"What."
Just follow the group.
(basically, the entire dome is filled with an ash like snow substance thats always blowing around. On the edges of the dome it's moving slowly and isn't dangerous but as you near the center of the dome and the centeral building, the speed of the "Snow" (It's not really snow, it just looks like it) flurries increases and the electrical discharge that leaps between individual flakes increases in intensity. Imagine it like a hurricane: the outer edges are quieter but everything gets more intense as you move toward the center. However the actual center itself is calm.)
"Just by carrying it, we'd probably be zapped. And I'm not sure about the building idea either... Maybe we can make some kind of farraday cage..."
Try to think of ways to bypass the electric cloud of death. Take a careful look at the thing, and how it interacts with the buildings and the surroundings.
(Keep in mind rolling low int's doesn't stop you from using your own ideas, just stops me from giving you some)

Uh...nope, got nothing.
As per the cloud itself, it could probably be more accurately called a solid wall of thickening blizzard. The amount of "snow" around has been slowly increasing, both in quantity how much it's moving around, as you traveled closer to the center, but from this point on it's making exponential leaps. You can see the top of the central tower poking out of that storm but much of the body and the ground route to it are completely enshrouded in this strange storm of electrical discharging ash. From what you can see it's flowing over and between buildings without damaging them, even though the electrical discharges are crackling across their surfaces almost constantly. Maybe they're specially built to withstand it around here? You also note, with some degree of relief, that the only robots you can see around are what you assume are hunters buzzing around near the top of the central tower like angry hornets.
[intuition: 5]
You have the distinct feeling that they could prove a rather large problem in the future. Chances are they haven't forgotten your gutting of that builder and definitely not your killing of that other hunter. And You're willing to bet they're not terribly forgiving.
Duck inside the nearest building then ready my rifle.
You duck through the nearest building and ready your rifle as the things skitter by, their feet clicking with a light, tinny sound. You listen as they pass but then something happens: One of them stops in front of the building You're in.
"Better than nothing."
Continue onto the objective by myself.
You drag yourself forward, hobbling along poorly but still making progress. You make it to the intersection of 8 and F.
