Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Black Vulkar Base

Sewers
The elevator from the Upper Sewers takes you to the north end of a room in the northeast corner of the Black Vulkar Base. You can return there if you need to transit back to your hideout or change your party selection.

A standard door to the south opens on the east end of an east-west corridor which turns north around a corner to the west. It's patrolled by a Vulkar Patrol Droid, which may not be visible if it's turned the corner.

This east-west corridor has three standard doors on each side. The left door in the south wall (opposite the elevator) opens on another corridor to the south around the perimeter of the Rec Room, which turns west into the Armory and patrolled by another Vulkar Patrol Droid.

Garage Security
Go down the east-west corridor to the west and around the corner to the north and you'll see a standard door in the west wall at its north end: do not open it yet, as beyond is the security system guarding the garage elevator. There's a security panel to the left of this door:

You now know you can disarm the turrets using the main terminal (found opposite the Armory door) or a pass card (carried by two Vulkar Lieutenants in the barracks).

You receive experience for using the main terminal but none for using the passcard (aside from that received for killing the Vulkar Lieutenants and their guards). However, it's possible to receive much more by destroying the turrets with grenades. Enter Solo Mode and open the door, then run back across the corridor to the opposite wall. You can now see three Defense Turrets at the west end of the room beyond, but you should be out of range.

They have On Hit: Instant Death and you cannot attack them without being within range of their hits. However, you can throw grenades at them from beyond their range, and those thrown at the center turret will hit all three. Ion Grenades are ideal, and it will take 2-4 (most likely 3) to kill them: two can be found in a metal box in the Armory, while Kebla Yurt in the Upper City South sells from an infinite supply for 130 credits each.

Garage Elevator
After dealing with the turrets in Garage Security, open the Garage Elevator in the north wall and go down to the garage. Once again you won't be able to transit back to your hideout or change your party selection, so return to the Sewers or Undercity if need be.

Control Room
This isn't necessary, although on your very first playthrough it does inform you where to find a pass card, and it gives you an opportunity to move closer to the dark side of the Force. The Control Room is behind a security door in the south wall of the corridor leading west out of the Armory chamber.

The door can also be unlocked by using the main terminal against the north wall opposite the Armory, for which you receive experience. Inside is a Twi'lek male Black Vulkar.

He surrenders after being hit, allowing you to question him:

You can choose whether to let him live or not.

If you don't enter the Control Room before completing the search for Bastila, he won't be here if you return.

There's also a footlocker in the southeast corner of the room with random contents.

Disabled Sentry
Open the middle door in the north wall of the east-west corridor to reveal a room with supplies to the left.

There's also a Disabled Sentry to the right.

It uses weak melee attacks and only patrols between its starting point and the west end of the corridor, returning before it even reaches the corner, so repairing it is of limited use except for receiving experience.

The entrance to the room beyond the left door in the north wall of the east-west corridor is mined.

There are more supplies to the right.

Armory
The Armory is the central hub of the Black Vulkar Base. The most direct route to it is through the right door in the south wall of the east-west corridor into the kitchen of the Rec Room then through its west door, although it's better to go through the left door in the south wall of the east-west corridor and go down the corridor to the south and west until you emerge into the Armory chamber.

The Armory itself is in the middle of this chamber, and a Black Vulkar patrols clockwise around it. Black Vulkar information yellow, Blaster Pistol

The door to the Armory is in its north wall, flanked by a Vulkar Sentry droid on each side, identical in all but name to the Vulkar Patrol Droids you should already have encountered.

As you'd expect, the door is locked.

The door can also be unlocked by using the main terminal opposite against the north wall, for which you receive experience. Inside you'll find a metal box to the left, and footlockers to the right and center.

Security Panel
The security panel opposite the Armory against the north wall is the main terminal which can be used to override Garage Security.

All doors on this level of the Black Vulkar Base are unlocked and opened if you open all security doors. Overloading the power conduit in the Barracks kills both Vulkar Lieutenants and all but one of six Black Vulkars, making it much easier to get the pass card needed to disarm the turrets guarding the garage elevator. Shutting down the garage elevator security system instead gives you experience, but not as much as killing the turrets yourself with grenades.

Otherwise, uploading area schematics may be useful on your first playthrough, and overloading the terminal is not recommended, as it results in 1,000 electrical damage to everyone in the vicinity.

Rec Room
The middle door in the south wall of the east-west corridor opens onto a bar. A Vulkar Bartender stands to the left, while a Bouncer Droid stands in the northwest and southwest corners.

A standard door at the south end of the bar opens onto the corridor around the southeast perimeter of the rec rooms, while one in the west wall opens into a dining area containing another Bouncer Droid identical to those found in the bar, except it has Awareness 102.

This area also contains a footlocker by the west wall with random contents, and a waitress with whom you can speak.

Once you've asked any questions you want answered, you'll move closer to the light or dark side of the Force depending on how you end the dialog.

She has no armor or weapons, so she can't put up much of a fight.

If you don't speak to her before completing the search for Bastila, she won't be here if you return.

This dining area also has a standard door in its south wall which opens onto the corridor around the southeast perimeter of the Rec Room, and another in its north wall which opens into a kitchen containing a Vulkar Cook who is identical to the Vulkar Bartender in the bar.

This kitchen has a standard door in its west wall which opens onto the northeast corner of the Armory chamber, and another in its north wall which opens onto the east-west corridor along the north perimeter of the Rec Room (the right door in the south wall of this corridor).
