Step By Step Guide to Finishing The Clean and Snatch
Follow along below to tackle every objective and enemy this expansive side quest pits you against:
Starting Location
Our journey kicks off at this inconspicuous pool house tucked in the elevated locales of Beverly Hills:
See that gaudy chest logoed "Obi‘s Things" near some lounging chairs? Interact with it to discover a foreboding note pointing towards more clues scattered across the district‘s winding hillside estates.
And just like that, an odd round of paranormal scavenger hunting begins!
Locating All 3 Collectible Clues
With the quest formally initiated, consult your journal to reveal descriptions on where to recover 3 critical clues: Obi‘s Phone, Note For Michael, and Dave‘s Phone.
I know first-hand how frustrating navigating these lavish labyrinths of pools, gardens and guest villas can be. So I‘ve compiled maps including the exact spots where each document lies in wait:
Still having trouble locating these key items even with marked maps? Check out this quick video flythrough guiding you straight to each evidence parcel:
With case files in hand, we can start piecing together this mystery and deduce our next moves.
Infiltrating the Bel Air Estate
The trail of clues leads to a decadent estate nestled deep in the hills of Bel Air owned by one Michael Galvan. Coincidentally our deceased pal Obi seemed quite smitten with Michael‘s daughter Cadence judging by his texts.
Could answers lie within these fortified walls? There‘s only one way to find out!
Steel yourself before approaching though – the courtyard and perimeter are crawling with agitated infected like any lush sanctuary in LA. I prefer stealth assassinating them one-by-one to conserve resources before confronting "Obi The Pool Guy" himself.
Boss Battle: Obi The Pool Guy
Don‘t be fooled by his unimposing name – a juiced up Obi is no laughing matter, especially if you‘re lower level. Between corrupted power tools emitting lethal sparks and Obi‘s own frenetic attacks, this showdown entails calculated evasive maneuvers.
Bait out his frenzied bull rush dive which renders him vulnerable for a few counter attack seconds. Just beware when Obi‘s health drops below 25% – he enters a seizure-esque berserker mode with even deadlier area denial attacks via duct taped tools.
Here‘s a preview of the chaos:
Retrieving Obi‘s Keyring
Topple this menacing mimic of Obi‘s former self and reap the rewards off his corpse. A keyring holding several keys and a rusted token rests beside the fallen imposter.
These hold the key to unlocking our final prize. But first, one last journey remains back to where our quest began near the sun-soaked pools of Beverly Hills…
The Final Stretch
Having slayed the zombified groundskeeper Obi and scoring his keyring, return once more to the initial luxury cabin we discovered at the journey‘s onset.
There awaits the locked chest forebodingly labelled "Obi‘s Things" as you may recall. Let‘s find out what secrets hide within…
Approach and unlock it with the special keys looted from Obi himself. Lift the hefty engraved lid to discover…
Rewards Revealed!
Slaying the infected echo of Obi grants you a handsome bounty – 2000 XP for advancing the core campaign alongside exotic new melee weapon blueprints!
Behold the conductive glory of the Electrocutor Officer‘s Sword. High lethality, range and speed in a lethal lightning-imbued package bound to carry fledgling zombie slayers another 5 levels at least!
And with that, draw the curtains on this gratifying side mystery leaving no bloodied stone in LA unturned. Hope you found my guide indispensable conquering the Clean and Snatch‘s challenges while elevating your monster hunting potency to electrifying new heights!
