How to Unlock Timid Kyle's Neglected Opening

Complete the Shadow of the Mountain Main Mission

Abandoned Auger Mine Unlock Condition

Timid Kyle's Neglected Opening, along with other Abandoned Auger Mines, becomes accessible after completing the Shadow of the Mountain Main Mission. You'll be able to complete this mission at around level 18–20, following the fourth Main Mission, A Lot to Process.

Red Seal and Clave-Locked Notice in the Early Game

Red Seal and Clave-Locked

You may discover Timid Kyle's Neglected Opening well before you're able to unlock it. If you happen to find it early, you'll encounter a red seal with a “???” interaction and receive a Clave-Locked notice stating to “find your clave and earn your name.”

Timid Kyle's Neglected Opening Location

Near a Shallow Pond in the Coastal Bonescape

This Auger Mine is located north of the Abandoned Outpost Safehouse, near a shallow pond with a large cave entrance. The ? map pin marking the mine is misleading as the actual entrance lies just south of the pin, at the pond. Approach from the south to access Timid Kyle's Neglected Opening.

Timid Kyle's Neglected Opening Rewards

40 SDU and Epic Loot After Defeating the Boss

At the end of this Auger Mine, you'll face the unique boss: Voraxis. Defeating Voraxis rewards you with 40 SDU and a variety of powerful gear.
