In the expansive universe of The Outer Worlds 2, players embark on a quest known as The Saga of Malfunctioning Mechanicals, which requires navigating through early side quests to uncover the whereabouts of the elusive De Vries. One of the pivotal tasks involves sourcing replacement mech parts, a challenge that proves to be more intricate than it initially appears.
The Saga of Malfunctioning Mechanicals quest walkthrough
This quest intertwines with another, An Aegis Against The Miasma, adding layers of complexity. However, by concentrating solely on the search for replacement mech parts, players can streamline their efforts.
How to get the Ministry of Accuracy access pass
Before venturing to the Euphoria Automech Center, securing an access pass is essential. Without it, entry will be denied at the gate. Navigate to the designated location on your map, where you will encounter adversaries. After overcoming them and ascending through the base, locate a blue terminal to print your access pass, granting you entry to the automech parts.
How to get replacement mech parts
Upon entering the automech lab, your first interaction should be with Hazel at the shop. She will direct you to Delphinia, the mechanic, who is crucial to your quest. Hazel notes that the parts cannot be stored inside Delphinia’s lab, prompting further investigation.
Engaging with Delphinia will introduce you to the An Aegis Against The Miasma quest, where she mentions a nearby automech exhibiting peculiar behavior, hinting at a possible connection. However, initial investigations may yield little progress. Completing the An Aegis Against The Miasma quest not only aids in advancing The Saboteur of Paradise but also facilitates access to the Vox Relay in the main storyline, making it advisable to tackle it concurrently.
Eventually, Delphinia will inform you that the parts are located near her lab, but not within.
Automech parts location
The replacement automech parts can be found on the roof of Delphinia’s lab. Return to Hazel’s shop and look for a small staircase to the left, which leads to the upper area surrounding the base. Follow the path around to the left towards Delphinia’s lab, where you will discover a way to leap onto the roof. At the far end, the replacement mech parts await your retrieval.

With the parts in hand, your next destination is Vigilant Hogarth in Westport. Presenting him with the parts will earn you a Writ. This document can be presented to Lehman at the gates of the Vox Relay, potentially allowing you entry without engaging in combat. Additionally, completing the For Whom The Bridge Tolls side quest may be necessary to progress further.
