How to find this skull

Mission: Truth and Reconciliation

Before you jump into the gravity lift and board the ship, walk toward the cliff. Look for a tree with white light glowing underneath it. Turn on your flashlight and carefully look down along the cliff edge. Iron is slightly to the left of the tree, and you will need to make a careful drop to pick it up.

Before boarding the ship, leave the gravity lift and head toward the cliff.

Best use

Iron makes survival consistency more important than individual encounter speed and is central to LASO planning.

Tradeoffs

A late solo death can erase an entire mission attempt.

Suggested combinations

Practice with Black Eye and Mythic separately before combining the full LASO preset.
