Unlock Industrial Sabotage through Spec Ops

Completing Spec Ops: Industrial Sabotage opens the Industrial Sabotage mission type for future runs.

PC / Global, current base game through Season 6
WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Assignment Board on the Space Rig; start the marked Spec Ops mission from the Mission Terminal.

Spec Ops: Industrial Sabotage is a one-mission assignment that unlocks Industrial Sabotage. It is a progression gate, not a repeatable boss-reward farm: completing it makes the mission type available, while repeating the assignment does not establish an additional unlock payout. Accept it from the Assignment Board after completing Conquering Hoxxes IV, then launch the marked mission and finish its objective. After successful completion, use the Mission Terminal to select Industrial Sabotage when you want to play that mission type. The assignment route and unlock are distinct from farming rewards by repeatedly fighting the Caretaker in later missions.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Complete the Conquering Hoxxes IV assignment.
  • Have access to the Assignment Board and an available assignment slot.
  • Be prepared to complete the single listed mission and extract successfully.
  1. Open the Assignment Board and accept Spec Ops: Industrial Sabotage when available.
  2. Read the assignment step and locate its marked mission node.
  3. Select that marked node at the Mission Terminal.
  4. Complete the mission’s primary objective and extract successfully.
  5. Return to the Assignment Board and verify the assignment is complete.
  6. Open the Mission Terminal and confirm Industrial Sabotage is available among mission choices.
  7. Select Industrial Sabotage for a later run if you want to continue with that mission type.

Farming tips

  • The marked node matters even though this assignment has only one step; an unrelated mission will not grant the unlock.
  • Finish the assignment before planning a later Industrial Sabotage run, since the mission type is gated by its completion.

Repeat, collect and use

One-time unlock assignment. Complete it once to open Industrial Sabotage; no repeatable assignment payout is established.

Common mistakes

  • Looking for the mission type before completing Conquering Hoxxes IV may hide the assignment; finish the prerequisite first.
  • Playing an unmarked mission will not count toward Spec Ops; launch the assignment node.
  • Assuming the unlock itself grants a repeatable reward can lead to unnecessary replay; use the newly available mission type for subsequent runs.

When to stop or switch

Stop after the assignment is recorded complete and Industrial Sabotage appears at the Mission Terminal. Choose another mission or launch Industrial Sabotage as your next objective.
