While playing “The Broken Sky” main quest in Horizon Forbidden West, you will get a side mission of recovering some valuable items for Handa. Her contract holds handsome rewards of XP and metal shards.
Now, for Handa, you need to track down the thieves and recover her stolen goods so she can complete her armor. This guide details your steps to complete the Property Retrieval contract in Horizon Forbidden West.
How to Start the Contract?
You must meet Handa at the Salvage Camp in Greenswell to start the property retrieval contract.
Find the Rogue Salvagers
After talking to Handa, head to the campsite on the northwest lake behind Salt Bite settlement.
Once you get there, move past the bridge toward the campfire to pick up the trail of Salvagers.
Follow the Track
From the campfire, follow the tracks that will lead you toward the dead body of the thieves. But note that there will be a Snapmaw roaming in the area, and you must take it down first to examine the body.
Recover the Stolen Treasure Map
Loot the corpse, and you will find Carja Scroll on it. This scroll will lead to a position on the map next to the Relic Ruin, our next destination.
Go to the Ruins Marked on the Treasure Map
Go to the Salt Bite and follow the southwest path to enter the town gate. Keep going southwest to get to another campfire. You need to move in the same direction to get to a ruined tower.
How to Reach the Roof of the Ruin?
There are two ways to get to the top of the ruins. You can either use the ability to fly, as it is much easier to move on top of the roof. However, if you haven’t unlocked this ability yet, there is no need to worry.
You must look for a water tower around the place on the eastward side. Use it to climb the tower; from there, you can slowly glide down to land on the roof. Now open the cache to find what you were looking for in the first place.
After doing all the mentioned guidance, you have to return to Handa and return all that belongs to her. As soon as you turn it in, the contract will be complete. After completing the Property Retrieval contract in Horizon Forbidden West, you will receive 3750 XP, an Apex Rollerback Heart, and 50 metal shards.
