Six of these are lying around the runis of New Mombasa and require players to search out and find them. This guide will help you find the objects that start each of the missions. To find the mission start points, you will need to look at your map. From the map you will see six small circular beacons constantly pulsing away. The game will list the various locations of the ODST beacons for you on the left of the screen. Pressing up or down on the D-pad will move your targeted location between beacons and update your compass accordingly. After selecting the beacon you are interested in, return to the game and follow the waypoint to the location. When you arrive, you will have to search around the area for an ODST relic. If you have your VISR on, the mission-starting objects will be outlined with bright yellow. Simply walk up to them and use the interact button to start the mission. Here's a list of the Rookie's objectives and where to find each of them. - IMAGE: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.playhaven.com/guides/RrZTFs5woURc/images/1_0/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Map showing each of the locations ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Tayari Plaza =============================================================================== Make your way to the Tayari Plaza beacon and find the large pit.
