Overview:

Dr Vee's factory is under siege by malfunctioning robots, and players will be tasked with repairing the systems, battling rogue machines, and helping re-activate Charleston 2.

Getting Started:

Players can start the instance by having the party leader speak to Charleston 1 at Einbroch (coordinates 227, 197).

Accept the quest and proceed to the Charleston Factory via the portal next to Charleston.

Destroying the Zone Security Devices

Upon entering the instance, walk towards Charleston 1 and she will ask you to destroy the Zone Security Devices. Players will need to destroy a Zone Security Device in each section before they are allowed to the next section.

Go left and kill the first Zone Security Device. A portal will appear allowing to move forward. Repeat the same process 3 more times until Charleston 1 asks you to meet her at the lab. The portal to the lab is located top centre of the map (2@mcd 141, 199). Moving there will be tricky with all the Security Robot impeding the player's progress.

Lab Requests

Inside the lab, go near Dr. Vee to trigger the next scene. The party leader needs to speak with Charleston 1 (2@mcd 121, 217) and she'll ask players to kill 3 Rock Steps. Their locations will be indicated on the minimap. Return to Charleston 1 after killing 3 Rock Steps. She tells you there's a problem with the generators, you have to investigate them. Locate the generators as indicated on the minimap. Players will need to walk close to these coordinates. (2@mcd 175, 195) (2@mcd 127, 81) (2@mcd 87, 230)

Return to the lab once you've investigated all 3 generators. Talk with Charleston 1 again and then follow her to the right.

Note: For the next part, the portals will get closed so it is recommended to bring everyone in the lab before proceeding.

Speak with Charleston 2 and a next scene will begin. The portals will close. Waves of robots will start to spawn. Players must kill all of them to proceed and the portals will re-open.

The Core

Walk out of the lab and go all the way south below the middle (2@mcd 130, 127). Charleston 1 and 2 will be waiting for you.

Move near Charleston 2 to trigger the next dialogues. Charleston 1 requests you to gather 1 Explosive Powder ID: 6213. This drops from the Step found in the instance.

Bring it to her and she will blow up the door, creating a portal for players to enter the Core.

Walk near the NPCs to trigger the MVP battle. You have to defeat both MVPs to progress.
