How to Start Fusing Fractured Forces in Outer Worlds 2
To Start Fusing Fractures in Outer Worlds 2, on the planet Cloister, you'll have to head over to Winter's Grasp. At the entrance, a small bunker will be located on the left. Go inside and you'll be able to see Associate Field Manager Huguenard. Speak with him, and he'll ask you if you're there to help him win the war. You can choose any of the dialogue to progress. He'll then tell you that his forces are in a bind against the Protectorate. He'll then ask you to reconnect the territories they occupy near Newton.
Additionally, you can also acquire the quest The Case of the Mystery Rations from Associate Field Manager Huguenard by choosing the dialogue:
- Fine. Have any other tasks that need doing?
This can be chosen after Manager Huguenard explains the situation in the occupied territories.


Clear the Protectorate Camp in Fusing Fractured Forces
The Protectorate camp is located west of Newton. You can reach the camps from multiple areas, but for our playthrough, we started at the Excogitation Chapel on the eastern portion of Cloister. Once you're there, you'll have to liberate the forces from the Protectorate. It's best to come prepared, as there are various Protectorate enemies, such as Protectorate Wasps MK III, Protectorate Dragoons MK III, and a few Protectorate Selectees, Interceders, and Upholders lurking in the camp sites. Once you're done, you can loot for resources and head to the next camp.


While there aren't many notable items to loot or pick up in between camps, there is, however, an Advanced Decryption Key inside a trailer on the southmost camp. You can find the trailer next to a slope you can climb on.

Return to Associate Field Manager Huguenard
Once you've cleared all three camps, head back to Winter's Grasp and report to Associate Field Manager Huguenard. Tell him that the territory now extends from here to below the bridge. He'll thank you for your troubles and rewards you with +1620XP, +1 Reputation with Auntie's Choice, Recipe: Heavy Marksman Rifle Advanced Mag, x650 Bit Cartridge, and an Advanced Decryption Key.
