Chapter 8 - Heartman | Death Stranding Walkthrough Death Stranding guide, walkthrough
Last update: 13 November 2019
The eighth Chapter of Death Stranding will begin after you have completed the Order no. 55 - Corpse Delivery: Heartman's Lab. Before you start this mission, it would be wise to complete all tasks available in that part of the map.
On this page of our guide to Death Stranding we have described all orders and tasks available in the eight chapter of the game. In addition, you will also get information about the opponents you have to fight with in this chapter of the game.
Let's start with the fact that in the beginning of chapter eight you won't have any new mission available. For two minutes, you have to look around Heartman's room for valuable information. For every piece of information you receive, you will get a reward in the form of likes. A cut-scene will be displayed. Once it ends, a new order will be available.
- [Order No.58] Anti-chiralium medication Delicery: Geologist
- [Order No.59] Antimatter Bomb Delivery: Paleontologist
- [Order No.60] Recovery: Ammonites
- [Order No.61] Tar Extraction Device & Ammoite Delivery: Evo-devo Biologist
- [Order No.62] Repair: Chiral Relay
[Order No.58] Anti-chiralium medication Delicery: Geologist
Where the mission begins: Heartman's Lab.
Rewards: A new location.
This task is best undertaken on foot. Also, it's advisable to wear an exoskeleton that enhances your balance capabilities or climbing skills. This area is not dangerous, but it will be difficult to cross it without any support.
If you penetrate through the snowdrifts, you will reach the location and therefore be able to complete the task.
[Order No.59] Antimatter Bomb Delivery: Paleontologist
Where the mission begins: Heartman's Lab.
Rewards: a new location, grenades, Oxygen Mask.
Your job is to deliver the bomb to the Paleontologist. Remember that this is a charge that is very delicate and you cannot expose it to any sort of turbulence.
If your cargo takes too much damage, e.g. from falls, mountain bumps or if it gets wet, it may explode. Therefore, the task won't be completed.
Riding in the mountains is very dangerous. So, try to move the cargo on your back. Avoid jumps and falls. Move between stones.
[Order No.60] Recovery: Ammonites
Where the mission begins: paleontologist.
Rewards: a new location, grenades, Oxygen Mask.
You will need an oxygen mask to complete this task. Remove it from the inventory and put it on hero's face.
With the mask on, travel to the canyon where you will find parcels with ammonites. Collect them and go back to the paleontologist.
[Order No.61] Tar Extraction Device & Ammoite Delivery: Evo-devo Biologist
Where the mission begins: paleontologist.
Rewards: a new location, grenade launcher.
The first part of your task consists in finding parcels containing raw materials. They are located near your location, between the mountains.
A lot of BTs wander around in this spot. The best thing to do is to shoot at them and scare them away so you may avoid a direct battle.
Once you have the equipment, go to a new location and give the parcels back to the woman. This will complete the mission.
[Order No.62] Repair: Chiral Relay
Where the mission begins: Heartman's Lab.
Rewards: A new location.
This mission is about reaching a location delivering materials. The best way to reach the destination is to use a motorcycle. Thanks to the vehicle, you will go through the mountains with greater ease.
After delivering the cargo, you will have to get to the other side of the river. You can't do it the traditional way, though. If you enter the water, the stream will move you immediately - this means imminent death.
The best way to accomplish this task is to surrender to the opponents and use the moment when they attack. Then, the water will be covered by tar. After that, buildings will emerge from it. Jump from one building to another to continue the plot.
We have described this part of the mission in detail in the Puzzles chapter. Check How to get through the tar tank page to get all the details.
