New Haven - Old Haven Walkthrough
Mission: Smoke Signals: Investigate Old Haven
This mission comes from Helena in New Haven. You can reach Old Haven from Rust Commons East. When you get inside, examine the situation to cash in this quest and get your next right here. When you enter New Haven, you should also stay along the north wall and get the Bandit Treasure mission from a corpse to conserve time.

Mission: Smoke Signals: Shut Them Down
Head into Old Haven and prepare for a brawl. This is the time to bust out the corrosive weapons (and artifact). Even if their base stats aren't as powerful, the corrosive element is really effective against the heavily armored enemies here. If you have to rough it without the elemental attacks, you're going to have a hard time, but it can be done. Strafing left can help you get around their big shields. There are turrets stationed at a few positions, and they can be quite a nuisance as well. In the south, you won't be able to get close to them, so rockets or corrosive bullets may be your only hope. The others you can get in shotgun range of.
Your first goal is to sweep through the city and knock out four different smoke signal locations. You can generally look up to see them, but we've marked their locations below.
You can roll a couple more objectives into your patrol here, and you should, so by all means, read ahead.
Mission: Claptrap Rescue
In the southeast, near the Junkyard, you can find a building with a Claptrap in it, marked below.
To get the kit, go up the stairs of the building south of where you see the mission marker. From there you can jump north to the roof of the adjacent building and find the kit in a room by itself.

Mission: Not Without My Claptrap
This mission, obtained from Patricia Tannis, is very easy to roll into the Smoke Signals mission. Near the southern signal, there's a small switchbox that will free a Claptrap. That's all there is to it.
Bandit Treasure: Three Corpses, Three Keys
When you first enter the Old Haven area, you can stay along the north side, and at the center part of the north border, there's a corpse against the wall. Examine it to get this mission, which is nicely parallel to the others. The first key is right by the corpse, so you only really have to seek out two.
The others are in the east and south, and they're fairly out in the open, so this is an easy enough mission if you're already working on the others. When you have all three keys bring them back to the north and open the door and examine the map.
Mission: Bandit Treasure: X Marks the Spot
Beam over to Lucky's in the Dahl Headleand, and head to the northeast. If you look down at the edge of the cliff, you can see a small tin shack. Open it to claim your prize.
