WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Target Sledge for a specific weapon drop
Headstone Mine, Rust Commons West. Sledge is at the end of the mine.
Before you go
- Reach Headstone Mine in the main campaign.
- Bring a reliable combat loadout and enough ammunition for the mine.
- Make room in your inventory for a shotgun or other useful drops.
Farming steps
- Travel to Headstone Mine and enter the area.
- Fight through the mine toward its far end, clearing enemies that block the route.
- Engage Sledge and keep attacking until he is defeated.
- Inspect the drops for Sledge’s Shotgun and compare it with your current weapons.
- Pick up the shotgun if it appears and suits your build; collect other useful items as space allows.
- If you want another roll, save and quit after the encounter, then continue the character.
- Return to Headstone Mine and repeat the route to reach Sledge again.
- Compare the shotgun’s level and performance with your current weapon before deciding to keep it.
- Sell or store unwanted gear before another run so a good roll has space.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeatable by saving and quitting after the boss encounter, then returning to Headstone Mine. Sledge’s Shotgun is a targeted drop, not a guaranteed result on every kill.
Common mistakes
- Searching the wrong zone: Sledge is at Headstone Mine’s end, not a separate loot chest location.
- Assuming every kill drops the shotgun: check the pool and repeat only if another roll is worthwhile.
- Entering with a full inventory: make room before the fight so you can collect the target.
When to stop or switch
Stop when you obtain a shotgun that meets your needs or when repeated runs are no longer improving your loadout. Continue the campaign if a higher-level weapon would soon replace it.
