Treasure Map A2 sits early in Dying Light: The Beast’s campaign loop and points to a familiar generator-and-cable puzzle. You can grab the map and even reach the reward room — but a bug currently stops the final interaction, leaving the prize out of reach.

Treasure Map A2 location (Chimneys Tower, Industrial Park)

You’ll pass through the Industrial Park during the main mission “A New Strain.” Look for the Chimneys Tower safe spot: climb the first chimney, then cross the gap to the adjacent stack to find the A2 map on top. Activating the safe spot here makes return trips painless while you scout the route to the reward.

Treasure Map A2 reward route (fenced factory side, flooded access)

The A2 reward destination is at the side of a factory, tucked behind fencing with a submerged entry. The intended path brings you into a small interior with a couple of zombies and a generator.

From the fenced perimeter, follow this high-level route:

  • Spot the blue pipe and a ground-level opening behind the fence; climb over and drop in.
  • Swim through the flooded section, then take a left through a door into maintenance corridors.
  • Open the vent, crawl through, and keep left to exit the waterlogged space.
  • You’ll surface into a small room with two zombies and the generator that’s meant to power the objective.

Under normal treasure map logic, this room would kick off a familiar sequence: power up the generator and pull a cable to a nearby fuse box to unlock the stash. That’s the sticking point right now.

Treasure Map A2 generator/cable bug (status and symptoms)

Multiple players report that the generator in the A2 reward room cannot be activated, or the cable cannot be picked up even after power is on. In some cases, the prompt reads “currently unpowered” despite reaching the generator; in others, the generator starts but the cable interaction never appears. As of now, this prevents completing A2’s reward step.

There’s no reliable workaround in-game. If you want the map checked off, you can still:

  • Unlock the Chimneys Tower safe spot and collect the A2 map.
  • Clear the flooded route and room to familiarize yourself with the layout for later.

But you should expect to wait for a game update to finish the cable connection and claim the reward.

At-a-glance: A2 essentials

Item Details
Region Industrial Park (reached during “A New Strain”)
Map pickup Chimneys Tower safe spot — climb one chimney, cross to the other, grab the map on top
Reward area Fenced side of a factory, underwater entry to a small interior room
Route highlights Blue pipe and ground opening → swim → left through door → vent crawl → room with two zombies and a generator
Known issue Generator won’t power or cable can’t be pulled (“currently unpowered” message or missing cable prompt)
Workaround None reliable; wait for a fix to complete the objective

What you can do now

If you’re focused on treasure maps and secret stashes, move on to other entries while A2’s cable interaction remains blocked. The A1 and A3 routes are accessible and follow the same generator-to-fuse-box format without the A2-specific bug. When a patch lands, you’ll be able to fast travel back to Chimneys Tower and finish A2 quickly since the approach is already scoped in.

Note: If you’ve already explored the flooded path and cleared the zombies, the only missing piece is the generator/cable interaction. Return later and retry the prompt after an update.

Treasure Map A2 is one of the cleaner climbs in The Beast and a straightforward puzzle once it functions as intended. For now, bank the map, learn the route, and spend your time on the other treasure leads — you’ll be ready to plug in the moment the fix arrives.
