10: Searchlights | Side quests - The Slums Dying Light Guide

How to unlock: Talk to Alfie in the Tower lobby (Tower on the map).

Difficulty level: medium

Reward: 5000 experience

You can use the balconies on the side and stop every few steps or run across the whole bridge.

You can start this mission after some time from completing the Voltage side quest. Talk to Alfie again in the Tower lobby. This time, you will receive a task to reach the searchlights attached to a broken bridge (number 15 on the map) to take the light bulbs. The task is quite difficult, because you have to acquire the bulbs after dusk. However, don't go there too late, because you may not be able to reach the bridge before the morning. When going towards the searchlights, you can use the side balconies to hide from the Volatiles and other infected, but if you're not afraid to risk, you can run straight across the bridge and ignore the monsters chasing you (you can slow them down with UV Flashlight and traps). If you've chosen this variant, try to use the Vault skill to bounce from normal infected.

No matter of which way you choose, reach the lighten up area, located right below the bulbs. Good news is that Volatiles cannot get you here. Nevertheless, stand on the roof of the van and plan your next move from there. Face the southern pillar of the bridge and start climbing in the place shown in the picture above. You have to jump from one edge to another and catch them. It will allow you to reach a high balcony.

Climb the yellow pipe.

Locate the rope and grab it to reach the northern balcony. Be careful here, because the door will open and a few monsters will run out. It is best to kick the zombies off the edge, but watch out not to fall down yourself, as it would mean instant death. Enter the northern tower. You cannot use the ladder here, so grab the yellow pipe and climb it to the top. When you reach a place where the pipe turns right, be careful, because you may easily fall. Then, climb onto the balcony.

Remove the light bulbs.

Use the ladder and when you reach the end of it, face another balcony to jump. You can open the red door. Carefully start approaching the bulbs that are burning (green light) and interact with them to remove them. After you get all the light bulbs, locate new interactive edges on the south wall and use them to climb. Remove the bulbs located here. You can now enter a small safe zone and use the bed, or (if you're not afraid of travelling at night) grab the rope and go down. You just have to return to Alfie in the Tower and give him the bulbs.
