After meeting with Abram in Core City, Jack Quicksilver has some tasks for you. This one is a murder investigation.
Objectives
- Meet Lenox Pierce in South Gate Station.
- Patrick Pierce, a mechanic who resided in SGS was found dead in his room some time ago. Cause of death is unknown, but Lenox, Pat's brother is not pleased with the response from SGS and wants you to investigate and learn how Pat died.
Walkthrough
Head back to your home station. You'll find Lenox in the cantina, at the same corner table where you first met Jack Quicksilver. He'll give you Patrick Pierce's Room Key. Go check his room in the private quarters level. You'll find a Morgue Keycard. Use it to enter the mortuary on medical level and check the console for patient records. You will out many interesting details about the residents of SGS. You can also examine Pat's body in one of the morgue drawers and directly discover the cause of his death with high biology skill.
Talk to people about Patrick and you will learn that he worked for Core City's Praetorian Security before coming to SGS. Head to Core City for more info. Jon the Beautiful can help you, but he wants food as usual - a very expensive Jon's Special this time. Go to Moe near the lower level elevator, buy the special and give it to Jon for information. You'll learn about Operation Banishment and Spectres. Ask Oskar about them, he has a document about them. You can either buy the information or persuade/intimidate it out of him for free. Read the document and pay attention to the name list and the killing methods employed by the spectres, these will match with information you learnt at SGS morgue. You may also pickpocket the guilty person to find further evidence: a Spectre Insignia.
Once you think you know who the murderer is, head back to Lenox and present your evidence to him. You can also confront Mordre directly, which will lead to him attacking you, refusing to talk any more or fleeing the scene, depending on how the conversation goes.
Once Lenox has the answers he was seeking for, head back to Jack Quicksilver in Core City for your monetary reward.
- Biology skill is unnecessary in this quest cause you can't find Mordre's motive to tell Lenox but have to get Spectres info from Core City, after you learn how Spectres kill people, you can just ask Pasquale to autopsy again to get clue. But if you insist doing it yourself, your biology skill needs 100.
- Join Praetorian Security and become senior enforcer can get Patrick's and Spectres' info for free. But in that case, you have to complete three quests for Praetorian Security, and win 7 times at Arena. You'll not have enough authority to get these info when you are just a enforcer.
- You can frame Big Bret in this quest and Lenox is going to kill Big Bret, but he is too drunk to fight so Bret will kill him, and you'll lose the further opportunity to get the quest Meet Azif.
- Pickpocketing Mordre's Spectre Insignia is also unnecessary, but if you insist, the Pickpocket skill requirement is 91 without feat.
- Jon the Beautiful will tell you someone have been ask him about Patrick's info two month ago, and the appearance is very similar to Mordre, but it can't use as an evidence.
- Confronting Mordre directly needs 90 Persuasion to let him confess and lead to fight with him. 95 Persuasion can let him leave without fighting. Remember you can't just gun him down without let him confess or whole SGS turn hostile.
- Another way to kill Mordre without conversation and not to turn whole SGS hostile is trap, use lots of Frag or HE traps and set TNT to detonate can kill him, but you'll have to cut the cost on traps from his loot.
- Fight against Mordre might become very difficult for low health and low initiative player, because he has one random high quality sniper rifle and random high quality energy shield, his Aimed Shot could be extreme deadly. Try use Morphine Shot and shield up before confront him to avoid instant death, or simply load a few times.
