Belknap NERO Research Site 1
The first of two NERO research sites in Belknap, on a hilltop west of Hot Springs beside a crashed NERO helicopter. You need a bike jump to reach it, and it pays out a NERO Injector.
- Type
- Research site
- Region
- Belknap
Good to know
- It sits next to a crashed NERO helicopter, west of Hot Springs.
- A stock bike may fall short of the jump; fit Nitrous first.
- Each research site holds a NERO Injector; you pick a permanent boost to Health, Stamina or Focus.
- Each site also has a NERO Intel recorder.
- Ambush camp maps reveal sites; the intel at one site points toward the next.
- Sites are not missable and stay open after the story ends.
How to get there
You get there with a bike jump off a ramp. Fit Nitrous and the best engine you can afford, then hit the ramp at full speed with boost. Save first, because a short jump means a long fall.
What's there
A NERO Injector and an intel recorder. Pick the boost you are shortest on: Health if you die to Hordes, Stamina for riding out fights, Focus for slow-mo aiming. NERO checkpoints hold injectors too, so check both on your map.
