The Tannis Lab Puzzles are a set of tasks you have to complete during the Angels and Speed Demons quest. These can be especially frustrating in the later stages, so difficult to complete that you might want to let the Calypso Twins win.
Updated April 11, 2023: We've gone through this guide and updated it for accuracy and readability to make sure you can solve these dastardly puzzles.
Where To Find The Tannis Puzzles
Before you can solve them, you first have to know where to find the Tannis Puzzles. They are located in Angel's Light, which is found inside of Konrad's Hold on Pandora, a place you’ll visit during the 'Angels and Speed Demons' quest, which can also be found on Pandora.
Keep in mind that you should be at least level 35, to do this quest efficiently.
To get to Tannis’s lab, you first need to travel to Konrad’s Hold by using the Arrogant Approach fast travel station. You will be fighting Tinks and Varkids, so come with your best weapons for the job. Trek northacross a rail yard until three waypoints show up.
These three waypoints are broken levers with mine carts loaded with gas canisters located behind them. Shoot those until you blow a hole open and keep moving until you reach an elevator in the Bleedout Smithy.
You’re not supposed to take the elevator down; instead, shoot theloose red piping, which will cause it to fall and break the floor open. Continue moving underground until you reach a minecart that can be ridden by melee bashing them.
You will have to fight off some Varkids and hit the cart one last time until the way to the lab is open, and you will enter Angel’s Light.
Solving The Tannis Lab Puzzles
Now comes the part you’ve been waiting (and shooting) for. To begin the puzzles, shoot thefour couplings on the reactors to cause them to spark, which signals the beginning of the puzzles.
Once inside you will notice two consoles, one larger and another smaller. The large console presents a puzzle where you have to turn the four lights from red to green by pressing the red buttons. However, this is a trap, and there is no way to activate this console; trying every conceivable order to the buttons will yield nothing.
You’re supposed to do this on a different console to the right, where you will be able to solve the puzzle so you can open a draw bridge.
Head to the small panel on the other side of the bridge.Follow the path until you reach a large lever marked by two bright yellow arrows, and pull it to have the reactor teleport across the room. You must wait a bit for the teleportation to happen, but once it does, you will have solved The Tannis Puzzles in Borderlands 3.
