You will find the Anti-Acide Gel Xenotech Blueprint after killing the Xenomorph queen before you reach the Cerberus terminal on the Command Level. Unlike the Berkely’s Dock mission, you must kill this Xenomorph queen to progress the objective, making this Xenotech Blueprint unmissable. The location of the Xenomorph Queen has been marked with an orange arrow. The Anti-Acid Gel ignores the damage done to Armor by Acid Burst attacks.
