The Propaganda Speaker is on the top floor of the “The Flarewell” Order checkpoint in the south of the Hungering Plain.

Evocarium – 1

1 – Eridian: Empty

Operant Control is an Order Checkpoint south of Horace’s Oversight in the south of the Hungering Plain. The Evocarium torch is on the roof. There is a grapple point you can use to get up there.

Use the torch to reveal three target orbs. One is on the tall tank just ahead of the torch, the second one is on top of the silo, and the third one is on the roof of the command Center.

For the orb on the tank ahead, you can jump and glide across right from the Evocarium torch.

Then, glide back to the torch and use the height with a double jump and glide to reach the ladder of the silo so that you can get the orb.

Glide back to the roof of the torch. From there you can double-jump and glide to the roof ot the other building. There is a small platform you can land on at the side of the roof. From there, walk the narrow rim to the left, where you can jump up to the roof to get the orb. Return to the torch to receive the ECHO Log Eridian: Empty.

Vault Symbols – 2

In the Main Mission, Down and Outbound, you have to retrieve four pieces of Contraband at Horace’s Oversight. Here in the north of the outpost, near one of the contraband pieces, is the Vault Symbol etched to the wall. In the room with the contraband, pull off the ventilation cover and go through to the other room to find the Vault Symbol.

2 – The Roaming Pasture

West of the Roaming Pasture Ancient Crawler in the northeast of the region is a wrecked, wooden house. Enter it and look up to the upper floor to find the Vault Symbol.

Activities

Ripper Drill Site: The Prospects

How to do it:
First, take on the local troublemakers until the boss, “Sidney Pointy Legs,” decides to make their grand entrance.

Ancient Crawler: The Roaming Pasture

The Ancient Crawler: The Roaming Pasture Activity in the north of Hungering Plain is a big, still intact Ancient Crawler. To complete the Ancient Crawler location at the Hungering Plain, you first have to find the Power Core. It is on ground level, loaded on a truck.

The Power Core deposit slot is at the top of the Ancient Crawler. Use the access ramp while carrying the core. You can use the staircases for most parts of the Ancient Crawler.

At the top, you will be attacked again. That’s where you will have to throw the power core up to the next level before you can put it into the deposit slot. The reward is waiting at the top. Pull away the metal panel, and you can pick up the Awoooooo! Vehicle Cosmetic.

Bobbleheads

Farm House: Second Floor

Starting at “The Flarewell” down south, take the road north until you spot a cozy little farm on the right. Step into the farmhouse, head upstairs to the bedroom, and voilà – there’s a bobblehead lounging in a comfy chair, living its best life while waiting for you to flick it!

Horace’s Oversight

Just outside the walls of Horace’s Oversight, to the east, where the overhead tracks escape the outpost like they’ve got somewhere better to be, you’ll find a comfy couch lounging proudly with a bobblehead kicking back on it.

Horace’s Oversight 2

Reach the overhead tracks going west of Horace’s Oversight to find another Bobblehead there.

Purge Guard: Cliff House

Southwest of the Purge Guard (northeast of the Hungering Plain, if you’re keeping track) sits an adorable little house perched on a hill by the road. Climb up to the roof and you’ll find a bobblehead waiting for you. Fair warning: getting up there might take a few tries.

Seaside Cave

To the east of the Hungering Plain, at water level, is a cave with an easel that has a beautiful painting on it that the Bobblehead admires.

The Debilitory

High up in the mountains north of the Debilitory, a lone bobblehead sits, smugly gazing down at the Debilitory and the lake like it’s king of the world. Want to join it? Start at the lake north of the Debilitory, head east, and keep your eyes peeled for a cave with lamps and some handy grapple points. Adventure awaits—don’t leave the bobblehead hanging!

Side Missions

-> Also Available: All Side Missions in Borderlands 4

No Place Like Home

Southeast of Faction Town: The Launchpad is a house across the bridge with Claptrap calling out for help.
“Things were simpler on Pandora. Probably.”

1 – Find Portrait, Reach Order Base

The mission target is east of the Side Mission starting point. At the Farewell POI, you need to defeat the marked Order guard to retrieve the keycard before you can go to the depot to find the Portrait. In the eastern parts of the Flarewell Order Base.

2 – Find the Entrance to the Depot

The console isn’t working, so you’ll need to find another way in. Head through the broken wall near the console and follow the cable running from it. You’ll find a hidden console. Use it to enter the Depot and grab the Portrait.

3 – Retrieve VR-ON1CA’s Processor

Next, Claptrap wants you to find VR-ON1CA’s processor in the south of The Flarewell. Exit the depot through the top to reach the area. Work yourself to VR-ON1CA’s location and the laser controls. Use those and reposition the panels so the laser beam points to the wall, where VR-ON1CA is.

Note that there are only two panels with levers that you can grapple with to move them.

4 – Find the Crimson Resistance Asset

The door in the room where VR-ON1CA was stored will now open, and you can ascend to the tower. There is a ladder going down, but also a metal wall going up. Climb the metal wall and grapple the solar panels at the top.

Jump-glide across, where you can climb another metal wall. On the other side of the next level, you can pull the solar panels again to advance.

Use the panel as a platform to reach the other side. You’ll need to grapple the panel twice to turn it into a platform. Once across, climb the final metal wall to reach the target. Then, return to Claptrap.

Place the three recovered items on the boat and place the explosives. Claptrap will tell you when to shoot the explosives.

Finway’s Cup

After recruiting Zadra in the main story, the Finway’s Cup Side Mission will be available on the east coast of Hungering Plain.
“Dreams do come true! You’ve been telling yourself for years that you want to finish a triathlon. Now’s your chance!”

The Finway Cup is a triathlon-style race. You’ll start by swimming, then bike through blue gates, and finish with a run. On the bike, use your boosts whenever possible. For the final segment, grab the ball and throw it through the tire at the start/finish line.

Electroshock Therapy: The Second Session

After the first Electroshock Therapy Side Mission at Idolator’s Noose, we’re invited for a second one north of the Flarewell and east of Horace’s Oversight.

There is a settlement with Rippers nearby. Just run there, get their anger, and run back to the scientist. If you are playing with a companion, like a Siren with Trouble, you have to change to a solo action skill just for this part. Talk to Ambreleigh when done.
