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

Garage map

Main Base

The garage elevator takes you to the northwest corner of the garage. You cannot return to hideout or change party selection here, so you'd need to go back to the main base and out to the sewers or Lower City to do either of these things.

There's a deactivated junkpile droid to your left (a war droid), and another one (a Mark 2) further away by the west wall.

Minor Gas Mine (2) Detect 20 (0) Disable 20 (0) Recover 30 (10) It isn't possible to walk around them, but both Mission and Zaalbar can at least disable them. Otherwise, it's best to enter Solo mode and have one party member trigger the mines before using an Antidote Kit if need be (Zaalbar is recommended, and if he's at least level 7 and selected the Toughness and Increased Toughness feats then he'll take no damage whatsoever, even on Difficult). Turn left at the junction and you'll see first a standard door and then a security door in the north wall as you approach the east end of the tunnel. The first door opens on a room containing four Vulkar guards, two armed with Vulkar Shock Sticks and another two armed with Blaster Pistols.

There's another security door to the engine lab in the east wall of this room. If you try to open it before you've got the garage head key card from the desk in his office: [It looks like you will need a special pass to open this door.] Once you have the card, do not open either door unless you're prepared for a fight as a light side character (opening the door in the tunnel may lead to preferable positioning), or ready to leave the base as a dark side character. In any case, if you go west at the T-junction you'll see two standard doors in the north wall. The first opens to reveal a Duros Vulkar gang member in a room, working on a swoop bike. There's a radiation shields locker in the southwest corner, just to the left of the door from the tunnel. The second door opens to reveal two Vulkar gang members in a room working on a swoop bike, another Duros to the left and the other to the right. There's a workbench at the back of the room against the north wall, which can be used to add any upgrade items you have to any upgradeable weapons and body armor you have. Search for Bastila Once you open either of the security doors to the engine ab, you enter a dialog with Kandon Ark, a Twi'lek male who stands to the right behind a desk, while one of his bodyguards, a Twi'lek female, stands to the left. Two more bodyguards are behind them against the north wall. Dialog 1. Okay, we have a deal. I'll kill Gadon for you. Dark Side Points Gained: -2 You regain control at the main entrance to the Black Vulkar Base in the Lower City. If you return here, you can fight Kandon’s bodyguards but he himself will no longer be there, while returning before you've attacked the Hidden Beks allows you to take the swoop accelerator back to them.

He and the female are close enough together that grenades thrown at either of them will damage the other, but this isn't the case for the other two bodyguards: any ranged attackers in your party should focus fire on them since they don't use shields. The swoop accelerator is in the alcove in the northwest corner of the room, and it's mined. Minor Frag Mine (2) Detect 20 (0) Disable 20 (0) Recover 30 (10) However, it's possible to enter Solo mode and get around it. Return it to the Hidden Beks by leaving the Black Vulkar base via its main entrance to the Lower City. Loading Bay The loading dock is in the east wall of the garage, guarded by a Vulkar patrol droid.

Loading Dock Unlock 100 (80) Resist - Vitality - There are two ways to open the loading dock, the first of which is to program the junkpile droid previously mentioned to ram the loading bay doors instead of patrolling. This is recommended, since it both unlocks and opens the door. The second way is to use the garage computer in the office to open all security doors, which will unlock but not open the loading dock. If you access the security camera for the loading bay, the Vulkar patrol droid within starts patrolling and you cannot be sure where it will be when the loading dock is opened (otherwise, it will be at the south end of its patrol, facing the south wall, when it opens). Once open, you'll see the Vulkar patrol droid patrolling back and forth between the south and north ends of the loading bay.

However, Echani Fiber Armor (received from the security crate in the east Lower City apartments) upgraded with a Mesh Underlay (retrieved from the center footlocker inside the armory of the Black Vulkar base) has Damage Resistance: Resist 20/- vs. Cold, which will at least always negate its cold damage. It also activates its Energy Shield Level 3 before anything else, so most ranged weapons are much less effective since it can take 50 points of energy damage. The easiest way to defeat it is to enter Solo mode and move each member of your party down the south wall of the garage to the southeast corner, then along the east wall until they're all lined up to the right of the open Loading Dock. Mission and Zaalbar are already in position to ambush the Vulkar patrol droid, which is unaware of their presence. From this position your party can observe it and throw grenades just before it reaches the north end of its patrol, so that when it returns it will still be within the area of effect. 3–5 (most likely 4) Ion Grenades are the quickest way to kill it, although if it survives the first salvo then even though it shouldn't attack, it will activate its Energy Shield Level 3 and finishing it with a Frag Grenade would be advisable. There are a footlocker with random contents and a strong box in the southeast corner of the loading bay. Strong Box Unlock 24 (4) Resist 5 Vitality 15
