Borderlands 4 One Gassy Issue Walkthrough Guide
1. Enter the Locust Production Facility
After talking to Beth by the house, head to the marked location on your map to begin the Borderlands 4 One Gassy Issue mission.
On the console, press the button to call the elevator. When it doesn't descend, use your grappling hook to pull it down, then use the hook again to reach the upper floor.
2. Access Through Vent
Turn left to find a vent. Pull off the lid to enter it, then drop down into a room where you'll need to defeat Order security forces.
3. Connect the Locust Gas Engines
To connect the Locust gas engines, you need to find and pull two levers in the room:
- First, climb the lift marked with yellow paint and jump to the platform to pull the first lever
- Next, pull the lift going right and use it as a platform to jump to the second lever
- After pulling both levers, activate the Locust gas engine at the console
How to Reroute Locust Gas in Borderlands 4
1. Destroy Bio-Armored Door
Take the door behind the console to reach the sorting station entrance. Use the newly activated Locust cannister dispenser to destroy the bio-armored door, then enter and defeat the security forces.
2. Disable Force Fields
You'll need to disable the force fields in the room by interacting with the consoles in front of them. Important notes:
- You can only disable one force field at a time
- After disabling each field, you'll face a wave of enemies
- Prepare for combat before interacting with each console
3. Defeat the Station Defender
After disabling the force fields, you must defeat the station defender. This enemy has armored skin, so you need to:
- Use nearby Locust cannisters to temporarily disable its armor
- Damage it while the armor is down
- Repeat this process until it's defeated
4. Reroute the Locust Gas
Finally, go to the console at the end of the room and turn the switch to reroute the Locust gas throughout the city, completing the Borderlands 4 One Gassy Issue mission.
