Starting Location
To start the quest, head to Matriarch’s Mercy at Golden Ridge and enter the large building where you will meet Doc Hollis Beardsley. Speak to him and he will give you a Seer’s Prediction datapad.
Next, read the Seer’s Prediction datapad from the quest item tab in inventory to start the quest.
Recruit the Taxidermist
As the quest begins, your first objective is to find the taxidermist named Gregory Farnham. He can be found standing outside one of the tents near the entrance to Matriarch’s Mercy. Refer to the location below. Speak with him about assisting Doc Hollis. He will ask you to bring some dead Sprats before he can help Doc Hollis.
Where to find Sprats
To find the Sprats, travel northeast of Fort Endurance and look for a large cave shown on the map. Once found, go inside and meet Frankie Billings. Talk to her and she’ll hand over the Sprats at no cost for free, if you succeed in a Speech 8, Observation 8, or Intimidator check. Otherwise, you’ll need to pay 750 Bits to acquire them.
Recruit the Doctor Automech
The Doctor Automech can be found near the entrance to Guardian Estates, within a Scrapper camp filled with hostiles, so prepare for combat. To successfully recruit the Automech, you’ll need to meet one of the following requirements: possess the Brilliant trait, have the Automech Anatomist perk, or achieve Hack 8.
Recruit the Plumber
You can find Benjamin Dorsey, the plumber, in the trenches just north of the Alexandra Station Entrance. He is located on the western side of the trenches. Refer to the map below. You can find him working below a Radio Tower.
If you’ve already persuaded either the Taxidermist or the Doctor Automech to join, mention it to Benjamin, and he’ll agree to assist you. However, if you haven’t recruited either of them yet, you’ll need to pass a Speech 8 check to convince him to help Doc Hollis.
Return to Doc Hollis Beardsley
After recruiting at least one candidate, head back to Doc Hollis to report your progress and claim your reward, concluding the quest.
