Overview

GATE Scientist Bobblehead is a collectible bobblehead item found in the Control Center of the Cascade Laboratories. The item is described in-game as one of GATE’s brightest minds and is located in a rooftop/vent area above a server room inside the Control Center. The server room is inhabited by a roaming Breacher and the surrounding area contains active turrets that must be disabled to safely reach the nearby interiors.

The standard route begins in the server room above which a vent leads upward. After disabling the turrets in the Control Center, head into the server room and clear or avoid the Breacher. Above the server room an access vent can be reached by using elevation aids: place a Jump Pad or a Ramp (Small) to reach the vent entrance. Inside the vent, place climbable furniture such as a Small Shelf to gain additional height; if you have either the Gravity Dampener or the Dangling Gravity Cube equipped, you can jump higher from the furniture and continue up through the vent to exit onto the roof where the bobblehead sits.

Several alternate approaches exist depending on your resources and preferred risk level. A Barrel can be positioned on the raised area near a section of broken floor and used as the secondary boost instead of furniture if placed correctly. From the outside you can also construct a ramp using a Ramp (Small) combined with Bridges to scale up to the roof area directly. If you have a Dangling Gravity Cube you can sprint-jump off a nearby railing to reach the roof; using a Jump Pad in conjunction with that maneuver reduces the risk of failing the jump.

Practical notes and concise tips:

  • Disable the turrets in the Control Center before attempting to access the server room; this reduces incoming fire and makes the approach safer.
  • Expect a roaming Breacher inside the server room; clear or distract it before spending time building or arranging objects.
  • If you lack high-jump equipment, use environmental objects (Barrel, Small Shelf) and Ramp (Small) + Bridges to create a climbable path from outside.
  • The Gravity Dampener and Dangling Gravity Cube significantly simplify vertical traversal inside the vent; prioritize them if you plan to collect multiple high-up pickups.
  • Use a Jump Pad to make the railing sprint-jump method safer and to reduce the chance of needing to rebuild the approach.
