The NuCaloric Contract is the first contract you can undertake in the game Marathon. This quest requires you to acquire the NuCal Employee ID and use it to download the employee data, all in a single run. While this may sound challenging, with the right guidance, you can easily complete this quest.
To begin the Introducing NuCaloric Contract in Marathon, head to the Perimeter map and locate the contract in the columns area to the south. Before starting the quest, make sure you are well-equipped with the best weapons and enough ammo, as you will encounter Ticks in and around the objective building.
The objectives of this contract are to acquire the NuCal Employee ID and download the employee data. Here is a step-by-step walkthrough to help you complete the contract:
Acquire NuCal Employee ID:
After picking up the contract, head to the building infested with Ticks and their nests. You cannot enter through the main door, so make your way to the back where you will find a ladder to climb up. Once on top, break open the closed vent and drop down into the building.
Inside, you will find a console panel next to a closed door. Interact with the panel to reactivate the power, unlocking the door to access the room. Be cautious as there are Ticks inside that you need to eliminate before proceeding. Open the door to the connected room and clear out any remaining threats. The NuCal Employee ID will be on a table to your left, pick it up to move on to the next objective.
Download Employee data:
In the next room, locate the computer terminal and connect to it. Interact with the terminal to start downloading the employee data. After a few seconds, the download will complete, and you will see the message confirming the ID as Dr. Tobias Luttero. This marks the successful completion of the Introducing NuCaloric Contract in Marathon.
