investigate and leave.

Bus 3

Bus three is Northeast of your position. Head in that direction, using the radio transmissions to adjust your course. As you get closer, you'll hear combat underway. Angels are fighting on your side in the air. Focus on one end of the alley rather than dropping into the middle of the fight. You'll face Knights and then Super Rooks. Draw the Super Rooks away and use Heavy Ammo on them before returning to the main fight. After the area is clear, attempt to open the back door of the bus to end the mission.
