The Hive Star Wars Outlaws Quest

1. Meet with Ank and Qi'ra.

Qi'ra and Ank are waiting for you in a building located in the southwestern part of the city. Head there, approach the door and open it. A cutscene will start. Kay enters the building and talks with Qi'ra for a while about the motives that drive her. Ank hands Kay the bomb and tells her what to do after which Ank and Qi'ra leave the house.

2. Break into the stronghold.

Start by going through a gap in the wall in front of you and then follow the path ahead through a series of ice tunnels. After a while you will reach a large cave with a pair of generators in the middle.

Follow the only possible path forward. When you reach a fork in the path, turn left and climb up the wall in front of you. Climb the wall to the left and drop down to the platform. Use the grappling point to get to the other side of the chasm and then go through the hole in the rocks and continue along the path.

When you reach another large cave with a generator in the middle, use the grapple point and swing over to the platform on the other side of the gap. Then grab onto the wall and climb it to the left, onto the platform located there.

Jump over the crack and move on. You will reach a room with a large fan that cycles on and off. Wait until the fan stops and climb up the pipes sticking out of the wall, the grate and the ladder to the platform above.

Wait until the second fan stops, then run forward, jump over the rock on the left and climb up to the yellow grating.

Climb up to the ledge located higher. Turn around, and use the next grappling point to get to the rock ledge on the opposite side of the cave. Climb the wall higher up.

Use another grappling point to climb up to the platform located near the fan at the top.

To be able to leap to the other side you must stop the fan. To do this, switch your blaster to power mode and shoot the boulder on the other side. The boulder will crumble and reveal the shutter. Ask Nix to open the shutter and shoot the capacitor inside.

The fan will stop and you will be able to jump to the other side. Walk up to the stone wall and place a charge to blow it up. An explosion will occur and you will be able to move forward.

3. Infiltrate the stronghold.

Get rid of the guard on the other side of the breach.

Drop down through one of the two holes in the floor. You will reach the boiler room area.

Climb up the yellow grate to get to the higher level.

Enter the ventilation duct and continue through it.

4. Reach the control room.

Move forward and stick to the right wall so that the guard patrolling this part doesn't notice you.

As soon as he starts moving to the right, follow him and quietly bring him down.

Enter the room at the end of the passageway.

There you will find a switch that will allow you to disable the camera located over the door to the control room.

Step outside and approach the door to the control room. The guards and the droid in the middle of the room should not notice you.

Use the data spike to unlock the door and go inside.

5. Shut down the turrets.

You can get rid of the guard who is in the room in front of you with a stun shot.

To deactivate the energy barrier blocking access to the terminal you must destroy three capacitors. Energy conduits revealed by Nix's senses will show you where they are. The first one is located to the left of the barrier. Simply shoot it.

The next one is located under the ceiling behind a shutter. But before you can ask Nix to open it, you have to climb up. Start by climbing the yellow grate located on the wall to the right of the energy barrier.

Then walk along the handholds to the other side of the wall and jump down to the ledge that is located there.

Ask Nix to slide down the shutter and shoot the capacitor.

In order to shoot the last capacitor you have to climb to the platform on the other side of the room. In order for you to do this you must first ask Nix to press the button that releases the ladder.

Climb the ladder, look up and shoot the capacitor placed in the hole on the ceiling.

When the energy barrier is gone, approach the computer, slice it and disable the turrets.

6. Leave the area.

Exit through the door leading to the room you sneaked through earlier. Be prepared for a shootout, which is inevitable. Kay will automatically take cover behind a wall.

7. Defeat the attackers.

Start by quickly eliminating the two spiders that are running towards you. They will try to get closer to you and then explode which will cause serious damage. After a while more spiders will appear, there will be about ten of them in total.

You will also have to get rid of a battle droid and two guards.

8. Reach the cryochamber.

When you get rid of all opponents, you will be able to enter the room that was previously locked. There you will find a hole in the floor.

Drop down and then continue forward through the pipe, first under the broken fan and then leave the pipe through the hole on the left. Continue down the stairs. Cryochamber is located behind the next door.

9. Secure the cryochamber.

As soon as you go inside the shooting commences, probably the biggest one so far. You will have to kill a total of ten people, the well-armored or agents,...

...as well as one battle droid.

10. Retrieve the origin strand.

Approach the console standing in the center and take the origin strand.

11. Deliver the origin strand to the throne room.

Leave the cryochamber through the nearby door. Climb the wall on the right...

...and then go through the narrow passage in the wall. Enter the ventilation duct which will take you to the destroyed courtyard of Ashiga Fortress.

Head towards the throne room. When you reach the place then a cutscene will start. A confrontation takes place between the queen and Krisk. Each of them presents their arguments. At the end you have to decide who to give strand to.

• Give strand to Krisk - Krisk becomes the new queen. Your reputation with Crimson Dawn increases significantly and your reputation with Ashiga Clan does not change.
• Give strand to queen - Your reputation with Crimson Dawn decreases significantly and your reputation with Ashiga Clan increases significantly.

This quest ends, Ank Parako becomes a new member of your crew, you also receive a new blaster upgrade - Ank's Blaster Upgrade: Power Blast Kit.
