Reports have come in about a broken down strider, with precious cargo and a freelancer needing your help getting it back up and running. As the helpful freelancer that you are, you are tasked to find the stranded strider and bring it the resources it needs to work once more. All the while, there are plenty of enemies converging on its position that need fending off.

Anthem A Cry For Help guide

In order to complete the missions in Anthem, you’ll need all the intel for all of your Javelins, as well as the stuff that’s not as well explained in the game. Head on over to our Anthem guide hub for various guides on the ins and outs of the game. You can also head back to the Anthem Missions hub to find the mission you are looking for.

Interceptor Javelin dashing towards some Wolven about to attack the strider.

Fly to the north of the Great Falls Canyon to find the strider looking a little worse for wear. On top of that, there are a bunch of Wyverns that need to be taking out. You may use the elevated position of the strider to get a better viewpoint of the Wyverns. Speak to Freelancer Diggs once they're taken out. He'll inform you that he needs some tools to repair the strider. Head along the trail and use the radar to find the missing tools, being wary of the Anrisaurs as you pass through.

Eventually you'll be led to an ambush site where there's not only more Wyverns, but also a Lesser Ash Titan. These aren't as big as the regular Titans, but can still pack a nasty punch. Use all your strongest attacks on this hulking beast, while picking off the Wyverns with gunshots. Search the debris and head back to the strider.

An Ursix being hit by an electrical attack from a nearby Storm Javelin. The Interceptor is reloading.

Some Wolven will have found the stranded strider, which will need neutralising, however the big thing to watch out for here is the incoming Ursix. You could take it on as intended, but the elevation of the strider makes for a wonderful sniping spot. Defeat the beast and check on the strider's repairs to finish this quest.

Just a reminder that you can always head back to the Anthem Missions hub to find the mission you are looking for or head back to the previous main story mission: Anthem Incursion. This next bit is... well... tedious. You'll need to find the secrets in our Anthem Tomb of the Legionnaires guide.
