    Refuge encounters[]

    This type of random encounter, also known as a Hub encounter, was added with the Expeditions: The Pitt update. All of them take place within the Whitespring Refuge, and are much more complex than regular random encounters. They are technically both random encounters and miscellaneous quests; completing them rewards XP. There are 18 different Refuge encounters, categorized into four types: finding lost items, repairing a robot, settling a dispute, and taking photos.
