In the post-apocalyptic world of *Atomfall*, certain items you stumble upon during your travels can be game-changers. One such pivotal item is the Signal Redirector, and obtaining it is a challenging endeavor. If you're struggling to locate it, this guide will walk you through the process of getting the Signal Redirector in *Atomfall*.
Where to Find Signal Redirector in Atomfall
The Signal Redirector is a unique tool in *Atomfall* that you can't simply purchase from a trader or loot from a fallen enemy, unlike the Metal Detector. It's found in a specific location tied to a key character, Dr. Diane Garrow, a former B.A.R.D scientist.
Your journey begins by picking up a lead from Wyndham Village on Dr. Garrow's whereabouts. From there, you must venture to rescue her from the depths of the Protocol prison camp in Skethermoor. Reaching this location is fraught with danger due to the heavy presence of Protocol soldiers. To ease your infiltration, consider meeting Captain Grant Sims in Wyndham Village. Assisting him with tasks like retrieving stolen items can earn you favor with Protocol, at least temporarily.
Once prepared, head to the Protocol prison camp situated on the southernmost border of Skethermoor. The entrance to the underground prison is at the end of the southern road, marked by a large green door.
Navigating the prison involves traversing multiple levels while evading or neutralizing guards and robots. Remember, you can disable B.A.R.D robots to collect their **Atomic Batteries**, which are essential for The Interchange.
Proceed to the deepest level of the prison, past the dig site area, where you'll find Dr. Garrow locked in a cell in the main room. To free her, you'll need the Signal Redirector, which is stored on a shelf in the nearby Storage room. Upon retrieving it, you'll unlock the **'Reverse the Polarity' trophy/achievement**.
How to Use Signal Redirector in Atomfall
The Signal Redirector, crafted by Dr. Garrow, serves as a hacking tool that reroutes power within yellow junction boxes to different sources. This capability is crucial for disabling security systems and unlocking restricted areas.
Similar to the Metal Detector, the Signal Redirector will signal you with an icon at the bottom of your screen when a hackable junction box is nearby. Follow the device's needle to locate the box, which will be highlighted when you're close enough. Use the 'Hack' button to reroute the power, and if necessary, you can reverse it by hacking the junction box again.
Utilizing the Signal Redirector will enable you to free Dr. Garrow from her cell, allowing you to continue her storyline.
