Quest Group: Syndicate Quests
Planet: Akiva
Prerequisites: To play this quest, you must first complete the quest The Droidsmith.
To unlock this quest, you must finish The Droidsmith quest. Once you have done that, you will receive a message from ND-5 to meet with Surat Nuat in his office at the Alcazar cantina in Akiva. Surat Nuat will want you to find a person cheating at betting on fathier races in his cantina.
Something strange is going on at the Alcazar's fathier tables. Surat Nuat has hired Kay to find a suspiciously lucky winner and figure out how they put their thumb on the scales.
Head to the fathier table at the Alcazar and talk to one of the gamblers. He will tell you the name of a certain lucky gambler - Weirla - and where you should go to continue your search.
The area you need to go to will be marked on the map, go there. It is located in the Satrap's Promenade district. Talk to the mechanic and technician standing next to the repair shop. You will learn from them where you can find Weirla.
The place you need to go to is in an area of the city controlled by Pykes. If your reputation with this faction is at least good, then you will have no problems getting there, the guards watching the entrance gates will let you through. However, if you don't have such a reputation then you will have to sneak in and not be seen by the guards patrolling the area. You can sneak into the area controlled by Pykes unnoticed from the left / west side.
There you will find handles sticking out from the building's wall, which you can climb over to the other side.
Silently get rid of the guard patrolling the area on the other side of the map.
Being careful not to be spotted by the guards patrolling the main courtyard, go down the stairs, open the door and enter the building.
In the Pyke Sabacc parlor you don't have to sneak around, even when your reputation is low. Just walk up to the bar and listen to the conversation. After a while, Weirla will receive a message and walk outside.
Go out into the courtyard and hide in the tall grass. Weirla will walk around the other side of the courtyard. Send Nix to steal the tablet.
The datapad will tell you where Weirla is to meet with her partners.
Just leave the district controlled by Pykes. If you sneaked through here, use the same route just the other way. Kay will contact Surat by radio and tell him what she has found out.
Use the fast travel option and transfer to the Trailblazer. Hop on the speeder and head to the place marked on the map. When you reach the farm, climb up the nearby hill and approach the place pointed by the marker on the compass.
A short cutscene starts. Weirla meets with an unidentified stranger. Kay observes this meeting through binoculars and decides to eavesdrop on what they are talking about.
Go towards the west and quietly get rid of the guard watching the area from above.
Descend the hill and walk to a clump of tall grass located right next to the door.
Listen to the conversation that is occurring inside the building.
Leave the area. Kay will contact Surat by radio and tell him what she has learned. ND-5 will hint where you should look for further information.
You need to reach the datapad that is located on the landing pad. If you have at least a good reputation with Pykes it will be a trivial task, none of the guards will bother you. You can get there by Trailblazer or ride a speeder. The place where the landing pad is located is marked on the image below.
If you don't have enough reputation with the Pykes, you can try to reach the proximity of the landing pad via the road from the east side and then use the grappling hook and metal handles and climb the rocks to the top of the hill. Then you can try to sneak onto the landing pad. Since you will encounter a fair number of moving guards along the way, this will not be an easy task and will probably end up fighting them.
The datapad lies on wooden pallets located next to a small ship standing on the landing pad. When you read it you will learn the details of the scam and a clue about the next race.
Return to the Alcazar cantina, approach the fathier racing table and place a bet. Since you know the winner then place the maximum possible bet on him. I don't know if this tip is random, in my case the winner was supposed to be a participant from Corellia.
Head to Surat's office. Before you get there a Pyke representative will approach you. He will offer to pay you double, if you do not reveal the secret to Surat. He will give you 200 credits in advance.
Enter the office and talk to Surat. You will have to decide whether to reveal the whole truth to him or keep it from him.
This quest objective will appear only if you have not told Surat everything you have learned. Just leave the cantina. Pykes will contact you by radio and you will receive 2000 credits and your reputation with them will increase significantly after which this quest will end.
