Follow our step-by-step guide to complete the Shootin' The Shit mission in Saints Row (2022). Learn how to meet Eli, use the shooting range, defeat Marshall, and escape.
Alright, let's get this mission, 'Shootin' The Shit,' done! It's all about getting Eli to be a bit more useful in a firefight, and thankfully, it's pretty straightforward. You'll start this one near the Church, but Eli's chilling way out in the mountains, so grab yourself a fast car – the quicker you get there, the better!
Objective 1: Meet Up With Eli
You'll need to follow the road markings out into the hills. Keep driving until you pull up in the dunes, and Eli will be waiting at the top of the hill. Just get out of your car, walk up, and chat with him.
Objective 2: Use The Shooting Range
After your chat, a barrier will stop you. Go up to it and activate it by pressing the on-screen command. Get ready, because barrels are gonna start flying from both sides! You need to shoot as many as you can. You'll do this four times, so it's a good chance to warm up your aim. Eli will be giving you some commentary, but don't worry about it too much – just focus on hitting those barrels. It's all about practice here.
Objective 3: Defeat Marshall
Looks like our practice session is cut short because some Marshall officers have shown up and aren't happy to see you. Eli will help out, but you'll want to switch to your SMG and help overwhelm them. They tend to cluster around their car, so concentrating your fire on the vehicle itself can cause it to explode and take out a bunch of them at once. Nice!
Objective 4: Escape Marshall Notoriety
Okay, now you've got a bit of a reputation with Marshall, and they've called in reinforcements. This is where you become the getaway driver. Eli will be hanging on the roof, holding them off, while you need to put some serious distance between you and your pursuers. Keep your speed up and take some sharp turns to shake them. You need to keep driving fast until your Notoriety level goes down. Once it does, you've completed the mission!
Unlocked During Shootin’ The Shit
After finishing this mission, you'll unlock a Friend Weapon Upgrade, which will definitely come in handy for future fights.
