How to Complete the Primordial Vault: Carcadia Burn Quest

A murderous array stands ready for you, Vault Hunter. Can you beat the odds and triumph?

Move toward your end; it might sting a little

Take the orange jump pad and eliminate all nearby enemies.

Reach the place where no soul survives

After the fight, use the next orange launch pad to refuel at the station. Once ready, launch again to face another wave of enemies—defeat everything in your path!

Progress onward… the end lies ahead

Advance to the next trial and clear out the enemies. When most are defeated, The Chisel will appear. A purple barrier shields this enemy. Destroy the Vile Ordonite, a pink orb it fires, to break the shield and deal damage to The Chisel.

Cross the threshold to certain death

Once the battlefield is cleared, take the launch pad to a pit stop area with vending machines. Stock up, then prepare for the boss fight ahead.

During the fight, it will coat the ground with electricity. Make sure you are standing on one of the rocks in the area to avoid it or stay in the air by gliding long enough until it goes away.
