How to get a slicing kit in Star Wars Outlaws

The intel points you toward Crimson Dawn territory. The easiest way to get through this next part is by being on good terms with the Dawn, so if you sided with the Pykes so far, you may want to consider completing some contract work that’ll raise your reputation with Crimson Dawn.

Or you can just sneak in, via an entrance near the restaurant at the northern end of Mirogana’s market. Either way, make your way to the landing pad once you’re inside. This is a restricted area unless your reputation is “excellent,” so you’ll have to climb up over some rails on the side to get in unnoticed.

Chat with the man there to start Aila’s quest.

Star Wars Outlaws: Aila’s quest

Aila’s quest is a solid introduction to slicing and infiltration in general. Follow the quest marker to a small Imperial outpost, where you’ll grab the sequencer she needs.

Then, make your way to the larger Imperial Forward Base. Sneak inside by climbing over one of the walls, which, as Kay helpfully tells you, you can do by clambering up the rocks overlooking the compound.

Getting spotted in a compound is a good way to get overwhelmed, so opt for stealth takedowns and judicious uses of Kay’s stun gun and Nix’s help.

The quest marker leads you to Aila, though you’ll have to pick two locks to get there. Our Star Wars Outlaws lockpicking guide has some tips for how that works, if you’re struggling. Speak with Aila inside, and exit via the vent at the end of the room. Slice the terminal as she instructed to activate the compound’s defense turrets, and get out of there however you see fit. Since escape is your goal, it’s no big deal if you get spotted. You can even use your new kit to remove Kay’s wanted status if things get out of hand.
