Objectives
1
Search North of Landfall for the Quen Scouts

After arriving on the beach, there will be a prompt to approach the corpses on the beach. Be careful however, as there will be 5 nearby enemies (2 Spikesnouts and 3 Burrowers) at the ruin on the same beach. Defeat them first before proceeding to examine the 2 spots where the corpses are, as shown in the picture above.
3
Scan for Tracks and Follow the Tracks

After examining the corpses, players will need to examine and follow the tracks on the beach. Players will be able to find the footprints where the tracks are right beside the location of the two corpses. Scan and follow them to the next objective.
4
Climb up the Tower

The tracks will lead Aloy deeper into the jungle right into a tower. Players will need to use the climbable points to head up. Be careful, as there will immediately be a Sunwing right outside the tower, so avoid falling off to steer clear of initiating a fight.
5
Examine the Corpse

Once players reach the top of the tower through the climbable points outside, jump inside to find the corpse. Examine it to progress the quest to the final objective..
6
Return to Jomar

To return to Jomar fast, players can use their Sunwing to get back to Legacy's Landfall. Make sure to get some distance between Aloy and the tower before calling the Sunwing to avoid alerting the enemies. Speak to Jomar to finish the quest and receive the Elite Canister Ropecaster.

Tips and Strategies

Prepare to Fight Enemies before Heading to the Beach

Prepare to Fight the Apex Spikesnout
After speaking to Jomar and then getting the objective to examine the corpse on the beach be prepared to fight two Apex Spikesnouts and three Burrowers at the beach.

Use the Glide to Avoid Falling Too Far

Use the Glide Function to Avoid Falling too Far

When climbing up the tower, use the glide function if you're unsure of jumping to the next climbable point. It will help you land on a nearby ledge instead of starting over at the bottom of the tower.
