Why Cooling Fans matter

Part 2/6 (Wiring, Ventilation, Power) asks for 5 Cooling Fans and large stacks of wires and cloth. Fans are the rare piece, so targeted tech zones beat random scavenging.

Route overview: Space Travel Building (Buried City)

The Space Travel Building is the highest-signal Technological zone. Enter via the rooftop zipline, clear Floor 6 breachables, then work downward. Finish with the parking-garage extract beside the building.

Cooling Fan expedition requirements
Part 2 needs 5 Cooling Fans; the rest are bulk items you will collect passively.

Step 1: Reach Space Travel via rooftop zipline

Spawn in Buried City and head to the Galleria rooftop. A preset zipline carries you directly onto the Space Travel roof, bypassing street fights and getting you to the loot first.

Space Travel Building location
Use the Buried City map and sprint straight to Galleria - zipline - Space Travel roof.

Zipline end on Space Travel roof
Zipline lands you on Space Travel roof; drop inside immediately.

Step 2: Clear Floor 6, then move down

Enter from the roof; you will be on Floor 6. Two loot rooms and multiple breachable containers sit here. Open everything, then clear the next two floors below for shelves, tech crates, and boxes.

Two loot rooms on Floor 6 - hit both before dropping down.
Breachable tech container
Breachable containers share pools with Cooling Fans and other rare tech parts.
Another breachable container
Open every breachable on Floors 6-4 for 1-2 Cooling Fans per clean run.
Loot pool callout: Cooling Fans often drop alongside Damaged Heat Sinks, Advanced Electrical Components, and Fried Motherboards - grab them for later benches.

Step 3: Extract instantly at Parking Garage

The parking-garage extract sits right beside the Space Travel Building. Once you secure your Fans, exit immediately to keep runs short and repeatable.

Extract is seconds away - ideal for chaining multiple runs.

Fast loop script (3-5 minutes)

  • 1) Buried City spawn -> Galleria roof -> zipline to Space Travel.
  • 2) Clear Floor 6 breachables -> move down through 5 and 4 for shelves/tech crates.
  • 3) If contested, prioritize breachables, then extract at Parking Garage.
  • 4) Requeue and repeat until 5x Cooling Fans are secured.

Loadout and pacing tips

  • Bring close-range DPS (shotgun/SMG) for tight corridors; Space Travel draws other raiders.
  • Carry a breach tool; every breachable container is high value in this zone.
  • Go light on armor to sprint extracts; Fans and tech parts weigh little.
  • Duo split: one clears breachables on 6/5 while the other holds stairs and bags extra crates.

After you have 5

  • Finish Part 2 with your cloth, wires, and electrical components to advance Caravan progression.
  • Recycle surplus tech items per the loot page to keep stash space clear.
  • Revisit Space Travel later for Damaged Heat Sinks and Advanced Electrical Components needed for higher-tier benches.
