Main Objectives

  • As a mechanic you can also repair (player) vehicles, you can buy Repair Kits from Market (Mechanic) Mechanic market.png . You can use them via (M → Player Options → [Mechanic]Repair Vehicle). Do note that these are not used for AI roadside assist calls.

AI Calls

Receive AI calls to fix/tow broken down vehicles:
  • Go to the Mechanic Office Mechanic office.png , enter the blue circle, follow the instructions and go on duty.
  • Get in your vehicle.
  • Wait for an automatic callout to occur, you must remain in your vehicle to be able to receive callouts.
  • Follow the GPS to the location marked on your map.
  • Approach the vehicle on foot, press E to inspect the vehicle.
  • You'll either need to tow the vehicle or assist in small repairs. Repairing is preferred as this allows you to immediately finish the call, but this requires you to have the correct tool (or have an activated master toolbox buff) with you.
  • A Skill Check will trigger. Time the event correctly.
    • Completing the skill check successfully and having the required tool will allow you to repair the vehicle on the spot. Otherwise you will have to tow the vehicle.
  • Congratulations, you will now be awarded with Mechanic experience and some money!

Master Toolbox

A Master Toolbox, also referred to as Mechanic Toolbox, is a consumable that grants a 1 hour +50% experience buff that also allows you to fix all roadside assistance issues without needing their respective tool. However, failing the skill check will still require you to tow the vehicle. It can be obtained from the Tebex /shop and is also planned to be awarded at future events.

Locations

There are 3 locations to go on duty. Only one is shown below (Mechanic Office).
