Chapter 2: Indigenous Creatures

Collectible (1/2): At the start of the chapter, after crossing a narrow rock bridge over a small body of water, keep an eye out for a vine wall to your left. Use the Lancer's chainsaw bayonet or some normal melee attacks to through the vines. The collectible (Gears Journal) is on the ground in front of the Grindlift here.

Collectible (2/2): You eventually climb a ladder and reach an area with a bunch of Drones and two Troika surrounded by sandbags. After the first batch of Drones you then have to face a Reaver.

Chapter 4: Sinking Feeling

Collectible (1/2): Near the start of the chapter after killing the two Bloodmounts, keep an eye on the right side of the street for a small area that holds an ammo box (it's just before the ash-covered sports car). Hop over the low wall here and you'll come to an area with an upside-down car, some ammo, and a Gorgon Pistol. The collectible (Ilima City Help-Wanted Ad) is on the ground next to the upside-down car.

Collectible (2/2): After the cutscene with Carmine, hug the wall on the left (but avoid the green spikes) and look for the collectible (COG Tag) in the corner. You should have just activated a checkpoint recently, so it's not a big deal if you don't find it before the wall of debris reaches you. If you die after picking it up you won't need to pick it up.
