What to know
- Hack two exterior data repositories, one in North Relay and one in South Relay, as marked on the in-game map.
- Proceed to the second floor of the hauler to download the AI maintenance protocol after hacking both repositories.
- Extract safely from the map to finish the quest, or repeat all subtasks if extraction fails.
- Additional repositories may exist in these locations for faster completion.
This Marathon quest requires precise navigation through North Relay and South Relay to hack exterior data repositories. Completing all subtasks in one continuous run ensures progress without restarts. Focus on the marked spots on the map, then head directly to the hauler for the protocol pickup before exfiltrating.

Exterior data repositories in relay areas
North Relay and South Relay host the exterior data repositories needed for this quest.
Spot these on the map and interact with them directly.
Hack both in sequence during the same run to advance.
Reaching the hauler second floor
After hacking the repositories, navigate to the hauler structure.
Climb to the second floor following the most direct path available.
The AI maintenance protocol awaits download right there.
Safe extraction process
Once the protocol downloads, prioritize a safe exfil point. Any failure to extract properly resets the entire sequence of hacks and download. Plan your route to avoid interruptions.
