Objectives:
1	Meeteth with Elijah the Wise After accepting the mission from the Missions app, make your way toward the objective marker at Monte Vista. Approaching the marker will instantly transport you to the Lookout with Eli and Neenah.
2	Confer with the Council Approach Eli and Neenah to receive a briefing for the mission ahead. Elijah the Wise talks about the Bowelrod, the "greatest weapon in all the realms," which you need to defeat Gwendolyn Firebird.
3	Travel to the Bowelrod's Lair To obtain the Bowelrod, make your way to its Lair in the Badlands. Talk to the Keeper, who will provide you with the incomplete Bowelrod as its parts have been taken away by House Phoenix.
4	Travel to Fort Phoenix Ride the incomplete Bowelrod toward Fort Phoenix, which contains the Bowelrod parts you need. Park near the gates and "stealth" your way inside.
5	Stealth Kill Thine Enemies Clear out the compound by performing "stealth kills" on each of the guards. Make sure not to get seen by any other guard as you take down each of them one by one. After successfully clearing out the compound unseen, open the chest near the back to get the first Bowelrod piece.
6	Storm the Warehouse Meet up with Elijah and Neenifer at the warehouse and defeat all of the Phoenix guards around the area. Open the chest inside the warehouse to get the second Bowelrod piece and a Dustlander Shotgun.
7	Journey to the Peak of Fort Phoenix Journey towards the top of Fort Phoenix to get the final piece of the Bowelrod. There will be plenty of Phoenix soldiers that block the way upward, so gun all of them down with your faux weapons as you move toward the top. Open the chest at the end of the path to get the last Bowelrod piece.
8	Wingsuit-eth to the Warehouse After getting the last missing piece of the Bowelrod, Elijah will stay behind as you wingsuit down toward the warehouse. Give Neenifer the final piece so she can begin conjuring the Bowelrod.
9	Protect Neenifer While Neenifer performs the ritual to bring the Bowelrod back to life, defend her from the assaulting House Phoenix members. There will be four waves of enemies in total, so prepare to gun each of them down one by one.
10	Rescue Elijah the Wise Ride the resurrected Bowelrod towards Elijah to rescue him from House Phoenix. Use the Bowelrod's Roar to take down the horde of soldiers that surround Elijah. Finishing this step completes the mission.

Tips and Strategies

Conserve Ammo with Headshots

This mission has several sections which have you gunning down multiple waves of Phoenix soldiers, including Tough variants. To help conserve ammo, prioritize landing headshots with the Dustlander Revolver and the Dustlander Crossbow.

Aim for the Body with the Dustlander Shotgun

Clearing out the warehouse and opening the chest inside will also provide you with the powerful Dustlander Shotgun. Aim for the body to make sure every pellet hits, and you can take down most enemies within two shots.
