Laptop for Aaz

The gunsmith and merchant Aaz wants us to retrieve an Asus laptop for him from one of the workshops inside the [ Jupiter plant] before he tells us the way out of Jupiter.
== Walkthrough ==
This quest has a lot of armored enemies. Come with lots of protection and big guns, long and short range. You may also want to clear the natural controller spawn before speaking to Aaz.
=== Jupiter plant assault ===
Jupiter plant assault schematic:
# Natural Monolith and merc spawns
# Gate, needs a sniper rifle to approach, danger of natural spawns
# Checkpoint, can be assaulted up close if approached along the wall
# Turret on the passage between buildings
# Turret on the corner of a building
# Turret on the ground, behind the bush
# 4 controllers
# Turret on the ground, behind the bush
Both the gate and the checkpoint are guarded by large Monolith groups. Third one is inside the plant itself. The internal territory is full of foliage obstructing your view, and there are three inferno bloodsuckers in the NE and four controllers (including psionics) in the SE corners, hidden away by the foliage, constructions, and buildings.
Inside the plant, you encounter Crudface, the leader of the Monolith group who was hunting for the armor Sakharov promised you at the start of the storyline. He is the same man who held Ariadne's father captive to work on the armor and later kidnapped Ariadne herself. Pick up Crudface's Gaussgun and look for Aaz's laptop in the control room of the loading port.
After killing Crudface, a large amount of Monolith will spawn. These units will run to their stations all along the route to the outside of the plant, including the room you are currently in. This includes two fully invisible units so check your corners with BPOs binoculars regularly.
=== Return to Aaz ===
Return to Aaz with the laptop. He informs you that Ariadne has already managed to escape the Monolith thanks to his timely intervention. He gave her a gun to defend herself with and sent her to Agroprom. By now she will have reached the Swamps to pick up the medication from Kalmyk's place.
Unfortunately, the direct route to Agroprom has been blocked off by now. The only route back to Eastern Pripyat is through Pripyat-1 Underpass. He gives you the transition, located in the center of the Jupiter factory.
=== Pripyat-1 Underpass ===
Twelve turrets and thirteen Monolithians will be scattered through the Underpass if the quest spawns from TV for Dimak have not been dealt with already. More detailed information on both loot and enemies can be found on that quest's page.
=== Eastern Pripyat ===
After fighting through the underpass, you'll emerge next to the laundromat and can hand in Dimak's PDA and finally continue The medication for Ariadna's father.
== Notes ==
* A backpack stash in a strategic location will be necessary if you want to loot goblin everything from the Monolith fighters. Monolith squads respawn within the plant, so it's best to choose a location somewhat off the beaten path nearby. You could also simply leave behind the guns, as Aaz doesn't pay much for them, but who's going to leave behind loot in this game? Look for the merchant list to find the best prices for it.
** The west side of the crater anomaly northwest of the plant has no NPC pathing and is a safe place to stash loot.
* Several of the Monolith elites are fully cloaked. Headshots can be achieved by aiming slightly up and to the right from their gun model. If they're close enough a cloud of birdshot or buckshot will do the job even more reliably, but small caliber bodyshots will still take them down as they are not armored.
* A few jump artifacts or strategically placed rucksacks can help you make your way to the rooftops of the plant. This is especially helpful on the way out, as reinforcements will be streaming in and will end up stationed all throughout the area.
** The roofs can also be reached from the outside of the plant without jump artifacts by jumping onto the northern staircase using the miniature "girder" structures and taking the old Beard's backpack route. This will allow you to clear the plant from the safety of the rooftops.
== Bugs ==
* Crudface is actually named Monster in the dialogues, Eveldoer as the actual NPC, and Crudface on his personal gun. This is a result of miscommunication in the translation team. Here in the wiki, "Crudface" was picked because everybody already called him like that. In the original version, he has a single name (Изверг).
