The Surge Achievement Guide image 99

Video guide by Admiral Vic, he shows you where to find Davey and his "medcine"

The Surge Achievement Guide image 106

Defeated the guard at the NUCLEUS elevator.

This is located in the Excutive Forum, These guys are passive, so bait them out.

Melting Down


The Surge Achievement Guide image 110

Defeated all five smelting machines.

Smelting machines can be found;

The first Smelting Machine can be found in Abandoned Production near the large concrete pipes tucked away in the corner.

Inside the large recycling room in Central Planning B (where you need to activate the bridge), you will find two Smelting Machines. Defeating each machine gives you a Shining Coin.

When you make it to the outside of the Resolve Biolabs, you’ll see the Smelter Machine (it’s pretty hard to miss). This Smelter Machine is surrounded by acid, which makes the fight a bit of a pain.

The final Smelter can be found progressing past Bio Labs, you will return to Central Processing B, And in the first room you will find the last smelter (cooling towers)

Now that we have 5 Shining Coins, we need to spend them. To do this, return to Central Planning B and enter the Conveyor Hub area. Look for the door with ‘GOD’ spray painted above it. Inside this room are a number of enemies around a vending machine. Dispatch all the enemies. With the enemies gone, drop the 5 Shining Coins into the machine and activate the console that appears.

Duty-Bound


The Surge Achievement Guide image 119

Accompanied a lost soul on her quest to find herself.

Side quest involving Irina Beckett. She can be first found by the two security guards in central station for the achievement "Most Wanted". She'll ask for a better staff, easiest way to get this is to kill the security guards near by and chop their weapon arm off. This will suit her.

The second time you encounter her is in the circulation building on one of the top floors. This one is hard to miss as progression requires you to go by her, though you have to have talked to her and given her a staff in order for her to make it here. Simply talk to her and exhaust all options and she'll move on.

The third and most expensive time to meet her will be after having security spread out through the facility and coming back from R&D. She'll be on the path from the first OPS location and the security door, by the Toxic Waste Elevator. She'll now require you to give her the 3 missing Gorgon pieces to complete her security uniform. These are the same armor the security guards will have so simply cut off the head, body and legs and build these parts. She already has the arms so you don't need to get these. After giving her the rest of the Gorgon armor of any upgraded value, you'll be good.

The last time you meet her will be in the Executive forum, on the way up to the board room. Just before reaching the top floor you'll find a staircase after a vent shaft and a room straight across. Go into this room and you'll find a shortcut back to the lower floor of executive forum and Irina. She'll try to tell you to leave her alone but after exhausting her dialogue she'll turn hostile. Not attacking at first but on guard and targetable. Simply kill her for the achievement, cutting off her weapon arm will net the Peacekeeper staff and interesting dialogue should you return it to her in NG+.

Repeat Customer


The Surge Achievement Guide image 126

Gave Jo Tech Scrap three times.

Easy to miss achievement despite easy to find locations. Upon entering the toxic waste portion of the main facility you'll hear Jo talking to you. She's located in the pipe on the right as soon as walking in. She'll ask for 5,000 scrap the first time. This has to be done before killing Firebug.

The second time you'll encounter Jo will be right before the Big Sister fight in one of the pipes in the Builder Service Access before going up the exo lift. She'll need 10,000 scraps. This has to be done before killing Big Sister.

The third time you'll encounter her will be in the R&D zone at the top floor after finding the first aid station in the Exhibition Hall. She'll need 15,000 scrap. Do this before leaving the R&D department after talking to Barrett.
