Dreg Town is one of the fanciest hives of scum and villainy in the galaxy. The futuristic city on the underside of an asteroid is a major base for the G3 Cartel in High On Life — you’ll have to raid this drug-riddled metropolis multiple times as you hunt down all the top officers of the criminal enterprise. Dreg Town also features some of the trickiest ludlox boxes to find in the game — with the complex layout of the city, ludloxes can be hidden miles above you, below you, or in some hidden compartment somewhere. I recommend coming back after you’ve collected every upgrade before even attempting to clean out your ludlox collection.

Ludloxes are special living loot chests that can be opened with the melee knife. They appear as blue marks on your HUD map. Opening them will reward you with a batch of pesos, which can be used to purchase upgrades from the pawnshop in Blim City.
Ludlox #1: Just as you enter the section of Dreg Town where violence is allowed, you’ll swing across a flying wasp. To the right, there’s a ludlox before entering the open section with warping bases and ziplines.
Ludlox #2: [x] Directly behind you as you enter the combat area of Dreg Town, turn around to spot a Ludlox on a very high ledge. You’ll need to be able to interact with metal walls to reach it.
Ludlox #3: Near the metal wall leading to the previous ludlox, there’s a volcani wall. Use Gus to grapple up to this high ludlox.
Ludlox #4: [x] And yet another is next to the metal wall. You’ll need to be able to disable forcefields to reach this last ludlox right at the start of the Dreg Town combat zone.
Ludlox #5: Entering the Memorial Court Road near Douglas’s Training Center, go left and look for a swinging bridge you can climb onto. Bounce a glob and continue to climb up to reach this high ludlox.
Ludlox #6: [x] From the previous ludlox, you can reach a volcanic wall with Gus’s trick launcher. You’ll need the jetpack upgrade to easily cross the distance.
Ludlox #7: Near the recruitment center, there’s a large vertical volcanic wall. Zip to the top by launching Gus’s secondary and circle around the rooftop to reach it.
Ludlox #8: Inside the Recruitment Center, go to the combat simulation arena. There’s a ludlox in the back container.
Ludlox #9: Solve the pipe puzzle in the Recruitment Center. After that, you’ll reach a pair of ziplines. Instead of going forward, you need to go backwards. Knock over the swinging wall with goop to reach this hidden ludlox.
Ludlox #10: At the end of the second pipe puzzle, there’s a hidden ludlox to the right of the exit door.
Ludlox #11: Leaving the second pipe puzzle, look on the wall to your left. There’s a volcanic wall here you can stick a Gus platform onto with his secondary fire. Use the wasps to zip up and grapple onto the hotwall, then jump around the corner.
Ludlox #12: Directly above the volcanic wall, there’s another ludlox on the high rooftop. You’ll need the jetpack upgrade or Sweezy to slow time and cross the large gap from the Dreg Town Town Center to the roof.
Ludlox #13: Just as you enter Town Center from the second pipe puzzle, you’ll find a spinning fan to the left. You’ll need to unlock the slow-motion time bubble secondary to reach it. You’ll circle back around to this location with your next weapon after completing the bounty.
Ludlox #14: There’s a main path with a raised bridge leading to the G3 Cartel office as you enter the Town Center. There’s a building off the town center with a grapple ledge on this path — grapple up to find this easy ludlox.
Ludlox #15: On the left side of the Town Center combat area, there’s a lowered swinging bridge. Bounce a glob to raise it up to crease a grapple ledge. Zip up and you’ll get access to the rooftop.
Ludlox #16: On the left side of the Town Center, look for a gate and a large billboard. There’s a hole in the gate — drop down and turn around to dodge into a small area below. There’s a hidden Ludlox down here.
Ludlox #17: Next to the hole in the gate / billboard we used to reach the previous Ludlox, there’s an easy-to-find one at the base of the building. No tricks to get this one.
Ludlox #18: On the right side of the cleft where flying cars are zipping by, there are two volcanic walls. Launch Gus’s secondary then launch a second one mid-jump to reach a hidden path. You’ll need to jump by three fans — the Ludlox is blocked by an NPC. Talk to them, then shoot green goo at the wall to the right to get them to move out of the way.
Ludlox #19: At the third pipe puzzle at Douglas’s Office, there’s a far-off ludlox on a tiny ledge to the left. You’ll need the jetpack upgrade to reach it.
Ludlox #20: Back at the Dreg Town portal, climb the metallic wall on the tall building with the spinning fan blades — it’s on the right side. Up top, you’ll hop onto another roof and find a wall of fans. Use slow-motion and Gus on the hotwall to climb up to the cliff with this ludlox.
Ludlox #21: Connect to the metallic wall with the magnetic boots upgrade and fight along the upside-down hanging buildings. A large ludlox is on one of the structures guarded by G3.
Ludlox #22: From those same buildings / magnetic wall, you can drop down onto the lower roof of the structure facing the portal.
Ludlox #23: At the crossing near the portal, climb onto the yellow building to get this ludlox. The jetpack upgrade makes this much easier.
Ludlox #24: From the previous ludlox, ride the zipline to the opposite side of the crossing. At the magnetic wall, there’s an open window into an apartment with this ludlox.
Ludlox #25: Continuing on from the previous ludlox, climb the magnetic wall to the top to find a ludlox on the high rooftop.
Ludlox #26: A tricky one. From the previous rooftop ludlox, there’s a splatform you can launch yourself from toward a skyscraper in the far distance. With the jetpack upgraded, you can launch yourself and reach this rooftop.
Ludlox #27: In the same area as the previous ludloxes, on the path to the back entrance to Douglas’s Office, there’s a high set of buildings with yellow pipes running between them. Climb up onto the platform you can only reach with the jetpack.
Ludlox #28: Cross the yellow pipes and jetpack up to the top of the even higher rooftop nearby to get this ludlox.
Ludlox #29: Revisiting Dreg Town Plaza, we can now freely explore the area. From the metro entrance, jetpack onto the building straight ahead, near the shortcut vent that takes you from the plaza to downtown.
Ludlox #30: In the Plaza, one can be found in a caged alley in the center of the plaza. Just cross through the middle and turn around at street level.
Ludlox #31: One is down the alleyway directly to the right as you enter from the metro.
Ludlox #32: And another is directly above. Jetpack up onto the building roof near the alleyway. There’s a small awning with this ludlox that can only be reached with an upgraded jetpack.
Ludlox #33: Take the stairs up in the middle of the plaza. On the right, there’s an open doorway.
Ludlox #34: Directly beneath the previous ludlox. Drop down to street level and find it down some stairs.
Ludlox #35: Look up as you continue through the plaza — on the upper right wall there’s a metallic wall you can magnetize onto. It leads to a rooftop with a ludlox.
Ludlox #36: Found above the Krust Lord sign, very high up on a purple awning. You’ll need to use the metallic wall and a jetpack upgrade to get high enough.
