You mean that you first have to wait for a random moment where the charging stations is visible and then ALSO have to wait for a random moment where you can actually charge? Edit: It was visible just now but there was no option to pay for charging. This thing is bugged.

Stuck at this quest with no way to charge my energy cells. Enough spare parts but the charging station in Bondo's Yard shows no option for charging. Other NPC's that should give me questlines that apparently need to be finished first are nowhere to be seen. Is this bugged?

Description

<Prince Erazmin sifts through the resources you both collected.> Yes... This appears to be sufficient material to repair that drill rig. I'll do what I can with the parts that I have, but you will need to complete the repairs with yours. When you're ready, return to that broken drill rig we found and open it up. Together, we'll have it up and running in no time.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
