Bonus mission
Take Back Drelliad Village (Bonus)
Drelliad Village / Fort Garnik
Speak to Gearbox
You begin your adventure as a Trooper in [1] - in the damaged transporter. Your first task will be to talk to Gearbox (unless it happened automatically). Speak with him to get the next mission objective.
Exit the transporter and start heading for Drelliad Village. Remember to mark Quick Travel Point (Drelliad Village) marked on the map with [Q]. Then force your way trough the separatist barricade and enter the village.
Dispatch the Separatist Forces: 0/10
While you'll be carrying out the next main and side mission objectives, the separatists will stand in your way more than twice. Kill ten to complete the bonus mission and gain 255 XP. The mission is about killing enemies of the following three types only: Separatist Scouts, Separatist Roughnecks and Separatist Sympathizers. Watch out especially for Separatist Heavy Gunners.
Destroy the Missile Launcher Cache
Your main goal is to destroy the missile launcher cache. There are several such chests in the village and they are all marked with [x] on the map. Be careful, as near each chest there's a group of separatists. Select one and smash it to get another mission objective.
Use Your Personal Holocom
Simply press the button on the screen to talk to Gearbox via the holocom.
Report to Commander Tavus
Go south to Fort Garnik. Watch out for the separatist forces along the way, especially for Separatist Liberation Droids [+]. Once you've arrived at the fort, it's necessary to run on the platform on the left and mark Quick Travel Point (Fort Garnik) and Taxi (Fort Garnik Speeder) on the map. Also, think about doing the class mission Best of the Best.
Another quick travel point is in the cantina (the entrance is in [2]). Go there and mark Quick Travel Point (Avilatan's Rest Cantina) on the map.
Then, head for the entrance to the Republic Command Center in [3]. Go through the green force field to enter the story area.
Speak to Private Farn
Soon after you've entered, you'll be accosted by Private Farn in [4]. He'll have a brief chat with you. It doesn't matter what you say.
Report to Commander Tavus
Speak to Commander Tavus
All you need to do now is to go to the next room in [5] and talk to Commander Tavus. You'll complete this mission and receive the next.
