Need help with The Commuter faction quest in The Outer Worlds? Follow our guide to find Graham Bryant, talk to Carlotta, and secure those printing press rollers.

Alright, let's get this quest, 'The Commuter,' sorted out. It's a pretty straightforward fetch-and-carry job, but like most things in The Outer Worlds, there are a few ways to approach it, especially depending on who you've talked to already.

Where to Start: You'll find the quest giver, Graham Bryant, in Amber Heights on Monarch. To get there, head towards the eastern edge of the Monarch map, a bit south of Stellar Bay. Once you land in Amber Heights, make your way east from the main gate. You'll need to go up a hill to the southeast. Look for two buildings; Graham's in the northern-most one, upstairs.

The Setup: Graham's a bit of a character, really focused on his mission to spread the word. You'll chat with him, and he'll ask you to grab some printing press rollers from an MSI contact named Carlotta. He might also ask for some high-capacity cartridges, but that's optional.

Dialogue Options & Consequences: Now, Graham's dialogue can change a little based on your progress in other quests. If you've already met the Information Broker or rescued Huxley (which you'll do during 'Radio Free Monarch' and 'Signal Point in Space' for the Broker, and 'BOLT with His Name' for Huxley), the conversation will be different. If you haven't done those, you'll be asking Graham if the Iconoclasts need help with anything, and the Huxley talk will be different. If you *have* done those quests, you'll be trying to convince Graham to stop his broadcasts. There's a chance to pass a [Science 35] check if you've met the Information Broker, but honestly, it doesn't really change the quest's outcome.

What You Need to Do: Your main goal is to find Carlotta and get those printing press rollers. She's the Iconoclast's MSI contact. After you talk to Graham, you'll need to track her down. The game doesn't explicitly tell you where she is right away, but she's usually found in the vicinity of Amber Heights or within the Iconoclast settlement.

Tips
  • Keep an eye on your dialogue options. Sometimes passing skill checks can open up new paths or information, even if they don't drastically change the quest outcome.
  • Remember that Graham is pretty set in his ways. Your primary goal is to get the supplies he needs.
  • If you're looking for the optional high-capacity cartridges, make sure to ask about them or look for them when you're dealing with Carlotta.
