The sheriff comes by to stop the bar fight, and then he walks with you to the city center. Where the Obsidian stone lays, you get attacked by a gang of enemies, and you have to defeat them to progress. From there-on it’s just fight after fight until the end of the mission where a cut scene plays-out

Spoiler: Rose makes a return dueling the sheriff, she wins, then she and her gang steal the Obsidian stone in the center and your left to revive the sheriff, however, you are unable to. You pick up his badge to finish up the mission and progress.

It’s a Wash Complete mission “The Name of the Law”.

You are introduced to Juno, who gives you a syringe that allows you to use Breezer’s (Basically a launchpad from the pre-sequel) You and Juno go searching for Titus. Another new character. You have to travel to a new part of the map (The Blastplains) This is a very large and open area, Just head to the mission marker on your map, while collecting any side mission that may pop-up. You’ll progress to yet another map. Ashfall Peaks, from there you go move through a more linear path to a small hideout to rescue Titus. You’ll have to take out waves of enemies, once you arrived. Afterward, you’re introduced to a new mechanic, Coresploders. Hit a coresploder and it will travel in the direction of the hit and deal massive damage to enemies but also destroy specific walls.

You will keep moving through the map towards the huge hideout the devil riders have.

Spoiler: Once there, you’ll use different methods to destroy the hideout and eventually gather the attention of one of the leaders, Kormash. Kill him and collect his key to this secret room. You also save a prisoner named Wanderer, who explains that the Obsidian stone is actually an egg, for a beast called “The Ruiner”

Getting Off Track Complete mission “Off the Rails”.

This is the 3rd mission of the DLC. After heading back to vestige you explain Roes’s plans to Juno when the town gets attacked by the Devil riders. After taking out waves of enemies you head through The Blastplains yet again except this time you’re going to a new location “The Obsidian Forest” You meet a woman named Oletta. She’s going to help you stop Rose.

Ruin on the Horizon Complete mission “Riding to Ruin”.

This is the fifth mission of the DLC. After talking with Juno, it’s time to finish this once and for all. You protect the town yet-again from Devil-riders before making your way to The Blastplains were you pursue Roes to the Crate Edge, a new location, and the final one for this DLC.

Buggy warning:

“Riding to Ruin” is buggy. If you started following the posse, but then wandered off, only to catch up with them later at the gate, they might get stuck in an endless loop of conversation, and you’ll be unable to complete the mission. If you start “Riding to Ruin” make sure to follow through with only the quest and it should complete properly.

Buggy warning 2:

There is a bug that For whatever reason won’t allow you spawn into a vehicle on Gehenna which while annoying early on also, game-breaking due to the fact that you’ll be unable to proceed with this mission because you cannot spawn a vehicle. People have tried Hi-jacking enemy vehicle to no successes, it’ll only give you a prompt for unlocking new parts but won’t put you in the vehicle.

Spoiler: After reaching Roes, she feels unstoppable and fights you. This isn’t a difficult boss fight. Once her health reaches zero, a cut-scene plays and she calls upon The Ruiner to save her. The Ruiner has many large green crystals on it’s back, that’s where you want to shoot, to deal the most damage. There are Telezappers to help you dodge attacks if needed. Once The Ruiner is dead, head back to town to collect your reward. After that, the mission is complete and you’ve successfully finished the DLC.

Bounty: Hunted Complete mission “Where It All Started”.

This is the fourth mission of the DLC. After meeting with Juno, it’s time to take Rose head-on. You’ll get a new device (The Telezapper) Which allows you to teleport between different Telezappers.

Spoiler: You make your way through a facility filled with guards. You have to stop the launch of firepower that’ll be used to help hatch The Ruiner. Near the end, there will be a mini-boss fight with Quartermaster and Oaken Wolf. You are unable to stop the launch and now Rose almost has the Ruiner hatched.
