How to Locate the Stillsands Tallneck
Using Your Focus
Tallnecks can be found using your Focus. They appear as a pulsing purple dot. For the Stillsands Tallneck in particular, you can simply follow the icon on your map.
These can be especially helpful when visibility is low due to the storms in this area!

Overriding the Stillsands Tallneck
Examine the Area
Once you've found the camp of the Oseram group, examine the machine carcass, datapoint, and tallneck components to determine that happened to the group!
Use the Ballistas to Anchor the Tallneck
There are 3 Ballista in total so you'll need to move around the camp to use them. Head to the closest one and get ready to fight some machines! Don't worry though as the enemies will be staggered in 3 batches
They'll be quite easy to take out. Once they're down, use the Ballista to aim for the weak points on the Tallneck. These points can be seen with your Focus and will be highlighted in blue!
Climb onto the Tallneck
Once the Tallneck is anchored and on the ground, head down to it's head. There's no need for much jumping here.
Override it and the Tallneck will stand once more, resuming it's route around the camp.
Note that if you haven't killed the Acid Bellowback, you may have some issues trying to override the Tallneck. Dispatch it quickly to make the job easier!
