Investigate the red object

Rise among the ranks of the Brotherhood of Steel.

Now I have to scout out Navarro and investigate a "suspicious red device".

When you enter Navarro, you're at a service station. Talk with old Chris there. No spoilers. Just figure it out.

If you took this quest at the San Francisco BoS location, go back and report to Paladin Windsted to complete it. He will direct you to talk with the quartermaster for your next assignment.

Hint
Solving this little mystery of the red object is easier than you might expect. If the enclave guards are killing you, you're trying too hard. Pay attention to dialogue when you first get this quest; you are told exactly where to go to find the red object.

Reward

• 750 xp
• Improved reputation with BoS: +500 points
• An explanation of the BoS Faction Points system, whereby you can get gear and blueprints
• A fresh black leather jacket
• A weapon based on your responses in dialogue with the quartermaster
