1. Toss Common Items at Doomstadt (5)

For the first stage, you need to toss five common items at Doomstadt, a Named Location. This is super easy!

2. Hit an Opponent Within 10 Seconds of Exiting a Hiding Place (1)

In this challenge, you need to hit an opponent within 10 seconds after exiting a hiding place. A good trick is to hide in a bush or a dumpster, wait for an enemy to approach, then quickly pop out and land a hit. As long as you hit them within 10 seconds of leaving the hiding spot, you’ll complete the quest!

3. Wake Up Brainwashed Characters or Eliminate Hired Followers (3)

This task requires you to either wake up 3 brainwashed characters or eliminate hired followers. Waking up brainwashed NPCs is usually quicker. Mysterio has brainwashed three characters on the map: Rust, Peabody, and Brite Raider. Go to each character and talk to them in order to wake them up. Their locations are shown in the image below.
