Use the torch to reveal three target orbs. One is on top of the barn, where Byron is. The second orb is on the center building opposite the barn, and the third is in the northwest.
You can easily climb the barn by getting on top of the silos and then landing on the nearby cages to climb up to the first orb.
Then, head over to the building opposite the barn and climb the blue silo next to it.
From the second building, you can also see the last orb. It’s at the tallest silo of the farm. After picking up the third orb, return to the torch and interact with it. This will give you the ECHO Log Eridian: Paradise.
2 – Eridian: Lost
Waterstop is an outpost in the east of the Coastal Bonescape. In the center of it is the Evocarium.
Use the torch to reveal three target orbs. One is on top of a small white water tank, the second one is on the round roof, and the third is below the building to the west. Reach all three targets to receive the ECHO Log.
The water tank orb can be accessed from the higher, northwestern side of the Waterstop.
The round roof can be reached from the previous orb. Just jump and glide across to reach the round roof.
For the last orb, look for a crawlspace with a ladder below the northeastern building. Down here, you can find the third orb. Collect the third orb and return to the Evocarium to unlock and reveal the ECHO Log Eridian: Lost.

Activities
Abandoned Auger Mine:
Timid Kyle’s Neglected Opening
Just north of the Abandoned Outpost, where the first settlement with Side Quests is that you will encounter in-game, is the Abandoned Auger Mine. Enter the cave below this settlement. The path will lead to “Timid Kyle’s Neglected Opening”. Be aware that you have to advance in the story until you join the Augers at Terminus Range before you can access Auger Mines.
It is a hideout with a deep, red pit in the center. When you approach the empty wall in this area, it will show a clave. Find the Clave to enter. It will turn blue and be passable when you’ve joined the Augers at Terminus Range.
Pass through the glyph and fight the threshers at the bottom of the tracks. Then look for mine tracks that are barricaded. You can break the barricade. Follow the tracks down to a room with a waterfall and jump-glide over the gap to the next passage.
Follow the only passage, crouching into a room with a ladder. Obviously, climbing it and following the upper path, ending up on a higher level of the previous waterfall room. Here you can cross over again, crouching into a room with a red pool that is filled with more threshers. The path continues behind the altar in this room, where you can destroy another barricade.
Continue following the path until you reach a stone pillar that allows you to cross over to a higher passage that leads to the vending machines of the mines. Drop down to the nearby hole to face Voraxis, a monstrous thresher. Defeating it will complete the Auger Mine activity.
Ancient Crawler: Slugmetal Ditch
The Ancient Crawler: Slugmetal Ditch Activity in the north of Coastal Bonescape is a big round scrapyard, where Rippers camp out. To complete the Ancient Crawler location at the Coastal Bonescape, you first have to find the Deposit. It’s at the bottom of the big tower.
Find an elevated platform with a grapple, located just west of the Deposit slot. There, you’ll find a canister to carry and place inside the deposit.
Now you have to reach the top of the tower. Look to the left for a grapple point on the rocky wall. A metal wall will take you to the top.
Now you can jump and glide over the top of the tower. It has a grapple point at the base of the top platform. There, pull off the metal cover from the device at the top and pick up the Crawler Vehicle Part: Smiley – Vehicle Cosmetic.
Safehouse – Abandoned Outpost
The Abandoned Outpost Safehouse is unlocked during the “Guns Blazing” Main Mission. Just follow Claptrap’s instructions and you will be fine.
Silo: The Stockroom
The Silo: Stockroom is in the northeast center of the Coastal Bonescape. Clear all enemies and interact with the Silo Console at the top of the silo to unlock Fast Travel.
Bobbleheads
Harper’s Hideaway
At the west of Harper’s Hideaway is a cliff down to the beach. On that cliff is a ledge with a bobblehead looking towards the sea.
Order Silo: The Stockroom
Head up to the platform just northeast of the platform. There is a bobblehead looking down to the Order Silo: Stockroom.
Riptide Grotto Southwest
Run up the hill southwest of Riptide Grotto to find the Flick looking out to the sea.
Safehouse Top Exit
Exit the Safehouse from the top and cross over the bridge. There is a green ledge to the right. At the back of this green ledge is the Flick.
Stillshore Coast
From Stillshore, at the southeast coast of the Coastal Bonescape, head northeast and follow the waterline, where you can wind the Bobblehead uphill in the grass.
Waterstop Vista
South of Waterstop, which is in the southeast of the Boastal Bonescape, is a vista ledge. Go to the end of it to find a Bobblehead admiring the view.
Side Missions
-> Also Available: All Side Missions in Borderlands 4
Abduction Injunction
Someone’s been beaming up beasts! Help the rancher bring her babies home.
1 – Check the Herd
Wildhorns are being mysteriously abducted! Investigate the disappearances and bring the beasties home.
At the Herd’s location, a ship will arrive, capture a beast, and take off. Its next destination is the Pool of Re-Flex-tion POI, located west of the Abandoned Outpost. From there, it heads north of Harper’s Hideaway, landing at an unnamed location where the beasts are dropped off.
2 – Free 3 Abducted Beasts
Shoot the chains off the three marked containers to free the beasts. The containers are standing around in the facility.
3 – Kill Order Captors
Grapple up to the bridge and defeat all the hostiles. Then, interact with the creature in the container.
Hangover Helper
For Moonshiners, it’s essential to find the right balance of alcohol. Enough to put the shine in
your belly, but not enough to stop you from drinking and buying more! Help Ole Shammy get it
juuuust right.
1 – Talk to Ole Shammy
The Side Quest leads you to Shammy’s Shack, a location southeast of the Order Silo: The Stockroom Safe House.
2 – Gather 4 Fruit, Kill 10 Kratch & Bada*s Kratch
Ole Shammy is sending you to the Cliffs in the east of the Coastal Bonescape region. To reach the area, you can use a couple of grapple points. The fruit you need is located within Kratch territory. Once you find the fruit, use your grapple to collect it. There are four fruits in total, spread across two plateaus, with two fruits on each. If you don’t have 10 Kratches, that’s okay – it won’t affect your progress.
3 – Place the Fruit into the Stomping Tub
Back at Ole Shammy’s place, put the fruit into the big tub in front of him. Next, you’ll need to “body slam” the fruit. To do this, stand on top of the fruit, perform a double jump, and then press the crouch button while in the air.
4 – Find Geyser
Go east from Ole Shammy’s, but follow the stream. You’ll find the Geyser in the backyard of an old house. Perform the same body slam on the geyser (double-jump & crouch button). When the geyser erupts, grapple the nuggets that are coming out of it until you have a red one.
5 – Place Red Geyser Nugget in Fruit
Return to Shammy’s Shack and place the red nugget in the fruit.
6 – Gather Mangler Scent Glands
Hunt Manglers until you have 9 Mangler Scent Glands. You will need to go to another location halfway, since one Mangler place is not enough.
7 – Place the Scent Glands in the Fruit
Return to Shammy’s Shack and place the red nugget in the fruit, pick it up, and throw it into the barrel on top of the roof.
8 – Gather Partygoers
Once the fruit is in the barrel, interact with the nearby microphone and shoot the keg and defeat them all.
Meat is Murder
Violence! Intrigue! Romance! Okay, no romance, but still!
To start making this Side Quest available, enter the main building at Harper’s Hideaway and look for someone who needs help on the ground floor. Remove the barricade in front of the door to free the quest giver, Byron.
1 – Follow Byron & Search the Barn
Follow Byron around at Harper’s Hideaway. Finding the clues in the barn is not so difficult, since all the clues have a green glow. There are:
1 – the people lying by the drill
2 – the poster with the red strokes and a smiley
3 – A dead wildhorn
4 – At the back of the barn is an arm and a leg.
2 – Find Harper
Harper is missing – those are his arm and leg. Use the highlighted radio on the workbench, and the meat grinder will start to work. Harper is found high up in the barn. Use the kill switch on the grinder, but it won’t work.
3 – Destroy Coolant Regulators
Next, you have to find and destroy two coolant regulators. They are outside, just behind the meat grinder. You have to pull open a round lid first to access them.
4 – Release & Examine Harper, the Radio
To release Harper, just shoot the rope by his feet, then examine the axe he is carrying. Then examine the radio on his chest. This will draw a new wave of Rippers.
5 – Reach Tool Shop
The Tool Shop is in the settlement in the east by the lake near the vending machine.
6 – Find Cave Beyond Waterfall
The shopowner mentions a cave behind the waterfall – just what the riddle said. The waterfall is in the center, north of the Coastal Bonescape region, in Plungeford. The Waterfall is in the north, just by the border to The Howl. Look for a barricaded cave. Inside is a guy called Zeke.
Defeat Zeke and investigate the radio on the desk to complete the Side Quest.
