Talos Outpost is a location in Deep Caverns.

Description

Talos is a remote old Biocorp outpost of the Hollow Earth research complex. It is located in the eastern reaches of Deep Caverns, beyond warehouse blocks and near Arke geothermal power station. Its original purpose is unknown, but it does not appear to have been a research facility. It now serves as a base for the Faceless forces fighting against Tchortists in Deep Caverns.

Reputation with the Faceless

Talking with the outpost's commander and allowing your mind to be read will potentially allow you to receive several batches of W2C ammo or grenades, as well as healing items. Whether the Faceless consider you an ally depends on acts previously committed in the game. See befriend the Faceless for details.

-Talking to the commander and allowing your mind to be read will potentially allow you to receive several batches of W2C ammo or grenades, as well as healing items. Whether the Faceless consider you an ally depends on acts previously committed in the game. You need +3 net positive acts for friendly status, +2 for neutral, and hostile for less than that. In the latter case it's recommended not to talk to the commander at all, as turning Faceless hostile in DC spawns an endless amount of stealth-equipped [[Faceless Gaunt]]s.

-* [[Rail Crossing]] encounter with [[Buzzer]] - '''+1''' for allowing to kill him, '''no change''' for persuading to leave him alone, '''-1''' for killing the Mindreader (other members of the group not taken into account, neither are the robots)
-* The [[Faceless recon]] encounter near Foundry - '''+1''' for telling the truth, otherwise unknown–the patch notes say fighting them results in '''always-hostile''' reputation
-* Fighting the endless reinforcements at the [[Core City]] blockade - '''always hostile'''
-* Rescuing the captive near the [[Recover tunneler|tuneller]] in Core City and offering healing supplies - '''+1'''
-* Institute invasion force in the [[West Wing]] - Unknown, freeing aforementioned captive allows to avoid combat
