How to get to Necker's hideout

Head south from Fort Charybdis. Once you are at the marked point on the shore, the quest marker will be transported underwater to the location where the entrance to the shelter is located. Dive into the lake.

When you reach the marked location, you will see that the passage is closed. To unlock it, you first need to take the xenochrome octopus abilities. The closest one is on the left side of the door near the time Achievement: Challenger .

Return to the passage. First, hit the orange crystal to make it change color. Then use the octopus skill to operate the control mechanism, so the square valve near the door will begin to move. Continue applying force until the cube is at the other end of the grooves. At this point, stop the impact and hit the colored Elemental Reaction: Crystallize again. The valve should remain in the position of the last closed valve. If you do everything right, the door will open.

Deal with Necker

Once you get inside the fortress, move further along the passage until you find yourself in a large hall. A mek will attack you there. Be sure to take with you any hero who owns the geo element to quickly destroy the robot’s Noelle: Protector .

During the battle, Necker will appear. He is waiting on the gallery one level above. You can get to it by entering the water portal that will appear after defeating the Mek. At the “Upstairs” you will also have to fight Necker.

Return the criminals to the Institute

After talking with Necker and detaining him, go back to the house where you left Edwin and Lemark. Start a dialogue with them.

When the bickering between Necker and Edward stops, go to the New Institute. Find Choiseul and Raimondo to discuss the transfer of detainees. This will complete the task.
