Elex: The Big Bang — Walkthrough
Last update: Sunday, November 27, 2022
The Big Bang is a main quest in Elex, and it is related to the great bomb built by the Outlaws. You can help them prepare the detonation. In the latter part of this quest, a plot twist will come, and you will have to fight quite a difficult boss.
How to unlock the quest: Talk to Conrad or Duke Logan in the Duke’s Bunker.
- Finding the parts for the bomb
- Finding Konrad
- Boss fight – The Big Bang
- Ending of the quest and the epilogue
Conrad and the bomb are in the same bunker
You have to reach The Fort, i.e. the Outlaws base. Find the entrance to Duke’s Bunker and meet Conrad there to talk about the bomb preparations. Then talk to Duke Logan to learn that he wants to use it to dominate other factions. You will be able to help the Outlaws develop the bomb.
Go back to Conrad and ask about the remaining parts needed to finish the bomb. He will order you to find three components. Intimidate, ask, or pay 100 Elexit to Conrad to learn where these parts can be found. The order in which you collect them doesn’t matter.
Finding the parts for the bomb
Concentric Cross-Armature Coil is the first thing you need. You can find that in a military base that’s west of the Sandy Pines motel and northwest from The Fort. Minefields surround the base, and there are pretty strong Rippers inside, but all these hazards can be bypassed. Enter the main building and use the jetpack to fly into the room on the first floor. Take the first component (shown above) (400XP).
Next up: Proprietary Edwards Condenser. To find it, set out north from The Fort. You have to reach a location with a huge, ruined dome – this location is also overrun with Rippers. You can fight them or focus on finding the needed part (above) and fleeting (400XP).
Inverse Phase Conductor is the third component. You can find this one in a big factory west of The Fort, which can be conveniently reached by heading east from Goliet. While exploring the factory, watch out for the Rippers and for big precipices (jet pack will come in handy). You have to enter the chamber shown above – the radiation there is pretty strong. Take on some countermeasures beforehand and exit before the radiation gets you (400XP).
After collecting all parts, go back to Conrad and give them to him to receive 2000XP. Go back to Duke and tell him that the bomb is finished.
Finding Konrad
After collecting all three parts, go back to Konrad to give them to him. You’ll get 2000XP. Go back to Duke and tell him the bomb’s ready.
Leave the fort and go north, to the Ruins of the Dome. Watch out, for there may be some strong beasts in the base (such as Moloch or Slime Drakon). The ultimate destination is the ruined dome you can see above (400XP). Before jumping down into the arena, save the game and make sure you have some good ranged weapons (or magic) – laser and plasma guns will be perfect. After stepping into the dome, a cut scene will commence, where you will learn that Konrad didn’t indeed construct the bomb – it actually was The Big Bang. You have to defeat the giant machine by yourself (any companion you might have will be sent back).
Boss fight – The Big Bang
When the fight begins, don’t try to attack the huge machine (it’s surrounded with a force field). Use the environment for cover from its energy attacks and watch out for the powerful slam into the ground it makes (step aside).
If you don’t happen to have good ranged weapons, then you might use the Laser Blaster LSR-T – find it and see if you’re able to use it.
Wait for the moments, when the smaller machine (The Big Bang Workshop) flies out of the levitating robot. It will always head towards the elex deposits to extract some of it. Attack it while it’s still in the air (picture 1) or engage melee attacks when it gets lower (pic. 2). Try to constantly move – the big machine will drop some explosives.
Don’t get too close, or you’ll get burned
After destroying the Big Bang Workshop (250XP) you will get to the second stage of the fight. In this stage, the levitating robot will be using a flamethrower. If you don’t have elements of armor and the skills that increase fire resilience then don’t let the boss close in on you. Use any distance attacks to weaken the boss. You will get 2500XP for defeating The Big Bang.
Ending of the quest and the epilogue
You can choose to kill Konrad
Go back to Duke’s Bunker and tell Logan about everything. This will end the main quest (2000XP), but you will also get an additional side quest – track and kill Konrad.
Konrad is hiding with the Clerics – in The Hort. Find him in the factory. You can talk to him first. If you want to fulfill Duke’s order, attack Konrad and kill him (1100XP). Go back to Duke and claim the bounty – 3000 Elexit. If you care about your reputation with the Clerics then leave Konrad alone.

Since it is an RPG, players will make choices that either helps them and/or have dire consequences and face different types of enemies including formidable bosses. One of these bosses is the Big Bang and it will take a lot to defeat it. So what’s the best way to defeat the Big Bang?
Take On «The Big Bang» Main Story Quest
Before players face the Big Bang, they must partake in «The Big Bang» main story quest. Duke Logan will give players the mission in the Fort. For this mission, players will travel to an area called «Ruins of the Dome» where they will encounter strong enemies. They must take down these enemies before reaching the Dome, so players should take high-damage weaponry and items that generate health.
Before Fighting The Big Bang Boss in Elex
Before fighting the Big Bang, players will approach the dome area and they will have to jump down to the arena portion. Prior to this, players should save the game and ensure they are equipped with the right weapons for ranged fighting in the form of guns, magic, or whatever else works.
Once that is done, players will then need to jump down to the arena. This will start a cutscene where the Big Bang robot will reveal itself and the fight then begins.
Fighting The Big Bang Boss in Elex
This fight will be difficult as players have to battle this robot without the aid of their companions. Additionally, starting out, the orb-shaped robotic menace will be encased in a force field so attacking it will not suffice.
Players will need to avoid the robot’s attacks in the meantime by keeping their distance and hiding behind walls. Or if possible, get to upper ground via flying to fire down from above. Eventually, the orb will release a smaller robot called Big Bang Workshop that will mine the element Elexit from the ground.
Players should use this chance to attack the robot while it is in the air or mining on the ground using whatever weapons they have. The orb will launch mines at the player to protect the Workshop. Players need to defeat Big Bang Workshop to proceed to the second stage of the fight.
The Second Stage Of The Boss Fight in Elex
For the second stage, the main Big Bang will float in the air and attack with a flamethrower. Players need to keep their distance if they want to avoid getting hit by the flamethrower by constantly moving.
Unlike the first stage, the Big Bang is now susceptible to regular attacks at all times. So players need to deal damage from afar until the boss’s health meter runs out.

The Big Bang is a giant machine that is one of the bosses in Elex . During the passage of Elex , you will have to destroy this boss. And today in our guide we will tell you how to kill the Big Bang boss.
You can get the quest for this boss while communicating with Duke Logan, who can be found in the Fort (Rogue Headquarters). The battle with this boss will not be very easy, which is why we have prepared this Elex walkthrough guide. Since you will not be able to weaken the enemy using standard attacks.
How to defeat the Big Bang boss
The battle with this boss will be available as soon as you go in search of Konrad and find all the necessary parts to create a bomb. After that, you will need to go to the Dome Ruins. You should be very careful there, since this boss in Elex is very difficult, in addition, there you can encounter enemies such as Moloch and the Dragon.
Here your main task will be to get to the ruined dome, the location of which will be marked on the map. Before heading into the arena, save your game and make sure you have your strongest weapon or attack, magic. nine0003
Entering the dome begins with a cut-scene where you learn that Konrad created the Big Bang robot. You must defeat this giant machine alone (your companion is sent back to the team’s camp).
Do not attempt to attack the giant levitating machine because it is protected by a force field. For starters, it’s best to use nearby walls to avoid his Big Bang boss attack. You should also be careful, as this villain in the game gives a powerful ground strike. Don’t stand next to him. nine0003
To damage the boss and defeat him, use the LSR-T laser blaster, which is shown in the picture below:
Wait for a while, when a smaller robot called the Big Bang Workshop appears from the levitating robot. He always goes to one of the nearby Elexit deposits and starts mining it. Hit him while he’s in the air, or use melee attacks when he’s low enough. Remember to keep moving when the smaller robot is mining Elexit, because the larger one will throw explosive charges — stay away from them. nine0003
Destroying the Workshop allows you to proceed to the second stage of the battle. Here, a large levitating robot will use a flamethrower. Unless you have armor and abilities that increase your resistance to fire, you should not let the boss get close to you. Use ranged attacks to weaken the car. Keep attacking the Big Bang until the boss loses all health.

Elex is a chic action game created in the genre of science fiction with a touch of post-apocalypse. Venerable critics highly appreciated the game, giving it very flattering reviews. Well, for many players who liked Elex, the walkthrough in Russian will be interesting to read. nine0003
Elex game — general information
The game was released in autumn 2017. Moreover, by this time, players have been impatiently waiting for this new product for two years, because the announcement took place back in August 2015.
For a comfortable game you need a fairly powerful (at least it was at the time of release) computer. The minimum system requirements are a 2.5 GHz Core i5 processor, 6 gigabytes of RAM and a fairly powerful video card with at least 1 gigabyte of memory.
It will take a whole 40 hours to complete the game Elex quickly, and even more with the completion of all side quests.
Help! Novice players are unlikely to keep within 40 hours of time, especially if they spend no more than 2-3 hours a day on the game.
Guide to the passage of the main story by chapters, all tasks in full
Even the most experienced players may well have problems completing such a difficult game. And this applies even to the main plot. If we consider the passage of the Elex game as a berserker, outcast or cleric, then we would have to write a whole book. So, it is worth briefly going over the main points. nine0003
Chapter 1
Play as Jax, a squad leader from the Albian faction. He will have to endure many serious trials.
Survive
Being far away from civilization with one rod in hand, the hero must make every effort to survive. To begin with, kill an aggressive rodent, and then go to the nearest large settlement. On the way on the hill you can find a useful amulet.
Important! On the road near the ruins, you can talk to Duras — he will offer to join the Berserker clan. nine0003
The main goal is to get to Golieta village. True, along the way you will have to finish off several enemies. But the main character will be able to get hold of equipment.
Stolen equipment
You need to kill Ray, a thief who stole a lot of weapons. You can find him in the «Motel» — north of Goliet. From him, the hero learns that Ray has developed a vigorous activity and sold all the goods. But you can take a new task from him, after which the thief will join the squad.
Separatist hideout
At the rebel base, meet Sestak and complete a few tasks for him:
- Get to the control room by elevator.
- Kill a couple of Albs in the town of Edan (preferably level 10 or higher).
- Join a faction.
When all missions are completed, you can turn in the quest.
Beginning — Power of the Center
Quest given by Lloyd in the village. First you need to find three mercenaries to protect the village — it is quite possible to contract your companions for this business. Then to find Genesee — he went to hunt dangerous predators. nine0003
Very convenient — you can lure enemies to him, and this daredevil will kill everyone.
Upon completion, come to Lloyd and receive a reward: experience points and a tower. At the same time, the hero is recognized as a leader in the village.
Big Bang
Speaking of the game Elex, a complete walkthrough is impossible without completing this quest.
You can take the quest from Conrad or Logan. It is necessary to assemble a powerful bomb — for this you will need the appropriate components. They can be found:
- at the military near the Motel;
- under the ruined dome above the fort;
- at the factory to the left of the fort.
After collecting everything you need, report to Logan.
Big Offensive
The task is taken in Hort, near Ulbricht. It is necessary to find a commander who would lead the detachment into battle. Many acquaintances will refuse, but Nasty will agree. True, for this you will have to complete several tasks for her — to destroy the monsters.
Having set out with a detachment, you will have to fight against three types of enemies: colossi, an army of robots and detachments of Albs.
Attention! EMP rounds come in handy here — they take out colossi the easiest.
Free as a bird
A very difficult task — you need to decide which faction is best to join. Further nuances depend on this — for example, in the game Eleks, the passage for rogues is slightly different from the passage for berserkers. nine0003
In any case, you will have to complete certain quests for initiation.
Help! Reinhold, who is in Ignadon, can accept into the priest faction.
Chapter 2
This chapter is the shortest in the game — you won’t have to spend much time to complete it.
Old man
Need to find a location to recruit new allies. You need to visit Sestak to find out where the new village is located.
You will have to go east, into the mountains — there is a base here, where it will not be difficult to find Zardom.
Zardom’s Battle Plan
Zardom gives a new task — to find a group of Albs and destroy it.
To search for enemies, it is better to use the converter — they are located to the left of the village. It is better to lure them out one by one and destroy them. After completing the task to find the elector — it is located in northern Abessa, in the mountains. After finishing him, return to Zardom and tell about everything. nine0003
Chapter #3
A rather complicated and very bloody chapter that even an experienced player will have to sweat over. To reach it, you have to go through the Valley of the Damned. It will give new tasks:
- turn off the converter,
- find Vardek — Jax’s father,
- help with Zardom’s problem,
- Find the required element for the reactor.
- Berserkers — wield bows and swords, and also control magic. nine0053
- Forsworn are excellent with conventional weapons, and at the same time make stims and ammo.
- Clerics favor energy weapons and various PSI skills like teleportation, hologram creation.
nine0056
War with machines
Thorald asks to weaken the defense of the Albs in the region — to destroy all the converters. All points are well armed, so you will have to shoot a lot.
At each base, you will have to start the elevator, go up to the top floor and turn off the panel there — there are no puzzles here.
Help! At this stage, from the satellite (Ray) you can get a task in the Elex game — «For a Fistful of Shards», the passage of which is associated with the search and elimination of the threat. nine0003
Family meeting
Thorald will send the hero to meet with Wardek — he is at the base of the Albian rebels. Jax learns from him where his brother is. You need to go to the mountains, climb the highest house, using a jetpack for this. Here an ambush awaits the hero — if you can’t fight back, then it’s better to immediately retreat — otherwise you can accept the death of the brave.
Upon meeting with Wardek, Jax learns why he was attacked. Now you have to go to the fishing village and swim a little. nine0003
Heavy suspicion
While talking to Thorald, Jax realizes that Zard is not who he claims to be. You need to deal with him. To begin with, go to the base where the hero spoke to him for the first time. If he is not there, then you need to explore the area and find a document signed by Zardom and Ray.
Yes, it was Ray who shot down the plane at one time. During the conversation, he confesses everything, at the same time noting that Zard kidnapped his brother and forced him to do it.
Defective reactor
The necessary thing is in the left corner of the location, which is literally teeming with enemies — everyone will have to be killed. Upon reaching the place, Jax will see an underground tunnel through which you can go down.
It’s better to jump with the help of a jetpack — otherwise it’s quite possible to kill yourself and have to start playing from the last save. Once in the tunnel, go down to the lower level, inspect all the rooms — this is where the element is located.
Chapter 4
Perhaps it is during the passage of chapter number four that you will have to run the most — a good warm-up for the main character. nine0003
Through the icy desert
Jax will receive a list of people to kill from Torald. You can complete the quest in any order and at any time — day or night.
The main thing in battles is to destroy the colossi in the first place — they cause the most problems.
Help! There is a very interesting quest in the Elex game — «Tooth for a Tooth», the passage of which can give different rewards depending on the actions of the main character. For the execution, you will be able to get more points if you interview all five suspects. nine0003
Separatist Test
Torald sends the hero to meet Sestak. Here he has two options — to engage in battle with him or to persuade the Albs to join the main character. The further plot depends on this decision.
Voice of Eleks
Thorald will tell you that he needs a strong mage. Jax will recommend Kaj — he will need to be brought. Alas, during the experiment, due to Zardom’s attack, everything will go awry. You will have to talk to Thorald again, and then go to Northern Abessa to find Kaja. nine0003
Who I am
Thorald asks you to fight Kallax — before that you need to replenish supplies. After destroying the enemy, you can pick up the code that allows you to release the Hybrid.
To do this, you need to get to the point where you found the lost element, go down and go to the room near the stairs. Here is a code that allows you to open the Ice Palace prison.
Last flight
To repair the aircraft, the last element is needed — so says Harley. You will have to go to Xacor, where the bunker is located. After killing the enemies, you can pick up the part and bring Harley. nine0003
Finale
Finally, the fun begins!
Battle of Xacor
At this point, it’s a good idea to have a good squad of companions. Without them, the battle for the Ice Palace will be a failure.
Help! It is better to destroy enemies from afar, first of all, aiming at robots — their subversion is the most dangerous.
![]()
Lair of the Beast
Talk to Tarek before going to the Hybrid. Here you can also find notes about your father and talk with him, which will finally put everything in its place. nine0003
After that, the battle with the Hybrid will begin. You can not be distracted by robots — the main thing is to bang the boss.
The future of Magalan
After the victory, all that remains is to visit old friends: Harley, Lloyd, Ragnar, Reinhold and just talk with them.
Unique Skills
Each faction, be it Berserkers, Outcasts or Clerics (but not petty riffraff like raiders and claws), has certain unique features:
Of course, the game deserves every shooter and action lover to go through it from training to the final.
