Part of
Found in
BelknapBelknap is the volcanic region south of the Cascade, home to Ada Tucker's Hot Springs camp and the town of Marion Forks. You come here early for Tucker's work and stay for its seven Hordes and three infestations.
Marion ForksMarion Forks is an abandoned riverside town in Belknap, split by a blown bridge. It has a church, two motels and a NERO burial pit above it. It matters to Deacon, and it holds an infestation, a Horde and good early loot.
Good to know
- It has 5 nests to burn.
- Clearing it gives 1,500 XP.
- It earns 750 Trust and 1,200 credits at Hot Springs.
- It is part of Infestation Exterminator.
- The Marion Forks Tunnel NERO Checkpoint is just east of town.
- Deacon and Sarah used to eat at Hungry Jim's in town.
How to clear it
Burn each nest with a Molotov or other fire, throwing from a distance with an exit open. Burning a nest draws the Freakers around it, and daylight means fewer of them are out. The broken bridge splits the town, so plan which bank to clear first.
Why bother
Until the nests are gone, fast travel through this area stays blocked. Once it's clear, the Old Wagon Hotel's locked rooms are an easy loot run.
Watch out
The Marion Forks Horde of 50 Swarmers lives near town. Finish the nests before dusk.
