WHERE & HOW TO FARM Where to farm Research and Development, in the area where Torques and Badass Torques appear.
This route targets the Bonus Package grenade mod from Torques and Badass Torques in Research and Development. It fits naturally into the map’s broader loot pass, which also includes containers and other named enemies. The grenade mod is a chance drop, so inspect both fights and collect useful route loot instead of assuming a single run will finish the hunt.
Before you go Reach Research and Development. Bring weapons suited to the enemies in the area and enough ammunition for the route. Keep inventory room for grenade mods and other potential upgrades. Enter Research and Development and follow the route toward the Torque encounters. Engage Torques and Badass Torques as they appear. Defeat each enemy and examine the drops for the Bonus Package grenade mod. Compare any grenade mod with your current setup before replacing it. Loot nearby red chests and lockers as you continue through the map. After completing the route, leave the map and save and quit to reset it. Reload and repeat the Torque checks if the target is still useful to your build. Farming tips Inspect drops after both enemy fights; the target is associated with the Torques encounters, but is not guaranteed. Use the full route when you also want general loot, then prioritize the target enemies on later visits. Repeat, collect and use Repeatable after resetting the map. The Bonus Package is a chance drop, and each route can also yield other gear.
Common mistakes Treating the Bonus Package as guaranteed can make the farm feel misleading; judge progress by actual drops. Skipping the second named encounter reduces your chances to check the route; clear both Torques and Badass Torques. Replacing a working grenade mod without comparing effects can hurt your build; inspect item stats and behavior. When to stop or switch Stop when you find a Bonus Package that works for your character or when your grenade slot is already adequately equipped.
