Here is the Dead Island 2 A Hero’s Journey side quest guide which will help you find and rescue Burt and Rita who are currently trapped under the Pier. You will also need to get Burt’s torp which holds his mojo. Before you can access the, A Hero’s Journey side quest you will firstly need to complete the Coast Guardian side quest in Venice Beach then travel over to The Pier where you can then begin A Hero’s Journey. For me, I left every side quest in Dead Island 2 until after I completed the main story so keep pushing through until later areas become available where you will then have a lot of powerful weaponry and skills to help you through the game.

Quest giver: Approach Burt and Rita under the Pier.
Rewards: 3,000 XP, Guardian Perk, Machete.
Head under the Pier to the North West of The Pier district, deal with the zombies if they aggro and mantle up to the scaffold using the boxes where you can speak with Burt who has seen better days.

After the dialogue, head to the East side of The Pier region and go through the security gate after dealing with any Runners who have chased you across the beach then smash the fragile boxes in between the white toilet blocks.

Go through to the porta-potties avoiding the Burster who is waiting for who and collect Burt’s Torp from the middle of the area where you will then be ambushed by a decent amount of zombies and a Crusher. You can either take them all out or lure then out of the passage then run, either way, go back to Lifeguard HQ.

Speak with Rita in Lifeguard HQ who will tell you Burt is in trouble again so leave Lifeguard HQ and run to the lifeguard hut where you will need to take down a heavy amount of zombies including Butchers, Slobbers and elemental zombies.

Go in to the lifeguard hut and speak with Burt until he passes away leaving you a nice Machete as a parting gift as the Dead Island 2 A Hero’s Journey side quest guide concludes.
