Greater Firepower is the second questline of Chapter 10: Counterattack. It consists of four quests, starting with Beating Heart.

Description
“A lull in enemy attacks provides an opportunity. Activate the power plant to restore power.”

How to Activate the Power Plant

After freeing Gorth from the Clockwork Insects, the area still has no power. The Krall Foundry at the top of the hill is the next destination.

Access to the Krall Foundry building is from the roadside. Enter the dark room with only a bright beam lighting up the foundry generator. Everything is happening within this beam cone.

First, pull the long, horizontal lever to the left to start up the gas. Then, look for a square metal plate at the bottom right. Focus on it with the lantern to unlock the “kick” option for the metal plate. Do so, and the ignition handle will be released. Pull the handle to start up the Power Plant.

Hint:
Before doing so, turn around and have a look at the top of the room. There is a crawlspace leading to a treasure chest.

Speak with Valgash

After the cutscene, follow Valgash up to the top of the foundry’s staircase to complete the quest.

Description:
“A swarm of clockwork insects approaches the reactivated power plant. Protect the plant until the charging process is complete.”

Fend off the Swarm of Clockwork Insects

With new insects approaching the Krall Foundry, you will need a new A.T.A.G. to fight them off. Conveniently, there is an A.T.A.G. hangar just a few steps away where you and Valgash stood at the end of the previous quest. Pull the hangar’s handle to get access to the A.T.A.G. and mount it. Remember: You can always get a new one when yours is destroyed.

The Turbine has a health bar, like a boss in a boss fight would have. If the health bar goes down to zero before the time runs out, the quest is a failure.

Here’s how to fight with the A.T.A.G.:
When you see flying insects approaching, use your EMP to get rid of them at once. There are also mines hanging on balloons. Use cannonball for those.

Shoot down 2x Sky Galleon

Mount the massive cannon Vargash points out to you and shoot two zeppelins out of the sky. The controls are to the left.

Description
“Find the strange glowing object that fell from the sky galleon and crashed into the center of Gorthak.”

Find the Object that Fell From the Sky

The combination of “something fell out of the airship” and the quest’s title, “Frozen Hearted Predator,” makes me think of trouble. Could there be a boss fight coming? Before heading out, consider summoning your pet to help you pick up all the loot from the attack on the foundry. The clockwork creatures also drop Mercury, which is a great metal to have.

The item dropped down in the north, just outside the warzone circle on the map. Marni’s Clockwork Mantis Boss fight awaits! Defeating it will liberate the region.

Description
“It sppears the assault has ended with the defeat of the clockwork mantis. Find and speak with Valgash.”

Speak with Valgash

Valgash is still at the Krall Foundry. Speak to him and follow him on horseback, where he tells you about Marni. Valgash will lead you to the southeastern Snaketail Wall, where Marek already waits.

Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
