The Guns of Reliance Walkthrough

Meet Clay at Reliance

Wainwright needs help to taking down Aurelia, so make your way down to the Reliance and speak with Clay.

Talk to Clay

Talk to Clay by the gate, outside the area.

Follow Clay

Entering through the front gate isn’t a very good idea, follow Clay to the left of the gate to find another way inside.

Kill the COV Enemies

Once you’re inside, show Clay what you can do by taking out the group of COV below.

Follow Clay

Follow Clay to the nearby weapons shed and help free his friends while he attempts to hack the shed console.

Kill the COV Guarding the Cages

Use your onscreen markers to kill the COV guarding cages that are holding Clay’s friends hostage.

Free Rebel Kyle

Free Rebel Kyle by taking out the COV guarding the South-East cage. To free Kyle from the cage, shoot the panel next to the gate.

Free Rebel Jon Ryan

Free Rebel Jon Ryan by taking out the COV guarding the Southern cage. Much like freeing Kyle, shoot the panel to open the gate.

Talk to Clay

Now that the Rebel’s are free, talk to Clay at the weapons shed.

Shoot the Door Control Box

With the door still jammed, shoot the control box to open the door to the shed.

Follow Clay

Follow Clay inside and you will quickly notice that the main weapons chest can not be opened without the help of the Gunsmith.

Kill the COV Attackers

COV will begin to appear, take them out.

Fall back to the Gas Station

After the wave of COV has been defeated, follow Clay and fall back to the gas station and regroup.

More COV will begin to enter the area, take them out and repeat the process.
