Background
Edit
After automatically becoming an employee of Jakobs Corporation in Dead Haven, you are given the chance to buy equipment from a Jakobs-branded Vending Machine. According to the PA system on Jakobs Cove, as an employee it is an obligation to use Jakobs branded equipment ("If it ain't a Jakobs, I'd rather be dead")
Walkthrough
Edit
Objective
Edit
- Find a power coupling and repair the Jakobs vending machine.
- Power coupling: 0/1
- Coupling installed: 0/1
- "To anyone attempting to survive in Jakobs Cove: This is a Jakobs company vending machine in town that could help you deal with Dr. Ned. It may need a new power coupling, but if you're able to repair the machine, you can gain access to its inventory - something which could help you survive. Remember, if it just needs to be dead, it needs to be Jakobs. These zombies need to be dead."
Strategy
Edit
- Head out the south gate there will see a rowboat at the waypoint. Grab the Power coupling and return to town. Locate the Jakobs Vending Machine. Insert the coupling.
Completion
Edit
- " Excellent work. If you survive, you should consider applying to Jakobs as a maintenance engineer. "
Additional Information
Edit
Notes
Edit
- Once you insert the coupling, the machine is active and ready to be used.
- When you turn off the game system the machine is no longer active. And may not be reactivated. Timer does reset as a normal machine as long as you do not turn your game system off.
- It also becomes unusable when leaving the main map (Jakobs cove main town, even though staying in the DLC areas) for a (long) period of time. It is usable again after completing (certain) missions at the bounty board. (Without quitting the game.)[citation needed]
- Power Coupling: "A stolen power coupling for the Jakobs vendor." As it is found next to the corpse of a bandit, it would seem that the said bandit was its thief but was killed before he could get away.
- Even though it is supposed to be a Jakobs vending machine, it often will not have a single Jakobs weapon available.
Trivia
Edit
- This vending machine is the only Jakobs branded vending machine on Pandora.
