Unlock All Four Colonia Engineers (Brandon, Hicks, Olmanova, Dorn)

The Colonia engineers unlock grind.

In this video, we’ll cover the most efficient way to unlock all four Colonia based engineers, Mel Brandon, Marsha Hicks, Petra Olmanova and Etienne Dorn. This will give us access to Grade 4 shield cell banks and Grade 5 life support, only available in Colonia, as well as access to a total of 4 additional pinned blueprints. Assuming you have the necessary engineering materials to roll 4 modules to full Grade 5, this process should take just under 5 hours.
