This is a topic going out to all of you who played KotOR II as a dark sider, at least once. Brace yourself, because this is a hell of a long post.
So, on the first proper planet you visit, Telos, you have the option to do all sorts of criminal activity. Such as helping out the Black Market, and doing errands for the Exchange and such.
Anyways, there is a mission you can do in Telos for a Twi'lek called Harra. The mission is that he has lost his wife/girlfriend/lover/whatever to another Twi'lek called Doton Het in a game of Pazaak.
He wants you to get her back, so like any good Samaritan, you do. There are a few ways you can get her back from Het. One is to just pay her off, straight away. Another is to win her in a game of Pazaak. Paying her cost 2000 credits, and you can persuade Het to go down to 1500. Winning her in Pazaak costs 1000 credits.
All the times I went dark side, I would win her in a Pazaak match, then keep her for myself.
It came as a huge shock to me when I found out, whilst playing dark side earlier today, that there is another option for getting her. That is to enlist the Exchange to help you. I only found out about this today, and I found it to be REALLY cool.
So what you do is:
1. Go to Doton Het, and try to buy her back. He won't really want to, so I just left, because I didn't have the credits at the time.
2. Go back to Harra, and he'll tell you that Het is cutting into the Exchange business.
3. Go to Luxa, in the Cantina, and tell her. She'll offer to send some of her Gamorreans Thugs to rough him up. Agree with it.
The screen will change back to Harra's apartment, and you, Harra, Ramana (The female Twi'lek dance), Doton Het, and a couple of Gamorrean Thugs will be there. The Thugs will be roughing up Doton, by hitting him with their axes. Ramana will tell you and Harra to stop it, but Harra will say no.
Eventually you will get to make your choices.
At the start, you can say:
1. Let him go.
2. Free Ramana and he can go.
3. Free Ramana after he's dead. Kill him.
I chose option three, but it is the same as option two. Doton agrees to free Ramana if you free him. Then you are given two more options:
1. Keep Ramana for yourself.
2. Free Ramana and let her go with Harra.
I chose option one (Cos I'm an asshole
). Harra gets pissed off with you, and you have more options. You can make him pay you 2000 credits for her, or be even more of an arse, and make him pay you 3000 credits. Guess which I chose? You guessed right. He calls you scum, and that he can't pay 3000 credits, and that he will find a way to get you the money. Ramana tells him not to bother, and that she doesn't love him, blah blah blah, and walks off back to the Cantina to work for you some more.
Harra insults/threatens you again, and runs off. One of the Thugs ask you what to do with Doton. You get another choice.
1. Let him go.
2. Kill him.
3. Let him live if he can pay you 2000 credits.
I chose option three, and he gives you the credits, even though he's already given you the girl. You are presented with a final choice after that. Let him go, or kill him. As the nice person I am, I killed him.
You can see a video of the mission
here. Just skip to about 6:40 and watch the rest.
I just want to say that this is one of the things I want the GTC to be like. No mercy, extortion, double-crossing, roughing people up, tricking fools into giving you things, and then killing them, arms dealing, etc.
I wish there was more of this type of stuff in KotOR. I hated it how little you could help out crime syndicates and do all sorts of illegal missions. This happens to now be my favourite mission in KotOR II, followed closely by the Black Market running. I hope we can do things like this in TOR.
I also want to know if anyone else know about this way to complete mission beforehand?
(There. Post done. Give me your thoughts.)
