Just how does her questline work? I'm supposed to encounter her in "Utopia Loading Bay" for a final fourth encounter, but you find her dead waaaaaaaaaaay earlier than that?

You have to keep giving her scrap along the way. And then the last time you meet her you need to give her more scrap and The Equalizer if you stole it from her place.

For me third time was last both times i did this chain. When i gave her scrap instead of weapon, Hobbs was still alive when i returned to cpb and could warn him. Mikey body stolen from hideout and Traitor wrote all over walls. When i returned weapon, well, he's dead. And she's dead in her hideout.

give her no scraps at all, never!
enter her hideout in RnD ( toxic area in the very beginning )

jo - get the equalizer

give her 5k scraps in central production B ( in beginnin of the toxicwaste area ), befor doing biolabs area.
give her 10k scraps in central production B ( below big sister ), befor killing big sister.
dont enter her hideout
give her 15k scraps on top of RnD
dont enter her hideout
look for hobbs inront of central production B medbay n pick up weapon
you now may enter her hideout

So... she will ask for 15K even if she dont need to remake her hammer. Guess its easier to script that way.

I would like to helpfully point out she is frustratingly easy to miss and it seems it is easy to trigger her moving to the next area before you give her the scrap.

NG+ and I missed her again :( NG++ I'm just going to have to use a guide so I don't miss her a thrid time. At least in NG+ i got the sunglasses.
