Keep Them Safe is a Main Story Mission in Days Gone. This walkthrough will guide you through all objectives of the “Keep Them Safe” Main Quest.

Keep Them Safe Starting Location

This mission will become available after Deacon rode back North to Lost Lake.

Clear the Horde

To build a huge truck-bomb, Deek proposes to get a hold of a lot of Fertiliser.

Head to Iron Butte to find what you are looking for. However, …

… there is a huge Horde feasting nearby, which has to be cleared before Boozer can come up here.
Get a vantage point and scan the area. There are a lot of explosive crates and barrels around, as well as some traps like tree-logs.
The whole Horde has roughly 180 Freakers in it – so it’s not exactly a small one.

To start, it is a good idea to throw a Napalm Molotov into the pit – this will take care of quite a few enemies.

From then on, there is no more rest, until you’ve defeated the whole Horde.
Lead them through the ditches, so that you can make the most of the explosives along the way, as well as your ammo from the automatic rifles.

Once they come too close, run, “regroup” & repeat.

Make use of most explosives around, as they are basically free kills and save you a lot of ammo.

If you’re not around explosives, you can also throw a grenade and roll away in the last moment to thin them out further.

If you cleared the whole Horde (and collected all their ears to trade them for Credits & Trust), ride into the compound to trigger the final cutscene with Boozer.

This concludes the Keep Them Safe Story Mission in Days Gone.
