Without further ado, here is how to get the smoke bomb compressor in star wars outlaws.

How to get the Smoke Bomb Compressor in Star Wars Outlaws

To get the Smoke Bomb Compressor in Star Wars Outlaws, you need to Complete the Intel Expert “Mechanic” And then complete the intelligence “Smoke Bomb Compressor” after that.

After completing the expert quest “The Mechanic”, you will unlock the quest chain “Smoke Bomb Compressor”. Access your journal to track this quest, then board your speeder.

You need to head to the quest marker in the northern part of Boulder Forest.

When you’re near the marked area, keep an eye out for a cave entrance on the ground level that’s blocked by strong winds. Use your Speeder and speed up your progress through this entrance to exit the windy area into a smaller, open section.

Look around until you find the grapple point, then use it to climb up. Follow the path and you’ll come to Fallen Mound – this is where you need to be to get your compressor.

Once here, follow the path to the left and continue on this path until you come to an enemy beast on the right. You can sneak past it or shoot it with your blaster, it took several shots to take it down.

In this area, look around until you find a climbable wall – climb it and then continue following the path until you encounter stronger winds.

The wind will die down and then pick up again. To get through this section safely, you should plan to run for Kay to cross the trail as the wind dies down. We recommend running as soon as the wind dies down to give yourself plenty of time to cross.

Once you have safely crossed, rappel down and follow the path to the right until you come to another area blocked by strong winds.

Here you should be able to see a device in front of you that can be activated using your blaster’s ion attachment. Shoot this device multiple times until it activates. When it does, the wind will stop for a few seconds.

When the wind dies down, run forward and crouch behind the large rock in the center of the area while facing the same device. Once the wind starts up again, you should be protected from it and you should reactivate the device.

Once the wind has died down, come out from behind the rock and head towards the small gap in the rocks to your left – Kay will walk through these and you will be out of the wind once inside.

Inside, you’ll find yourself in a large room blocked by a strong gust of wind. Look to the right of the gust of wind and you’ll see another device here. Activate it the same way you did the one outside, then head across to the left side of the area where the control panels are.

Once you reach the control panels, turn back to where you entered the room and you should see two levers on the control panel in front of you. Command Nix to pull one lever down while you interact with the other – they must be pulled down at the same time to activate. Once they are, the door in front of you will open.

At this point the winds will have started up again, so activate the device with your Ion Blaster Module to stop it once more, then quickly run across to the door you just opened to head into the next area.

Collect the items from the chests in this area, then follow the path to the left to go through the next set of doors. Continue following the path through this dark room and enter the Turbolift. Exit the Turbolift and a container will be right in front of you, open it to retrieve the Smoke Bomb Compressor for your Speeder.
