Horizon Forbidden West Salvage Contracts: How to complete the Larend, Runda, Handa and Danur Salvage Contracts explained

Scrapheap challenge.

Salvage Contracts in Horizon: Forbidden West are side quests given to you by the various salvagers Aloy meets during her adventure.

Aside from Keruf, there are four salvagers you'll need to visit across the Forbidden West - Larend, Runda, Handa and Danur - and each one has a set of quests for you to complete.

Beginning with Keruf's Salvage Unlimited, completing all of the Salvager Contracts will grant you the best armor in Horizon: Forbidden West.

Keruf's Salvage Unlimited in Horizon Forbidden West explained

When entering Barren Light for the first time in Horizon: Forbidden West, you will run into Keruf and some of his guards right at the entrance. He will tell you about his scrap and salvage business in the Forbidden West and will ask for your help in getting the gates opened so he can return to his main camp. He will ask you to come and visit the camp once you're in No Man's Land.

In order to start these Salvage Contracts, you will need to complete the Main Quest, The Embassy. This will give you full access to No Man's Land and the first Salvager you need to speak to, Larend.

To complete Keruf's Salvage Unlimited you will need to complete the following tasks:

  • Talk to the Lead Salvager
  • Fulfill Larend's Contracts
  • Go to the Oseram Salvage Camp
  • Talk to the Lead Salvager
  • Fulfill Runda's Contracts
  • Talk to the Lead Salvager
  • Fulfill Handa's Contracts
  • Find Other Salvage Camps
  • Fulfill Danur's Contracts
  • Talk to Keruf

Aloy has returned in Horizon: Forbidden West! To help you get started in her new quest, visit our pages on how levelling and skill points work, along with how to upgrade your inventory pouches. We’ve also looked at how to climb the Tallneck in Cinnabar Sands, cauldron locations and the door code for Death’s Door mission.


Larend Salvage Contracts in No Man's Land for Horizon Forbidden West explained

Larend is the first Salvager you meet in No Man's Land and he is located just beyond the gates of Barren Light, off the main trail in Horizon: Forbidden West. He is one of Keruf's salvagers and is participating in the major armor competition held by Keruf.

If he can craft the best armor in the West, then he can bring in a lot of shards. But he needs your help with four contracts. Once you complete them, he will have all the parts he needs to construct his armor.

Here are Larend's four salvage contracts:

  • Convoy Ambush
  • Scavengers
  • Alarm Antennas
  • Elusive Fanghorn

Convoy Ambush

LevelRewards
82000 XP
1 Coil Shock +7%
40 Metal Shards

In Convoy Ambush, you must ambush a Shell-Walker Convoy out in the desert in order to obtain plating from a Shell-Walker Crate. Larend will have traps and a shelter prepared for you. Once you are there, set up some additional traps and let time pass.

In the evening, the convoy will appear. Defeat the machines and loot the Shell-Walker. Return to Larend with the plating he needs.

Scavengers

LevelRewards
82000 XP
1 Apex Widemaw Heart
40 Metal Shards

In Scavengers, Larend believes that Scrapper Jaws will be an excellent addition to his armor. You will need to go to a Charger site south of Chainscrape and kill a few of the machines there. This will lure in the Scrappers you need. Kill the Scrappers and loot 3 Scrapper Jaws. Return to Larend with the jaws.

Alarm Antennas

LevelRewards
82000 XP
1 Coil Fire +7%
40 Metal Shards

In Alarm Antennas, Larend needs you to go to a Scrounger site to the southeast of Barren Light. Once you are there, kill the Scroungers and loot 3 Scrounger Alarm Antennas. Return to Larend with the parts he needs.

Elusive Fanghorn

LevelRewards
102500 XP
2 Skill Points
1 Impact Spike Thrower
60 Metal Shards

For this contract, you will need to go to the riverbank south of Larend's camp and look for a Fanghorn. Search for the Fanghorn tracks, and when you find them, highlight and follow them. You will not be able to catch the Fanghorn on foot, so you will need a mount to chase after the machine. Kill the Fanghorn and take the salvage back to Larend.

Now that Larend has all the parts he needs, he can now craft his armor.

Runda Salvage Contracts in The Stillsands for Horizon Forbidden West explained

Runda is the Salvager you meet when you go to the Oseram Salvage Camp in The Stillsands, west of Hidden Ember in Horizon: Forbidden West. Her people will be in a bit of trouble and she will need your help in collecting items that they lost during their expedition. She will also need your help in getting materials for her armor.

  • Lost Supplies
  • Pristine Bellowback
  • Missing Gear
  • Rollerback Salvage

Lost Supplies

Pristine Bellowback

LevelRewards

1 Coil Instant Corroding Chance +4%
75 Metal Shards

For this contract, Runda needs a Bellowback's Cargo Sac, so that her people can set up a defensive perimeter around their camp. You will need to go to a nearby Bellowback site and kill a Bellowback, leaving its Cargo Sac intact. Bring the Sac back to Runda.

Missing Gear

LevelRewards
205000 XP
1 Shell-Walker Lighting Gun

Runda asks Aloy for help in retrieving their missing gear. The gear location will be west of Camp Nowhere.

Get there and look for a broken-down cart in the sand. Investigate the cart and the nearby debris, then highlight and follow the machine tracks to a Sunwing nest. The missing gear will be a scrap pile. You can either quietly loot the pile or fight the Sunwing. Return the missing gear to Runda.

Rollerback Salvage

LevelRewards

1 Sunshot Hunter Bow
75 Metal Shards

With her camp having everything they need, Runda asks Aloy to help her recover the Rollerback salvage she needs to complete her armor. The Rollerback location will be southwest of Hidden Ember near the mountains.

When you arrive at the salvage site, a Shellsnapper will come out from the sand. Defeat it and then loot the 5 pieces of salvage you need. Return to Runda with what you find.

Now that he has everything she needs to make the armor, Runda gets to work.

Handa Salvage Contracts in The Greenswell for Horizon Forbidden West explained

Handa is the Salvager you meet north or Bleeding Mark in Horizon: Forbidden West. She has a well-established camp where she is forging her armor for Keruf's competition. She will need your help in collecting some materials.

Property Retrieval

The highlighted path will become erratic, due to the Snapmaws in the area, and then you will find the bodies of the rogue Salvagers. Search the bodies to retrieve the map, then follow the map to the Ancient Ruins. To get into the ruins, you will need to climb the tall tower next to it and glide onto the roof. Take the salvage back to Handa.

1 Punching Boltblaster
50 Metal Shards

To finish her armor, Handa needs Lancehorn salvage. She points you to an area southwest of her camp to find the Lancehorns.

You will not be able to catch these Lacehorns on foot so you will need to be mounted to kill the Lancehorns. Once the last Lancehorn is defeated, loot them and take the salvage back to Handa.

When you return back to her camp, they will be under attack by machines. Defeat the machines and talk to Handa. She will thank you for your help and will get started on making her armor.

Danur Salvage Contracts in Raintrace for Horizon: Forbidden West explained

Danur is the Salvager you meet in the Raintrace when seeking out other salvage camps in Horizon: Forbidden West. His camp will be located southwest of Fall's Edge and east of Thornmarsh.

Underwater Salvage

LevelRewards

There will be Snapmaws swimming around the salvage, but they can be avoided. One piece of salvage will be located in a smaller ruin. You will need to squeeze through the crack in the ruin to get to it.

Now that Danur has all the parts he needs, he can begin constructing his armor.

Once you've completed all of the salvage contracts for all four salvagers, you can now get the Oseram Artificer Outfit - the best armor in Horizon: Forbidden West!
