Escape the Quarantine Zone with Dr. Garrow Questline - Atomfall Guide

 Guide by Warren Woodhouse

Step 1: Free Dr. Garrow from Skethermoor Prison

• Gain the trust of Captain Grant Sims first so you can enter the prison smoothly without the Protocol guards immediately opening fire.

• Head through the tunnels into the isolation area where Dr. Garrow is locked up and talk to her.

• Go to the nearby security room, grab the Signal Redirector and use it to unlock the cells.

• Escape the prison (guards will become hostile once she escapes) and meet her at the Central Processor room in the Interchange.

Step 2: Retrieve Her Research Notes

• Garrow will ask you to recover her hidden research notes.

• Head down to the Robotics Facility (restore power to the administration/experimentation wings if needed) to access the lower floors, avoid the B.A.R.D. robots and grab the documents.

• Return to Dr. Garrow with the notes and she will give you a keycard for the Casterfell Dam Data Store in Casterfell Woods.

Step 3: Run the "GEN ERA" Command at Casterfell Dam

• Head to the data store in Casterfell Woods using the keycard.

• Use your Signal Redirector to route power to the console (climb boxes and servers to hit the overhead junction box if needed).

• Interact with the Data Interface Console and type in the GEN ERA command to delete the files and cover her tracks. (Do not choose "GEN MOVE," as that ties into Joyce Tanner's path instead.).

Step 4: Extract the Oberon Sample

• Return to Dr. Garrow at the Interchange. She will explain that you need to go to the Oberon sitebeneath the power plant.

• Head to the Oberon dig site, place two atomic batteries and use the mining equipment/sample extractor lever to get a core sample.

Step 5: Meet Garrow for the Ending

• Bring the meteorite/core sample back to Dr. Garrow in her head office on the lower level of the Robotics Laboratory.

• Talk to her by the evacuation area in her office to trigger the final escape and unlock the ending.
