RDA Facilities

Destroying all RDA facilities is required to reach 100% air quality on Pandora. There are 57 of them in total and they can be divided into 3 types:

  • RDA Bases - The largest, heavily fortified facilities with lots of defenses, and anti-aircraft turrets. There are 3 such facilities. You will destroy two of these bases during the main quests.
  • RDA Outposts - Medium sized facilities. They also have an anti aircraft defense. There are 19 such facilities.
  • RDA Mining Installations - The smallest-size facilities with the least amount of defense. The are 35 such facilities.

After destroying each of these facilities, you will be able to use them as fast travel points and get access to some loot crates. Additionally, in bases and outposts you will be able to access the strategic deployment console where you can find RDA Duty Rosters (you can use them to buy gear from So'lek at Main Hub in Resistance Hideout) and after some time additional Bellsprigs will grow on their premises. You will also be able to find additional Audio Logs or Notes in some of them.

Once you destroy 5 RDA Outposts, you will unlock the "Hit Them Where It Hurts" achievement / trophy. When you destroy 10 RDA installations you will unlock the "Little by Little" achievement / trophy. After destroying all RDA facilities and reaching 100% Air Quality, the "Reclaim Pandora" achievement / trophy will be unlocked.
