Dying Light: The Beast Safe Haven walkthrough

Dying Light: The Beast Safe Haven is the first quest you receive once you get out of the research facility of The Baron. While the escape sequence can be considered the first quest, its role as a tutorial lands the next official mission as the first in the game. In Safe Haven, you are expected to reach the Monastery, where the unknown voice over the radio asks you to proceed.

This article provides a walkthrough of the Dying Light: The Beast Safe Haven quest.

Keep heading down until you find a scenic edge overlooking the monastery with zombies feeding on some bodies. Kill them if you want, but make sure you grab the weapon lying next to them.

Take the road heading right from this point; you will go through a passage carved between mountains and will eventually cross a bridge beside a waterfall. Right after this, a small tutorial on jumping and grabbing horizontal beams will play, where you must cross the gap using the branch of a tree.

Keep heading down the path until you find the metal gate. Go toward the wall on its left and climb it to reach the Monastery.

Clear the zombies inside

In the next section of Dying Light: The Beast Safe Haven walkthrough, you will find the entrance swarmed with zombies. Use a firecracker on either side of the door to distract them. Now go ahead and try the door, only to find that you have to find another way in.

Climb the wall to the immediate right of this door to slowly make your way to a balcony that overlooks the Monastery courtyard. Jump down and head inside to establish a safe zone in this area.

After clearing the remaining infected, close the door of the room that houses the generator. Next, get the generator started so that you have power. Now keep making your way to the top using the stairs close to this room. There will be a few zombies along your path. Upon reaching the top, kick the zombie at the edge, and turn on the switch.

Talking to Olivia

After Kyle meets Olivia, the voice who was guiding him over the radio, she talks about GSB, which can help revive our protagonist's strength. However, this GSB can be found in the blood of Chimeras. These are named bosses you must defeat to acquire a sample of their blood and then inject their GSB into Kyle's own bloodstream.

Battle the Chimera

The first Chimera we fight is called the Reaper. He has a sharp bone in place of his right hand that works as his primary weapon. Be on your toes, since the Reaper likes to charge at you with this. Dodge sideways to have it rush past you. If you stand in front of a wall or a pillar, the Reaper will get stuck. This is your opportunity to get a majority of the hits in.

Always remember to be wary of your stamina and not end up using the entire bar. This is because the Reaper will force you to dodge, and without any stamina left, you will get mowed down. Once your Beast mode bar is full, go up close and start smashing him to take big chunks from his health bar.

Once you beat it, a cutscene will play where Kyle collapses due to an elevated heart rate. Olivia rushes in to extract the GSB from Reaper and inject it into Crane's bloodstream.

Get to the crafting table and then talk to Olivia

Thanks to Olivia, Kyle eventually wakes up after a few days of unconsciousness after having nightmares. He almost strangles her in his sleep while dreaming about Jade from Dying Light 1. This eventually takes you to the Skills tab in Dying Light: The Beast, where you unlock your first Beast Skill.

After this, head to the crafting table behind Olivia to pick up all the items and upgrade the Bandage blueprint to the next level. Following this, have a conversation with Olivia to finally conclude the Dying Light: The Beast Safe Haven quest.
