Last update: 04 October 2023
The last task you do for the Freestar Collective faction is called The Hammer Falls - it is unlocked immediately after the First to Fight, First to Die.
Travelling to Hopetown
- You must fly to the planet Polvo in Valo System, specifically Hopetown.
- Once there, head to the HopeTech building.
- Talk to Ron Hope - he is in the large ship hall on the ground floor of HopeTech.
Resolving the issue of Ron
During the conversation with Ron, you have to decide about his fate.
- You can accept 20,000 credits from him and forget about the matter. In that case, you will have to lie to the sheriff about solving the case.
- There is a second way to avoid a fight. If you choose the correct dialogue options (avoiding the ones that have [Attack] at the beginning), everyone will go their separate ways. You will still have to lie to the sheriff, though.
- The last option to settle the matter is a fight. Ron is practically defenseless, but several of his guards will attack you - by purchasing a lot of first aid kits and hiding behind covers, you can easily defeat them. After the fight, you have to talk to Birgit.
Meeting with the sheriff
- Go to The Rock (planet Akila, Cheyenne System).
- There, talk to Sheriff Blake. Depending on how your meeting with Ron went, you have to lie to him or tell the truth.
- Regardless of whether you killed or spared Hope, the mission will end. The rewards are the same regardless of the choices earlier.
- You will receive XP, 15,600 credits and the Star Eagle ship, which you can use without registration. In addition to this, you will receive a Freestar Ranger Badge, a Ranger Space Helmet, a Ranger Spacesuit, a Ranger Pack, Ranger Duelwear, the Justifier rifle, and ammunition.
