Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Ruins: Difference between revisions

==Exit==

If you enter from the plains beyond the [[../Courtyard#Strange Ruins|courtyard]] outside the Jedi enclave without Bastila in your party, the [[../Getting Started#Party|party selection screen]] opens and she is automatically added. If you try to remove her:

;This character must be a member of your party at this time.

Otherwise, you cannot change party selection or [[../Dantooine#Ebon Hawk|return to ''Ebon Hawk'']] once inside the ruins. The exit is beyond the north door behind you after you enter, with another door at the south end of the entrance hall.

==Investigate Ruins==

Beyond the south door of the entrance hall is an ancient droid standing in the middle of a square chamber with doors to the south, east and west. It tries to communicate with you as you enter:

{{KotOR/Dialog|Bastila||

|Dialog=Maybe the droid has more information we can use. It seems to respond to you; perhaps you should ask it something else.|C=2}}

You will be finding Nemo's remains in the northeast corner:

{{KotOR/Container| Nemo's Remains|

*{{KotOR|Upgrade items|Crystal, Sigil}}

*{{KotOR|Robes|Jedi Knight Robe}}, Blue}}

;[This door is sealed with an ancient mechanism.]

The south door remains locked, so your only other options are the {{KotOR|Ruins|Exit}} to the ruins or to open the west and east doors.

*{{KotOR|Shields|Environment Shield Level 1}}

*{{KotOR|Plating|Droid Light Plating Type 2}}

*{{KotOR|Sensors|Droid Motion Sensors Type 1}} }}

Both active droids begin by using {{KotOR|Shields|Energy Shield Level 2}}, absorbing the first 30 points of energy damage. However, even when shields are down they have {{KotOR|Combat|Damage Resistance}}: Resist 15/- vs. Energy, so energy weapons (most {{~|Blaster pistols|blaster pistols}}, {{~|Blaster rifles|blaster rifles}}, {{~|Heavy weapons|heavy weapons}} and {{~|Lightsabers|lightsabers}}) are still ineffective.

However, you can return the favor if you or Bastila are character level > 8 and have Improved {{~|Force powers|Energy Resistance}}, as this trivializes all damage of which the droids are capable: their {{KotOR|Special weapons|Carbonite Projector}} and {{KotOR|Special weapons|Flame Thrower}} won't damage at all if a successful Reflex save is made against {{~|Difficulty Classes|DC}} 15, and only a maximum critical hit will result in a single point of energy damage from their ranged attacks (and none at all with Improved {{KotOR|Feats|Toughness}} or Zaalbar's {{KotOR|Feats|Wookiee Toughness}}).

*'''Star Map: Dantooine'''|W=50%}}

Open your [[../Getting Started#Quests|journal]] and select Star Map: Dantooine from Quest items to read the following:

;You have recorded the coordinates from the Star Map you found on Dantooine into a datapad.

{{KotOR|Ruins|Exit}} the ruins to the north and return to the Jedi Council to [[../Quest for the Star Forge|tell them of your findings...]]
