There are many open fuseboxes around Hell-A that you can insert Dead Island 2 fuses into to reactivate circuits and open doors to otherwise inaccessible areas. The secure Dead Island 2 caches are filled with loot, which will definitely keep you stocked up for your adventure, but their locked doors can’t be unlocked with Dead Island 2 keys. Here’s what you need to know about tracking down Dead Island 2 fuse locations using a different method.
Dead Island 2 Fuses: How to Get Them
Traders sell Dead Island 2 fuses exclusively, so you won’t find them lying around as loot. These sellers are usually found close to Dead Island 2 fast travel spots, but one can also be found ‘in the wild’. The following Traders provided us with fuses:
- Beverly Hills: Roxanne’s House – Roger
- Beverly Hills: Red House on north side – Francesca
- Bel-Air: Emma’s Mansion – Carlos
- Hollywood Boulevard: Re-Aging Clinic – Todd
- The Pier: Lifeguard HQ – Ezekiel
- Venice Beach: Blue Crab Grill – Kai
- Venice Beach: The Tower – W.O. Rodriguez
- Ocean Avenue: Serling Hotel – Dougie
There are only three Dead Island 2 fuses you can carry at a time in your inventory, which is why it’s always a good idea to stock up on them when you’re passing a Trader so you can use them while out and about.
Dead Island 2: Fuse Locations
You can use Dead Island 2 fuse locations to open locked rooms by opening your map and looking for the fuse icons as shown in the image above. You’ll see any fuseboxes you’ve passed near tagged on the map, and sometimes you’ll also see a question mark icon that’s a fusebox if you investigate it. A green tick will appear over the icon once the fuse has been used to open the door.
Dead Island 2: How to Use Fuses
Having an open fusebox as shown above and interacting with it is the only way to use fuses in Dead Island 2. The fuse will then be placed inside, opening a nearby door or shutter, allowing you to access an area that had previously been locked off. Watch out for tripwires rigged up to shotguns – you can disarm them by luring the zombies into them, shooting the tripwires, or carefully approaching and disarming the rigged shotguns if you can reach them. Be aware that there are almost always zombies inside, along with traps.
As you search around the fuse room, you’ll find plenty of consumables and parts to bolster your suppliers after making the fuse room safe. Nevertheless, the highlight of Dead Island 2 is the Zombproof Slayer Hoard crate, which you can open to receive a new weapon. With some Dead Island 2 perks, this will turn into a deadly slaying tool matched to your level.
