Hazard a Gas Quest Guide
How to Start the Hazard a Gas Collectible Quest
To begin the Hazard a Gas collectible quest, you’ll need to speak with Sr. Contract Medicallist Cormier at Outpost Opportunity on Dorado’s Golden Ridge. Offer to help her out with her issue to get more information on what’s going on.
She’ll tell you that they need compression coils for their AutoDocs. Due to the recent attack, a lot of people were poisoned by zyranium, and it’s more than the mechs can handle. Then mention that Auntie dropped extra compression coils in pods from orbit, but they landed everywhere. They have the coils that you’ll need to find.

If you speak with Intelligence Technicist Dosia in the green tower at Fort Endurance, you can pay him to reveal the location of some AutoDoc Compression Coils.
