The Outer Worlds in a nutshell

The Outer Worlds is a first-person RPG set in the science fiction universe and was developed by Obsidian
Entertainment. Among the people working on the game, were Leonard Boyarsky and Tim Kane, that is, the
developers responsible for the first Fallout.
In The Outer Worlds, you play as a settler awakened from hibernation, who along with thousands of other
people, traveled to a new colony in the Halcyon star system. It turns out that the ship we were on board
drifted in space without control, and the main character stumbles upon the trail of a conspiracy
involving large corporations.
In The Outer Worlds, the action is observed from the first-person perspective (FPP). The title is a typical RPG.
During the adventure, you will explore the world, speak with NPCs and complete main and side
quests.
The hero doesn't have to travel alone. You can experience adventures with companions controlled by artificial
intelligence.
Color markings used in the manual

The guide uses following color markings:
1. Blue is for quests;

Basics
10 best starting tips
The vast world of The Outer Worlds can seem overwhelming at first. That is why we have prepared 10 best
starting tips - following them will certainly make the first hours of the game easier. Here we have discussed
the most important aspects of this title. Here you will learn how to gain experience quickly (and level up your
character), what skills are worth developing at the beginning, or how to easily get the first companion. We
haven't forgotten about combat-related tips - how to use Tactical Time Dilation (TTD) or take care of our
character's build and weapons. In a nutshell - this page will tell you how to play The Outer Worlds.
Gaining experience fast
Discovering even a small location will give you a few dozen experience points.
When you level up your character, you get skill and perk points. To gain new levels, you must get experience
points. This can be done in several ways - through successfully completing a mission, killing enemies,
discovering locations, using skills, opening locks and hacking. By combining all these methods, you
will quickly strengthen your hero. It is worth adding that even killing non-aggressive creatures like Prats
gives you a few experience points - you should look for them.
MORE INFORMATION ABOUT LEVELING UP THE HERO
The topic of gaining experience is described in more detail in a separate part of our guide. Check "How to
gain experience quickly?" page to learn more.
Develop the Lockpick ability
By developing Lockpick skill, you won't have problems with basic locks.
Invest a few points in this skill either after you start the game or when you are still in the character creator.
If you develop Lockpick up to level 20, you will be able to open containers requiring a single mag-
pick without using this item. Simply upgrade the "Stealth" skills group to level 20. Thanks to this, you
won't have problems with opening various containers and boxes, giving you more items (which you can then,
for example, sell).
Collect everything
At the beginning of the game, you should pick up every item.
The following advice goes well with the previous one. Collect all items encountered at the beginning of
the game. Even if they turn out to be useless, they can be sold - the received bits can be spent on
ammunition or better equipment. Look for containers and chests, and collect all loot from defeated enemies.
YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH SPACE IN YOUR INVENTORY?
While collecting all the loot, it may turn out that you will run out of inventory space. Fortunately, there are
ways to increase the carrying capacity. Check "How to increase the carrying capacity?" page in our guide.
Quick way to unlock a companion
A companion will help you in exploring the world.
Their presence will certainly make your gameplay easier. Each of them is helpful in battles, they improve
your skills, and have a special ability. That is why you should get your first companion as soon as possible.
Focus on Stranger in a Strange Land mission. At some point in this quest, you will reach a town called
Edgewater. When speaking with the mayor, agree to take Parvati with you.
ALL COMPANIONS
Do you want to get all the companions available in The Outer Worlds? Check "How to easily get a
companion?" page in our guide.
Use skills in conversations
Using skills in dialogues provides you with additional experience, but also allows you to have an impact on the interlocutor.
Using skills in dialogues allows you to get more information, or slightly affect the progress of a quest. In
addition, after successfully using a skill in conversation, you will receive several dozen experience points.
You can recognize these options by the name and the required number of ability points located in
square brackets. If your skills from the "Dialog" are at a sufficient level, you will be able to choose a given
option.
Choose your build character
You should come up with a certain path of development of your hero.
Developing a character in a random direction won't give you good effects - the number of skill and perk
points is limited because the maximum level is 30. Try to think about your build when you start the
game for the first time. It is impossible to determine which build is better - you can fight using melee
weapons, focus on ranged weapons or attack enemies while hiding.
RESETTING CHARACTER
There's a way to reset skills and perks in The Outer Worlds, so you can change your build at any time. Check
"How to reset character development?" page to learn more.
Use Tactical Time Dilation (TTD)
Tactical Time Dilation makes it easier to hit the enemy's weakspots.
TTD is a great way to hit the enemy's weak points. The slow-motion will allow you to easily aim, for example,
at enemy's head - you will also see information about what effect the enemy will receive (e.g. bleeding or
stun). A good way to use this mechanic is to activate TTD before approaching enemies. In this way, you will
be able to weaken them before the fight begins.
Take care of the condition of your equipment
The status of the object can be checked in the inventory.
Using a weapon reduces its durability - this makes a given weapon or armor weaker (less damage or less
defensive properties). Therefore, it is necessary to constantly take care of the condition of the equipment.
You can repair weapons in a workbench - you can find it on the spaceship, as well as in many other
places (e.g. in towns.) To repair something, you need weapon or armor parts. You can find them scattered
around the game world, or get them by dismantling equipment in a workbench.
NEED A BETTER WEAPON?
In addition to the state of the equipment, it is also worth remembering to replace weapons with the more
powerful ones. Check "How to get a better weapon?" to learn our suggestions and the locations of better
weapons.
Buy ammunition
Having the right amount of ammunition is the basis of survival.
Even the best weapons won't be useful if you don't have the right ammunition. You will get some ammunition
from enemies and during exploration - you can get more of it by buying ammunition from traders. Choose
the weapon you use the most and then browse through the trader's offer for ammunition to that weapon. You
should also get a perk called A Few Bits More - the ammunition stocks offered by traders will be increased
by 100%.
Upgrade your favorite weapons
Modifications will make a given weapon better.
Remember that you can improve weapons by installing mods - you can change the type of damage dealt or
add a better scope. You can modify weapons using a workbench. To improve weapons, you need
specific modifications - they are found in the game world as items. You can find them during exploration or
buy from traders. In addition, you can develop the Engineering skill thanks to which you get a chance to get
modifications when dismantling weapons.
Starting tips
Starting tips will help you learn the gameplay mechanics found in The Outer Worlds. This page covers all
aspects of the production and explains the rules of the game. You will find starting tips and tricks - how to
get a better weapon, how to gain experience, how to use fast travel or how to hack and open locks. We also
haven't forgotten about crafting, reputation, or ways to quickly get a companion. The next part of the
page is dedicated to character development. You will learn how to level up your hero, how to acquire
new skills and perks or which starting perks are the best. The next part has information about combat in
The Outer Worlds - how to heal yourself or what types of damage are in the game. Information about
the available companions is also useful. There, you will check all the companions and learn how does
exploration with them looks like. The page ends with frequently asked questions. We answer, e.g., how to
holster weapons, how to change the language of the game, or how to remove a companion's helmet in The
Outer Worlds.
The following tips and tricks will help you at the start of the game.
Collect everything you find

When you start the game, you don't need to think about the value of the items you come across - collect
everything you encounter while exploring the world. Even useless garbage can be sold, and slowly
accumulate large amounts of bits (the in-game currency). These bits can be spent on better weapons or
ammunition.
Collecting everything can quickly lead to a situation where your character is overburdened. Check "How to
increase the carrying capacity?" page to learn how to make the inventory bigger.
Gaining experience fast

Thanks to the experience gained, your character will advance to new levels - this gives you the possibility of
improving skills and buying new perks. Therefore, it is worth knowing how to earn experience in The
Outer Worlds. There are several ways to do this - killing enemies, completing missions, discovering new
locations, using skills in dialogues, as well as hacking terminals and opening locks.
This topic was discussed on "How to gain experience quickly?" page.
A better starting weapon
The fastest way to get something better than the starting pistol is to explore the spaceship.
You start the game with a basic handgun - this weapon isn't great so you should immediately look for a
better one. On the way of the spaceship, you will encounter several marauders - take all their weapons. You
should also find a shotgun, which is on your ship. Enter the ship and go to the room on the left. Here, you
will find a workbench and a shotgun.
Locations of other better weapons can be found on a separate page of our guide. Check out "How to get a
better weapon?".
Get a companion quickly

Another useful thing you can do after starting The Outer Worlds is to complete Stranger in a Strange Land
quest as quickly as possible. During this mission, you will have the opportunity to unlock the first companion
- Parvati. You can do that during the conversation with the Edgewater mayor - agree to join the young
engineer to your party. The companion will support you during battles, as well as strengthen your abilities.
Starting the spaceship

In The Outer Worlds, you quickly get your personal ship called The Unreliable - however, before using it, you
have to find a way to provide energy. To do this, you have to complete Comes Now the Power quest.
Regardless of the choices made in this mission, you will unlock the option to travel to other planets.
More information about the spaceship can be found on "Spaceship - The Unreliable" page.
Fast travel
Remember that the game has a fast travel option. How to travel fast in The Outer Worlds? You simply have
to discover a location - now you can teleport to it using the map. Fast travel is free and available at almost
any point in the game.
Hacking terminals and opening locks
Hacking terminals and opening locks is useful throughout the entire game.
The ability to hack terminals is useful for opening locked entrances or getting information from computers. In
turn, thanks to the ability to open locks, you will have access to closed doors, chests, and containers. In the
first case, you will need the necessary number of bypass shunts. In the second, you will need mag-picks.
Besides these items, your character will also need to have the corresponding skills at a sufficient level. When
you are creating your character, you should develop the Lockpick ability to at least level 20 - you
will be able to open locks requiring one mag-pick without using any of them.
This mechanic was described on a separate page - "Hacking terminals and opening locks".
Crafting - improving the equipment

You can't craft items in The Outer Worlds. Crafting is used for improving equipment. Use a workbench (the
first is in your ship) to modify weapons or armor by adding new elements or properties - you need
modifications that can be found in the world or purchased from some traders. It is also possible to improve a
weapon by increasing its statistics.
Want to learn all the secrets of crafting? Check "Tinkering and crafting" page.
Reputation
It is worth remembering that the game has a reputation system - this applies to the factions. If you support
members of a given faction by performing tasks for them and make decisions favorable to that faction, then
your reputation with this group will grow. Thanks to this, you will be rewarded with better prices
offered by the traders of this faction. On the other hand, if you kill faction members and make decisions
that affect them in a bad way, your reputation will decline - this can cause members of that faction to attack
you.
Learn more about the reputation system on the "Reputation" page.
Using skills in dialogs

In The Outer Worlds, skills aren't used only in battles or opening locks. Persuade, Lie and Intimidate
skills give you more options in dialogs. These options give you some experience points but they can also
affect the course of a quest. You can recognize these options by the name of the ability in square brackets.
Character development starting tips
Your choice of perks and skills determines your character build.
Character development is a very important element of The Outer Worlds. You make a character build by
developing skills and choosing perks. With each new level (this happens when you obtain the required
number of experience points), you get points that will make your character more powerful. It is impossible to
say which build is better - the following information explains the character development system. With its
help, you will be able to choose your own play style. Remember that the maximum level is 30.
Skills development
Skills in The Outer Worlds are divided into seven categories: ranged, melee, dialog, defense, tech, stealth,
and leadership. Each time your character gains a level, you get 10 skill points. Allocating a point to a
given category improves all the skills of that category - but after improving a given ability to level
50, you will have to develop it separately (up to level 100). Each allocated point improves a given skill.
You can also unlock special bonuses to that skill - this happens every 20 points.
The list of all skills can be found on a separate page of our guide.
Unlocking new perks

Perks are divided into three tiers - you unlock a new tier by spending five points on one level. Each perk
costs one point, but you get a perk point every two levels.
All perks in The Outer Worlds were described here.
Best perks to start with

The game has a few perks that are suitable for most character builds - they can be called the best starting
perks. At the beginning of the game, pay attention to the following perks:
1. Toughness - increases maximum health by 50%.

2. Pack Mule - additional 50 kg carrying capacity.
3. Harvester - each kill restores 15% health.
More information about this topic on a separate page - "What perks to initially choose".
Resetting character development

Remember that you can reset your character at any point in the game - this is especially useful when you
want to check out a different build. Simply go to your spaceship and then go to the upper part of the room on
the left. You will find a device that can give you back all allocated skill and perk points - this operation costs
500 bits.
If you can't find the mentioned device - look here. This page contains a detailed description as well as
photos.
Combat starting tips
You can fight in different ways.
Avoiding any confrontations is extremely difficult - that is why you should learn how to fight in The Outer
Worlds. The following tips will help you fight regardless of the way you play. You will find information on how
to heal, learn how the Tactical Time Dilation works or what types of damage are in the game.
More about this topic on a separate page - "Combat".
Restoring health
Health is restored automatically, but only outside battles. During the battle, you need to use an item called
Adreno - you will find it during exploration or purchase from merchants. This is an inhaler that will instantly
restore some of your health. You can use it by pressing the following button:
Platform Button
PC
Xbox One
PlayStation 4
Additional tips on health and treatment on a separate page - "How to regenerate health?".
Types of damage
Each weapon has a certain type of damage - you can check it in the inventory screen. The effectiveness of a
given type of damage depends on the enemy - you should always have access to at least two types of
damage. The available types of damage:
1. Physical - effective against opponents without armor.

2. N-Ray - penetrates enemy armor.
3. Plasma - works best against humans, ineffective against Mantisaurs.
4. Shock - the most effective against automechanicals.
5. Corrosion - strong against armored enemies.
Tactical Time Dilation
Tactical Time Dilation is useful during fights.
Tactical Time Dilation, one of the combat mechanics in The Outer Worlds, is a great way to gain an
advantage during combat - with its help, you can easily hit enemies' weak spots. Aim at the enemy in this
mode to see useful information - health, armor and a brief description of the enemy. You can't use Tactical
Time Dilation all the time. Pay attention to the TTD bar (top left corner of the screen) - the bar depletes
when you use TTD and regenerates when you aren't using it.
To activate Tactical Time Dilation, press the appropriate button:
Platform Button
PC
PlayStation 4
Xbox One
Melee and blocking

You should always carry a melee weapon. Even if you focus on ranged weapons, you will often find yourself
in a situation where enemies get closer to you. The game has four weapon slots - assign a melee
weapon to one of them. Thanks to this, you will do better in melee fights. You will also be able to block
attacks.
Companions starting tips
There are six companions in The Outer Worlds.
Companions in The Outer Worlds are very useful for novice players. They support you in fights, as well as
enhance the abilities of your hero (the disadvantage is a smaller amount of experience points received after
killing enemies). You can travel with two companions at the same time, but nothing prevents you from
getting all of them - you can change the party in your spaceship.
All companions
There are six companions in total - Parvati, Vicar, Max, Felix, Ellie, Nyoko and SAM. The companions also
have their personal quests - all these quests are listed here.
How to quickly and easily get the first companion? Check this page.
Giving orders to companions
You can give orders to your party members.
You can give them basic commands. These orders force them to move, attack and use special abilities. The
commands menu is in the bottom left corner of the screen.
Special abilities of your companions

It is worth knowing that after developing the Inspiration skill to at least level 20, your companions will be
able to use special abilities. Each party member has a unique ability.
Traveling without companions

Traveling alone is also possible. If you prefer to explore the world without companions, be sure to invest in
the Lone Wolf perk, which increases your damage by 25% if you travel alone.
FAQ
This section has answers to many questions.
The last section of the page focuses on frequently asked questions. You will find answers to technical
questions (how to change the language of the game and what are the system requirements for The Outer
Worlds), but also those related directly to the gameplay - how to holster weapons, how to heal companions
or how to remove companions' helmets in The Outer Worlds.
How to change the game's language?

Character development, perks and abilities

Character development and choosing the appropriate build in The Outer Worlds is extremely important.
Investing in chosen skills and perks determines your style of play - melee weapons, ranged combat, stealth
attacks, or emphasis on persuasion and peaceful conflict resolution. This page covers all aspects of character
development in the game. You will find out how many skill points and perks you get for reaching a new level,
as well as all the skills and perks available in The Outer Worlds.
Basic information
The most important information about your hero can be found in the character summary screen.
The information below will familiarize you with the leveling up system and will tell you what happens when
your character reaches the next level.
1. You gain a level after obtaining a certain number of experience points (the higher the level, the more
experience points you need). You earn experience points by killing enemies, discovering locations,
completing quests, or using skills in dialogues. More information can be found on "How to gain
experience quickly?" page.
2. The hero's skills are divided into seven groups: melee, ranged weapons, defense, dialog, stealth, tech,
and leadership. A detailed list can be found below.
3. With each new level, you get 10 skill points. Adding points to a skill group (e.g. melee, ranged
weapons or defense) improves all the skills of this group. After reaching level 50 in a given skill, you
can develop it separately - the maximum skill level is 100. The effectiveness of the skill increases
with each point. Every 20 levels, you can unlock an additional bonus.
4. Every 2 levels, your hero gets 1 perk point. The perks were divided into three tiers. Once you
spend five points on one level of a given perk, you gain access to the next.

Hacking terminals and opening locks

Hacking and opening locks in The Outer Worlds will allow you to get to locked spaces, get better equipment,
or access a computer. During the game you will constantly encounter closed boxes and containers or locked
terminals - so it is worth to learn how to open locks and how to hack. On this page you will find information
that you need to hack computers and terminals and open boxes and containers in The Outer Worlds.
ALL SKILLS
Hacking and opening locks are not the only skills in The Outer Worlds. In the game there are many more,
and the full list is on a separate page of our guide.
How to open locks?
You will find magnetic lockpicks during exploration or you can buy them from some merchants.
To open closed doors, containers or boxes it is necessary to develop Lockpicking and Mag-Picks skills.
When approaching the closed lock, you will see what requirements you need to fulfill to open it. This is the
required skill level as well as the number of lock picks. If you meet the requirements, you can proceed to the
opening - the required number of lock picks will be removed from Your inventory and the lock will be opened.
The development of opening locks skills not only allows you to open more advanced locks, but also provides
additional bonuses:
Allows you to open doors and containers that require 1

20
Mag-pick without using this item
40 You find 25% more bits in containers
Allows you to check the contents of containers before

60
opening them
80 The speed of opening locks becomes nearly instant
Chance to find an item in pristine condition is increased

100
by 100%
How to hack terminals?
Locked terminals are indicated by a closed lock and unlocked terminals by an open lock.
Hacking terminals is very similar to the opening of the locks. In this case, you need to develop the Hacking
skill and have Bypass Shunts - these items can be found across the in-game world as well as purchased
from some vendors. You will recognize the locked terminal by the closed lock icon. When approaching such a
terminal, you will learn what skill level and how many conductors are required for hacking. If these conditions
are met, the terminal will be fully accessible (remember that the required number of Shunts will disappear
from your inventory).
Like the ability to open locks, the hacking ability also offers special bonuses during development:
20 Allows you to sell goods for vending machines
Gives access to restricted items in the vending

40
machines
Allows you to hack the Automechanicals and disabling

60
them for 3 seconds
Reduces the detection range of the Automechanicals by

80
30%
Increases the range of hacking Automechanicals by 2.5

100
meters (5 meters in total)
Tinkering and crafting - how to improve, upgrade

your equipment
Crafting in The Outer Worlds is called Tinkering and it's limited only to weapon and armor upgrades. You
can't create new items in the game, but you can modify your equipment at the workbench (for example, by
adding a scope or increasing the damage of specific item). Also, you can repair items, improve item statistics
and even destroy weapons or armor pieces to get parts required for repairs. This page of our guide describes
the Tinkering (crafting system) which can be used in The Outer Worlds.
Weapon and armor modifications
Thanks to mods you can, for example, change the weapon's damage type.
In other words, equipment upgrades consist in adding new mods to your armor or weapon that change
statistics and features of specific items. It can be a scope to increase weapon's range, a mod in the form of
damage type changer, a silencer to reduce the noise, or a clip that has higher ammo capacity. Modifications
exist in the game world as items, so you need to find them first if you want to upgrade your
weapon or armor. You will find them during world exploration. Also, they're sold by some merchants.
HOW TO FIND AND OBTAIN MODS?
In addition to world exploration and merchants, an additional way to obtain modifications is to develop your
engineer skill. When you advance your Engineering skill up to level 40 you get a 20% chance of obtaining a
normal modification when dismantling equipment, and when you develop Engineering skill to level 80 you get
a 10% chance of obtaining a rare modification when disassembling a piece of equipment. More information
about skills can be found on a separate page of our guide.
Tinkering
Tinkering improves item stats.
Tinkering is used to increase the statistics of specific items and pieces of equipment. In the case of
weapons, this means an increase of damage and in the case of armor improvement of protective
properties. Tinkering requires a certain number of bits to be spent, and each upgrade becomes more
expensive. What is important - in order to use Tinkering you must develop the Science skill to level
20. Further development of this skill is also a way to reduce the cost of Tinkering.
How to repair equipment and disassembly items?
Used equipment loses its properties.
After using armor for a long time it will lose its effectiveness - weapons deal less damage and armor has
weaker protective properties. So it's worth remembering to repair your weapons regularly. Every repair
requires a part of the weapon or armor, which you can get by dismantling the equipment.
Disassembly of a weapon will get you weapon parts. Disassembly of armor provides armor parts - the
number of obtained parts depends on the quality of the disassembled item.
Developing engineering skill is essential for weapon/armor repairs. At level 20 of Engineering, you will
unlock the ability to repair weapons and armor in your inventory (that is, without using a workbench).
Additionally, at level 60 of Engineering skill, you will gain a 20% chance of quality boost when repairing
items.
Reputation
Reputation in The Outer Worlds influences how you are perceived by members of a given faction. If your
reputation is low, faction traders will offer you higher prices and in extreme cases you may even be attacked
by faction members. On the other hand, good relations with a certain faction ensure better (lower) prices at
faction merchants. On this page of our guide you will learn about the activities that affect your reputation.
Also, you we have explained the specific benefits and penalties related to reputation status.
What affects reputation?
Action against members of a particular group affects the reputation status with this group.
In other words, your reputation status with a specific faction depends on the actions you take against its
members. If you successfully complete missions for a specific faction and make decisions that are beneficial
to this group of people (during conversations and key stages of quests), your reputation will grow
significantly. On the other hand, if you steal from or even kill members of a given faction, make unfavorable
decisions for them, your reputation will deteriorate.
The first quest, in which you will have to make a choice that affects the faction is Comes Now the Power -
your decision on resolving the issue of energy transfer may affect your relationship with the deserters
faction.
How does reputation work?
In the character menu you can check your reputation with a particular faction.
You can check the reputation status with a given faction in the character menu. It has a form of
percentage value that is divided into two types - positive and negative reputation.. Both types of
reputation are combined. For example, you can have a 70% positive and 70% negative reputation value
among one faction at the same time. Depending on which indicator you have in both reputation types, you
will receive different bonuses or penalties. For example, 80% of the negative reputation and 80% of the
positive reputation among a certain faction will provide a different effect from 10% and 30% respectively.
You can find a detailed overview of reputation benefits and penalties in the table below:
Negative reputation Positive reputation Effect
From 0% to 29% From 0% to 29% N/A
More than 80% More than 80% N/A

Spaceship - The Unreliable

The Unreliable is a spacecraft that you can get access to in The Outer Worlds. It will serve as a shelter or
storage. Also it offers the opportunity to travel to other planets. Not all of the ship's features are available
immediately, however - in order to gain access to all of the benefits you will have to complete the Comes
Now the Power quest. This page of our guide contains all information about the spacecraft in The Outer
Worlds.
How do I get the ship up and running?
You will launch the spacecraft when you complete the Comes Now the Power quest.
To launch a spacecraft, you need to get an item called Power Regulator. To obtain this item, you need
to complete the Comes Now the Power quest. It does not matter what decisions you make during the task -
at the end of the quest you will get the regulator anyway. Now head on board the Unreliable and move to the
top of the left room, where you will find a slot to insert the power regulator. Finally, go to the ADA system
(right part of the ship). During the conversation select the option to start the spacecraft.
WHERE TO STORE ITEMS?
A spacecraft is a good place to store weapons, armor and other items. Check out the "How to store items?"
page of our guide to get more information regarding this issue.
How to travel to other planets?
Thanks to the navigation terminal you can travel to other planets.
After you have launched the ship you will receive another quest - to Passage to Anywhere. At this point you
are also given the opportunity to travel to other planets. Just use The Unreliable Navigation Terminal -
it's located in the same place as the ADA system, that is on the right side of the ship. After launching the
terminal, you will see planets and places that you can currently visit.
Combat
Combat in The Outer Worlds is an integral part of the gameplay. Even if you try to peacefully resolve most
conflicts, you avoid battles and eventually, you will have to grab a weapon. The game offers several different
possibilities for combat - melee weapons, firearms, using stealth, science weapons, or comrades. This page
focuses on combat in The Outer Worlds. Here you will learn types of damage and their stealth capabilities.
You will also learn how to block attacks and heal wounds.
Types of damage
There are five types of damage in the game.
Damage type can be checked in the inventory by hovering over a particular weapon. The effectiveness of
this type of damage depends on the opponent you are fighting. Some work better on mantisaurs,
while others work better on heavily armored opponents. There are five types of damage in The Outer Worlds:
1. Physical - ineffective against armored opponents.

2. Plasma - effective against humans, ineffective against mantisaurs.
3. Corrosion - effective against armored opponents.
4. Shock - effective against automechanicals.
5. N-Ray - bypass armor.
As you can see, it is worth having constant access to more than one type of damage. Get weapons
with at least two different types of damage - this will make your character more versatile.
CHANGING DAMAGE TYPE
The damage type can be changed by selecting the appropriate weapon modification. Check the page
dedicated to tinkering and crafting.
Tactical Time Dilation
Tactical Time Dilation can give you a big advantage over your enemies.
Thanks to Tactical Time Dilation, you can easily hit enemies' weak spot (e.g. in the head.) It is also a great
way to understand the overall situation on the battlefield. During the TTD, you can analyze an enemy by
aiming at them - you can learn how much health and armor they have, and see their brief description, which
will allow you to use the right tactics. Use the Tactical Time Dilation as often as possible - while it is
active, try to hit the enemies' weak spots.
Of course, you can't use the Tactical Time Dilation endlessly. Look at the purple bar in the upper left
corner of the screen - it represents the amount of TTD. Moving in TTD depletes this bar. However, you
spend even more of it by attacking. The TTD panel is restored automatically when you don't use it.
You can activate Tactical Time Dilation by pressing the following buttons (depending on the platform):
Platform Button
PC
PlayStation 4
Xbox One
Melee combat and blocking
Many fights lead to direct confrontation.
Even if you decide to focus on firearms, it is worth having a decent melee weapon at your disposal. This is
especially important at the beginning of the game, where you can often run out of ammo or face an
enemy who isn't worth wasting ammunition. Remember that you have four weapon slots at your disposal, so
sacrificing one on a melee weapon shouldn't be a problem. Thanks to this, you can do better on the
battlefield and be able to defeat enemies in direct confrontation.
Melee weapons serve not only to attack, but also to block. This allows you to avoid some of the damage done
by the enemy. Also, by improving the Block attribute to level 20, you will be able to perform a perfect block -
if you block an attack right before it hits you, you will stun the attacker.
Restoring health
Health is restored with an item called Adreno.
During combat, you will certainly sustain damage - outside battles, health regenerates automatically,
but during fights, you need to use an item called Adreno. You will find them during exploration and
purchase from some traders - collect and buy them whenever you get a chance. Adreno restores some health
points instantly - this item is a must-have.
MORE INFORMATION ON HEALING
The topic of healing and treating wounds was described on "How to regenerate health?" page.
How to heal in The Outer Worlds? To use Adreno, press the following buttons (depending on the platform you
are playing on):
Platform Button
PC
PlayStation 4
Xbox One
Stealth attacks
You can enter tall grass to hide from enemies.
Surprise attacks, that is, those that you inflict on an unaware opponent, deal additional damage. Even if you
are not a fan of stealth, it is worth taking advantage of this method to deal more damage to the first enemy -
develop Sneak attribute to increase the damage. Remember - you need to be in stealth mode to be
able to perform a sneak attack. Use elements of the environment while planning a sneak attack - tall
grass or boulders will hide your hero and make you difficult to find.
Giving orders to companions
You can give basic commands to your companions.
Companions are very useful on the battlefield. Although they attack enemies automatically, you can still
give them simple orders. Command icons are displayed in the lower-left corner of the screen. At the
beginning of the game, you get access to the move order and the attack order - simply aim at the place you
want to send them or aim at the enemy you want them to attack, and press the right button. After
developing the Inspiration ability to level 20, you will unlock the option to use special attacks of your
companions.
ALL COMPANIONS
Do you want to get all the companions available in The Outer Worlds? Take a look at "How to easily get a
companion?" page and check the list of all companion quests.
Best builds
This guide page contains suggestions on the best The Outer Worlds builds. Here we have prepared a selection
of three types of character development-for ranged combat, for hand-to-hand combat, as well as for combat
with comrades. Within each build you will find its description, as well as the best attributes (selected when
creating a hero), skills and perks that should form the basis of a given build.
ALL PERKS AND SKILLS
Before you start creating your build, it is worth checking out all of the skills and perks available in The Outer
Worlds. You will find them on a separate page of our guide.
Build for long-range weapons
Fighting at a distance allows you to avoid direct confrontation.
A build designed for long-range weapons focuses on eliminating enemies from a safe distance. Combining
pistols, long or heavy weapons, with Tactical Time Dilation gives the best results. Stealth skills are also useful
- if you want to take out some of enemies without being detected. Each battle is better to start from stealth
and by using the Tactical Time Dilation. This will allow you to assess the situation and take out the most
difficult opponents. Also, be aware of how often you hit your opponent's weak spots (such as an attack in the
head)
Attributes
In the process of creating a character, you need to focus on Perception and Intelligence. Thanks to this, from
the very beginning of the gameplay, the most important skills (Pistols, Weapons, Long Weapons and Heavy
Weapons) will be strengthened.
1. Perception: Very high level

2. Intelligence: Very high level
Skills
Basic abilities are the ones that are found in the group of Ranged Weapons. This will provide, above all,
additional damage with critical strikes. It is also worth investing in the Stealth category - the character will
become less visible to opponents and the Open Locks and Hacking terminals abilities will make exploring the
world and getting the items easier.
Perks
Selected perks should increase the damage dealt by ranged weapons, as well as improve Tactical Time
Dilation. A good choice is Time Dilation, The Reaper, Scanner, Steady Hand and Confidence. It is also
worth to get skills such as A Few More Bits or Solo Sneaker.
Build for melee weapons
The best build for fans of close encounters.
The following The Outer Worlds build focuses on melee combat. The main decision is to choose between two-
handed and one-handed weapons. Two-handed weapons-increase damage, but one-handed weapons allow
faster strikes - the choice is individual because build works in both types of melee weapons. The gameplay of
the character based on hand-to-hand combat is simple - you defeat enemies in close quarters. Of course, you
must not forget about blocks and evasion, as well as perks that increase health.
Attributes
Focusing on Strength and Dexterity results in higher damage dealt in melee, as well as overall faster attacks.
An additional benefit is the increase in inventory capacity.
1. Strength: Very high level

2. Dexterity: Very high level
Skills
The choice of skills is fairly simple. You should focus on 1-Handed Melee or 2-Handed Melee - depending
on your preferences. The development of these skills increases the damage from critical hits. You also need
to remember about the Block, which with each level gives bonus Armor Rating.
Perks
The perks selected in this build should primarily increase the character's survival - increasing health and
armor, or improving healing options. The main perks are Resilient and Toughness. Of course, it is also
worth getting the The Reaper and Tit for Tat perks. Next you should get access to the Confidence and
Last Stand perks.
Build for companions
Comrades can successfully take on enemies.
The last build focuses on maximizing the use of companions. At the beginning of the game, this build can be
quite difficult to follow (having access to only one companion), but as the game progresses it gains in
strength. The basic principle of the build is to allow your companions as many kills as possible, to get the
bonuses from the Deadly Demonstrations perk (additional experience points gained for kills made by your
companions). Of course, your character must also be able to defend and fight. We recommend ranged
weapons-it is easier to help companions from a distance.
Attributes
Charm affects the skills of companions and Intelligence and Perception increases damage done by critical hits
and by hitting weak spots, allowing you to support your team more effectively. Lowered temperament will
cause your health not to recover automatically, but the character should stay behind and only help his
comrades.
1. Charm: Very high level

2. Intelligence: High level
3. Perception: High level
4. Temperament: Below average
Skills
The main skills are, of course, Inspiration and Determination, increasing the damage and health of our
comrades. Science is also useful, as it will allow you to improve weapons. In addition, it is worth investing a
few points into Lockpick and Hack, as well as one of the Ranged Weapons skills.
Perks
The first and the most important perk is the Deadly Demonstration - it will allow you to acquire additional
experience points for the kills made by your companions. Also, you should focus on perks improving your
companions - Precision, We Band of Brothers, Tag Team and Don't Go Dyin' On Me!
FAQ
What does the gameplay look like?
The Outer Worlds is a typical RPG that has advanced gameplay. On this page of the guide, you will find out
how does the gameplay looks like in Obsidian Entertainment's latest title.
Exploration
During your adventure, you will travel a semi-open world. The map is divided into several major regions
that you can explore freely. You move between them in your ship.
You can visit these regions at specific moments of the plot. Also, some of them can't be explored again
after you reach a certain point in the game.
Dialogues and choices

During the exploration, you will come across a number of independent characters - you can talk to them. The
conversation mechanic is based on standard solutions. You will see a number of dialog lines from which
you have to select one of them. Depending on your abilities, you will have different options.
During conversations, you often have to make decisions that will affect the further course of the plot. They
are marked with light.
Combat
Battles in The Outer Worlds take place in real time. Each opponent has its weaknesses and tactics. You
can fight them using a wide range of firearms and melee weapons.
During battles, you can also use the TTD mechanic (Tactical Time Dilation). This mechanic was described in a
separate chapter.
Are there any companions?

As in many other games from Obsidian Entertainment, The Outer Worlds also gives you the opportunity to
recruit party members. This page of the guide provides an overview of this aspect of the game.
During your adventure, you will be able to add new companions to your party. You can assemble a party that
will accompany you during your adventures. Due to the fact that each character has their own unique
skills, you need to carefully study their skills. If you do that, you will be able to choose a party that will
best fit your way of playing.
When you explore The Outer Worlds with a team, you can control its party members to some extent. You can
do this using a special console with four commands:
• Attack a specified target [1] - as the name suggests, this command will cause the team to focus its
attack on a specific target;
• Special skills [2] - this command activates special abilities;
• Charge [3] - with this command you can order your team to move to the specified point.
Of course, playing with a team isn't mandator. You can travel alone.
What is TTD?
Your character has the ability called TTD (Tactical Time Dilation). This page of the guide to The Outer Worlds
will help you with this aspect of the game.
If you have played games from the Fallout series, then you have probably used the VATS system. TTD is its
counterpart. The TTD bar is displayed in the left corner of the screen, under the health bar.
When activated, time slows down. You can now easily eliminate large groups of enemies. Just aim and shoot.
However, remember that shooting in this mode depletes the bar - if it runs out completely, you will
automatically stop using this ability.
While using TTD in The Outer Worlds, aim at an opponent to see their brief description. You will learn to
which faction your opponent belongs, how much life they have and how do they attack. This will help you to
come up with the right tactics.
How to survive in Supernova mode?

Supernova is one of the difficulty modes in The Outer Worlds. This is the most challenge difficulty level. It
introduces new mechanics to the game. This page will tell you how to survive in Supernova mode.
Exploration and saving the game

During the game, you will explore many locations. They have important points that are used for fast travel.
However, these points are blocked in the Supernova mode - you can only fast travel to your ship.
In addition, the saving options are also limited. You can save manually only when you are in your ship.
Automatic saves are done when you move from one location to another.
If you have trouble with a specific quest and you are afraid to go through it in a single approach, you can use
the save mechanic to your advantage. Simply go to another location. The game will make an autosave.
Physiological need
In The Outer Worlds, the biggest change when compared to other difficulty levels is the need to take care of
three physiological needs - hunger, thirst and sleep. Neglecting them will negatively affect your character's
stats, e.g. fatigue will reduce intelligence.
Neglected physiological needs and negative effects imposed on the character during combat will negatively affect your stats.
These needs are represented by three separate indicators.

They deplete gradually, imposing negative effects on your character. When this happens, a
corresponding icon will appear next to the health bar. This is a signal that you need to meet that need.
Companions
Supernova mode also allows you to recruit companions. However, it is easier to lose them - their death
during a battle is permanent. If your companion dies, then you won't be able to resurrect them. Also,
their personal quest will end in failure (provided it was active at the moment of death).
To avoid losing a companion in The Outer Worlds, you must adjust their behavior. Go to the panel of the
selected companion. There, you will find a tab dedicated to the actions of that particular hero. Set the desired
attack distance to "far" or "medium" and the weapon to "ranged". This way, your friends will be less
prone to injury.
You should also go to the companions' weapons menu and get rid of melee weapons. To minimize
the risk of death, you should also remove a grenade launcher and light machine gun from their inventory.
Even though these are powerful weapons, they are characterized by a relatively short range. This increases
the risk of death.
Combat
Fights in Supernova mode require you to be much more careful. Your opponents are more resistant to
damage. To eliminate the enemies effectively, you need to look for their weak spots. Use Tactical Time
Dilation - it allows you to examine your opponent without the risk that they will suddenly change
their position or shoot at you.
When facing living opponents, look for body parts uncovered by armor. As for robots, you have to target
open electronic components.
It is also very important to use covers. Usually, your character will die after a few shots. Melee weapons
and fighting in open space are two very risky things. You should also always carry healing items. To
maximize their healing capabilities, develop the Medical attribute.
How to gain experience quickly?

In The Outer Worlds, experience allows you to develop and improve the hero. By accumulating enough
experience points, the character gains new levels - this gives you the opportunity to increase statistics, buy
new perks and use better equipment. Read this page to learn how to quickly and easily earn experience in
The Outer Worlds.
Killing enemies
Each enemy killed gives you experience points.
Each kill rewards you with experience points - the more difficult the opponent, the more experience you get.
At the beginning of the game, you may have trouble defeating some opponents. However, it is worth
knowing that you get experience points even by killing non-aggressive enemies - this is especially useful
in the beginning of the game.
Using skills in dialogues
During dialogues, you should choose dialogue options where the success depends on a given ability.
During conversations with other characters, you will often be able to select dialogues related to the selected
skills. You can recognize this type of dialogue option by the name written in front of it. The higher
the level of this skill, the greater the chance of success - if you succeed, you will get a few experience points.
Discovering locations
You get experience points by discovering new locations - explore the regions carefully.
You get experience points by reaching new locations - this applies not only to large locations, but also
the smaller ones (for example, shops in cities). Therefore, it is worth carefully exploring all locations and
explore the entire map.
Completing quests
The majority of the quests will provide you with a large dose of experience points.
The last way is to complete quests. Each completed quest rewards you with experience points - the
main quests give you the most xp. Quests combines all of the ways of gaining experience points listed above.
In most quests, you will discover new locations, speak with characters or kill enemies.
How to easily get a companion?

Companions in The Outer Worlds are very helpful. In addition to having an ally during battles, companions
can also carry part of your loot, and also increases the statistics of your hero. There are many different
companions to choose from and some of them can be unlocked at the beginning of the game. Read this page
to learn how to easily and quickly get a companion in The Outer Worlds.
How to unlock Parvati?
Parvati is the easiest companion to get.
Parvati is the first companion - she can be recruit during the first main quest. Reach Edgewater town - you
do this during Stranger in a Strange Land main quest. There, you have to speak with the mayor named
Reed. Say that you want to be accompanied by Parvati, an engineer.
How to increase the carrying capacity?

In The Outer Worlds, your character's load capacity determines how many items you can store in the
inventory. The greater the load capacity, the more loot you can collect while exploring the world. This is
especially important at the beginning of the game when it is necessary to collect everything you come across
- you can sell them to get a few bits, the in-game currency. Read this page to learn how to increase the
capacity of the character in The Outer Worlds.
You can increase the load capacity by getting certain perks.
The way to increase the load capacity is to buy the right perks. There are three perks that can help you with
this:
1. Pack Mule - additional 50 kg carrying capacity.

2. Super Pack Mule - additional 100kg carrying capacity.
3. Pack of Pack Mules - additional 40 kg carrying capacity thanks to the companions.
HOW TO UNLOCK NEW PERKS?

You can get new perks by leveling up. Check "How to gain experience quickly?" page to learn how to gain
experience.
How to get ammunition?

Ammo in The Outer Worlds is useful throughout the entire game (unless you fight only with melee weapons).
You can find a lot of ammunition while exploring the world - by looting dead enemies or opening various
stashes. However, this may not be enough - because of that you should learn a way to acquire more
ammunition, regardless of the type of weapon you are using.
A Few Bits More perk is very helpful in finding ammo.
A universal way of getting more ammo is to unlock a perk called A Few Bits More. It increases the amount
of ammunition available in shops by 100%. Get this perk at the beginning of the game. Then, buy
ammunition whenever you talk to a trader. Thanks to this perk, you will quickly get a lot of ammunition.
How to get a better weapon?

Weapons in The Outer Worlds help you kill enemies more effectively. Thanks to more powerful weapons, you
will defeat enemies quicker. You will also be able to explore more challenging parts of the world. Read this
page to learn how to quickly get a better weapon in The Outer Worlds. The following weapon options can be
used by various character builds and gameplay styles.
Assault Rifle
Go to the place marked in red.
Assault Rifle is a great choice at the very beginning of the game - you will find it in the first region called
Emerald Vale District. Even if you plan to use a different type of weapon, the Assault Rifle is well suited for
weakening or killing opponents from a distance. The easiest way to get this weapon is to visit the place
marked on the map above - it is located in Emerald Vale Community Center, near the town called
Edgewater.
Look for a corpse surrounded by mines.
There, you have to find a corpse surrounded by mines. The safest way to disable the mines is to shoot them
from a distance - the explosions won't deal damage to your character. Examine the corpse - you will find an
Assault Rifle and ammunition.
How to holster a weapon?

The default way of movement in The Outer Worlds is walking with a weapon. This doesn't affect the behavior
or reactions of the NPCs, but can affect your immersion. Talking to characters or traveling the world without
holding the weapon in our hands constantly will give us a little more immersion. Read this page to learn how
to holster a weapon in The Outer Worlds.
Hold down the interaction button to holster your weapon.
Holstering a weapon is very simple - just hold the interaction key. The table below shows the default
interaction button used in The Outer Worlds:
Platform Button
PC
Xbox One
PlayStation 4
How to reset character development?

The number of builds in The Outer Worlds can make you want to reset skill and perk points and choose a
different build. Fortunately, there is an easy way. On this page of the guide, you will learn how to reset the
skills and perks of your hero - this way you will be able to create a better build.
Enter the spaceship and reach the top part of the left room.
To reset skill and perk points, you need to go to your spaceship - you will get access to it in the first main
mission meaning that you can reset your character right from the beginning. Enter the spaceship (you can
use the fast travel option) and then go to the room on the left. Find the ladder in the right corner and go
up.
Then, use the machine presented above.
The machine presented in the picture is in the upper part of the room. This is where you can reset your
character development - this process costs you 500 bits. You get all skill and perk points back - you can
allocate them again. It is also useful to know that the process can be repeated, so if you have enough bits,
you can check out other builds.
What perks to initially choose?

The choice of perks in The Outer Worlds should be well considered. Your character can reach up to level 30,
allowing you to purchase only 15 perks (you get a point with every two levels). It is impossible to determine
which perks are the best in The Outer Worlds - their selection depends on the build and the way the game is
played. However, there are a few perks that are great for starting the game and fit most character builds. On
this page you will learn which perks to choose when starting the game.
Best perks to start with
Some perks can be called the best to start with.
No matter which character you choose, in The Outer Worlds it's worth paying attention to the perks below.
They can be safely called the best perks to start with - choosing them will definitely make the initial
gameplay easier.
1. Toughness - +50% health points. No matter whether you fight at a distance or in close combat.
Extra health points are always useful and greatly increase the chances of survival.
2. A Few Bits More - +100% additional ammunition available from vendors. This perk becomes useless
only when you're fully focused on melee and never use ranged weapons. In other cases, ammunition
collection is improved.
3. Pack Mule - + 50 kg character's load capacity. At the beginning of the game it is worth to collect all
the items to then sell them to vendors. The additional load capacity of the character will allow you to
collect more loot while exploring the world.
4. Lone Wolf or All For One - the choice depends on whether you travel alone or with a companion.
The first perk increases your damage by 25% if you don't have a team. The second gives + 50%
experience points for enemies killed by comrades.
5. Harvester-provides 15% health points for each kill. This allows you to restore health in combat
without Using the Adreno.
LIST OF ALL PERKS

development, abilities and assets.
How to regenerate health?

Health regeneration in The Outer Worlds is extremely important. During the battle, you will constantly lose
health, so you need to know how to heal-otherwise you will quickly die. On this page you will learn how to
treat wounds in The Outer Worlds. You will also learn ways to temporarily increase health or speed up
automatic health recovery.
How to heal?
An item called Adreno is used for treatment.
In the beginning, it is worth mentioning that in The Outer Worlds health is restored automatically, but this is
a slow process and occurs only outside the battle-then you will often have to use the appropriate items. The
most important curing item is Adreno - you will find it during exploration or at some merchants. You can
use Adreno directly from your inventory, but if you pin it into the Emergency Medical Inhaler, you will be
able to instantly restore health without having to open your inventory.
In The Outer Worlds there are also other items that affect health. For example, Fast Ration Pill accelerates
natural health recovery by 200%, and Fish sticks increase the maximum amount of health by 25% for 2
minutes. In turn, the acquisition of a perk called Harvester will make it so that after each kill you get 15%
health.
Are there micropayments?

The recent popularity of paid add-ons in games may rise the question - are there micropayments in the Outer
Worlds? This page answers this question. You will learn here if you can buy additional inventory, whether to
quickly improve the figure with real money.
There are no micropayments in the Outer Worlds.
The short answer is - there are no micropayments in The Outer Worlds. There is no way to buy better
weapons or perks using real money - after buying the game you get full content and progress only happens
during normal gameplay. No purchase offers were announced by Studio Obsidian Entertainment already
before the launch of production. The only option to expand the title can be full-fledged add-ons (DLC).
HOW TO PLAY THE OUTER WORLDS?
Just starting the fun with the game? We invite you to read the 10 best starting tips - you will learn there
what you should focus on at the very beginning of the game.
How to store items?

A variety of items in The Outer Worlds can force the need to save the acquired loot. The inventory of
characters is limited, so not always you will be able to carry all weapons. Storing weapons and armor is
especially useful when you're testing different hero builds, and changing your weapon type for a while. On
this site, you will learn how and where to store items in The Outer Worlds.
Where to store items?
Items can be put in most containers and boxes.
Items in The Outer Worlds can be stored in most containers and crates - if possible, when approaching a
container or box you will see the option to transfer loot. So the items left behind will not disappear and
will remain in the same place until you take them. The best option, however, is to use the box, which is
in the captain's room on the ship. To unlock access to the specified room, you must complete the Comes Now
the Power mission and restore power to the ship-the room will be opened - and you will get a container with
unlimited space.
MORE LOAD CAPACITY.
It's also a good idea to increase the character's payload. See the page " how to increase the load capacity of
the character?" to learn more.
How and where to sleep?

Sleeping in The Outer Worlds plays a very important role if you play on the Supernova difficulty level.
Otherwise, this action isn't that significant, but of course, you can take advantage of it at any time. This page
has all the information about resting - how, where and why to sleep in The Outer Worlds?
Why should I sleep?
Lack of sleep in Supernova mode negatively affects the character's skills.
Sleep is essential if you decide to play on the Supernova difficulty level. If your character doesn't
sleep, they will become tired. This negatively affects your skills. The higher the fatigue level, the bigger the
skill penalty, and in extreme cases, your character will simply die. On other difficulty levels, sleep can be
used, for example, to speed up the time to quickly get rid of negative effects or to change the time of day.
TIPS FOR SUPERNOVA MODE
The Supernova difficulty level can be a great challenge. Check "How to survive in Supernova mode?" page to
learn tips that should help you survive in this mode.
Where to sleep?
Your spaceship has a few beds.
Important note - in Supernova mode, you can only sleep in your spaceship. Your bed is in your room -
it is located on the upper floor, on right side of the ship. It is worth noting that you get access to the room
after completing Comes Now the Power. As for the other difficulty levels, you can sleep in any bed.
ALL ABOUT THE UNRELIABLE
Want to know more information about the Unreliable, that is, about your spaceship? Check this page.
Can you romance in the game?

Today's games often allow you to pursue a romance with a NPC in the game. You will meet a lot of complex
characters during your playthrough in The Outer Worlds. Is it possible to establish a deeper relationship with
them? This tutorial page answers this question.
Comrades often have something interesting to say.
The answer is short - there is no possibility to romance in The Outer Worlds. You can create the
deepest bonds with your companions. Each of them has a unique character and reacts differently to the
situations in which you participate, so it is worth communicating with them. While your character doesn't
have the ability to romance, the theme hasn't been completely omitted. Drinking Saphire Wine is a good
example - during it you can help Parvati in the matters of the heart.

Stranger in a Strange Land - Emerald Vale

Stranger in a Strange Land is the first main quest in The Outer Worlds. This quest is your main reason to
stay in Edgewater. This page has a detailed description of the quest.
Objectives list
 Find Hawthorne's ship;
 Find the power regulator;
 Reroute power from the geothermal power plant;
 Take the power regulator;
 Return aboard The Unreliable;
 Install the power regulator;
 Talk to ADA.
Searching for the starship

The mission will start automatically as soon as you land. Your first task is to get inside the ship
belonging to your would-be pilot. Follow the only available path. You get to the cave, where you will meet
Guard Pelham.
Talk to him (if you have enough Medical points, you can treat him) and convince him to give you his
weapon. Thanks to this, you will be able to blow up the barrels blocking the passage.
Moving on, you will encounter two groups of marauders. You can either kill them or avoid. As for the first
group, it is better attack them. They have a lot of supplies that you can take.
After dealing with the marauders, go to the area with the ship. Talk to the soldiers nearby. Use
persuasion to make them help you clear the area from marauders.
Searching for the power regulator

Then, board the ship. You will find an onboard computer named ADA. Speak with it. This way you will learn
that the ship is damaged and a power regulator is required to repair it.
Get out of the ship and talk to the soldiers again. Then, go to Edgewater. This city is the headquarters of
the mayor - Reed. Go inside and take the elevator to the upper floor. That way you will get to the overseer.
Talk to him about your problem. You learn that in order to get the power regulator, it is necessary to
reactivate the Geothermal plant and redirect the energy. However, this has its consequences - Botanical
Labs, inhabited by rebellious ex-citizens of the settlement, will lose its energy.
During this conversation, you will also get an opportunity to get a new party member. That person
is called Parvati and she is an engineer. Talk to her if you decide to recruit this person - she advises you to
talk to the local pastor (this is not required, however, if you talk to him, you will get The Illustrated Manual
side quest).
Then, go to the Botanical Labs. Talk to Adelaide, the leader of deserters. She will ask you to do the
same thing as Reed - to redirect energy from the power plant.
Your next stop is the power plant. Deal with the robots patrolling the area and then go inside. Follow the
corridors and eliminate more robots. At some point, you will reach the location shown in the image
below:
You find a ladder leading to the lowest floor. You meet a man named Higgins who has a card to reset
the system.
After that, go to the main control room. Use Higgins's card to reset the system. The redirection is,
however, impossible to perform. To change this, you need to pull the three levers in this location.
After completing this task, you can return to the control room and decide to whom you want to redirect
power.
Time for the last part of the quest. Go back to Reed to learn where the power regulator is, take the part
and then take it to the ship. Talk to ADA and install the device.
Comes Now the Power - Emerald Vale

Comes Now the Power is the second main quest. This one is connected to the division prevailing in
Edgewater. This page of the guide The Outer Worlds includes a walkthrough of this quest.

 Deliver the message to Reed;
 Talk to the pastor (optional);
 Reroute power from the power plant;
 Reprogram the machines (optional);
 Return to Reed.
Note: This quest is performed in parallel with Stranger in a Strange Land quest.
Visiting Edgewater
You start the quest by talking to Reed. You are asked to deliver information about the planned blackout
in the rebel camp.
If you have Parvati in your team, then you can talk to her - she will advise you to talk to the local pastor.
Visiting the Biotanical Labs
Your next goal is Botanical Labs. Go there and talk to Adelaide, the leader of the deserters. She has the
same request as Reed - redirect power from the power plant. The difference is that you need to
divert the power from the Botanical Labs.

corridors and eliminate more robots. At some point, you will reach an oval room with an object
resembling a core.
You find a ladder leading to the lowest floor. You meet a man named Higgins who has a card to reset
the system.
You can now go to the control room. Use Higgins's card to reset the system. Then, go through the

 Talk to Minister Clark;
 Talk to the Minister's guards (optional);
 Receive the Minister's parcel from HPS (optional);
 Investigate the Chairman's office;
 Get Dimethyl Sulfoxide;

The quest is activated immediately after completing the Radio Free Monarch quest. Phineas will ask you to
obtain a substance called Dimethyl Sulfoxide. Its entire stock is in Byzantium and controlled by The
Board. Finally, you will also get a navkey for the city docks.
Talk to Minister Clark
While heading to Byzantium, choose the landing pad at the docks. This way you can immediately talk to
Phineas's contact - Carmen Imagawa. She will explain to you that Minister Clarke has Dimethyl
Sulfoxide.
250
Your next goal is to get to the Minister's house. There are two ways to get there. The first is to go to the
local bar. You will meet a guard named Mayfield. Talk to the guard and buy him 3 Spectrum Vodka.
After that, he will go to sleep. You can take his key to the Minister's residence. You will have to use the
residence's back doors. Otherwise, you will be stopped by a security guard.
The second option is to get inside while being disguised as a courier. If you talk to the security guard at the
main entrance, you will learn that Clarke regularly receives parcels from HPS.
To get inside, you can go to the specified location. There, you can break into the warehouse and steal a
package. Be careful not to be caught by the guard. Go to the residence with the package - you will be
allowed inside.

During the conversation, you will learn that Dimethyl Sulfoxide is in possession of Chairman Rockwell. The
Minister will also ask you to send a message to the Earth. If you agree, you will start The Lying Earth quest.
Investigate the Chairman's office

Your next destination is the HHC building in the Acropolis. If you have completed Balance Due quest, you
will get there without any problems. Otherwise, you will have to go through the tunnels - this
solution requires Lockpick ability on a sufficient level.
When you get to the upper floor, head to the door located to the left of the office entrance. Open
them with the key received from the Minister. Platt will talk to you but this doesn't mean you are in
trouble.
Go through the hole in the wall - you will access Rockwell's office. Go to the terminal and read the
message. Then, print the minister key. Now you can go to the Ministry of Accuracy and Morale.
250
Get Dimethyl Sulfoxide

Dimethyl Sulfoxide is stored in the Ministry's undergrounds. This area is guarded - there is a high risk
of getting detected. If you haven't got a UDL ID card yet, this is your chance to find it. This way you will
avoid trouble.
However, before that happens, check the coded terminal located in the room to the left of the entrance. If
you hack it, you can read Caroline's message about a man named Theodore.
Next, reahc the upper floor and talk to the author of the message. If you use the information written in it, the
woman will help you enter the lab. Follow her and wait until the guard lets you in. You can now reach
the bottom without any problems.
250
Unfortunately, the doctor's help won't work on the lower floor. If you want to avoid stealth, go to the first
door on the right of the elevator. There, you can find a card that will allow you to camouflage. With its help,
you will be able to go through the lab without any problems.
When you reach the room with Dimethyl Sulfoxide, the first thing you should do is to head to the
terminal and get 26,371% of the substance. Then, take the tank and leave the building.

door and turn left again. You'll reach a room with a terminal which allows you to establish
connection with Unreliable. The same room contains a key to the bridge that will allow you to continue
forward.
After leaving the room, go straight. You'll reach an elevator that will deliver you to the bridge. You can make
the jump from there. This is the moment when you decide which side of the conflict you want to
stand on. If you support Phineas, then Hope must skip to Terra 2, and if you want to support the Halcyon,
then you have to skip to Tartarus. Depending on your choice, the rest of the task will go differently.
Skip to Tartarus
If you decided to travel to Tartarus, your task will be to return to Unreliable Once you're up there, you
will speak to Chairman Rockwell, and the task will be completed.
Skip to Terra-2

be different depending on your choice, and you'll need to face a different boss - Sophia or Phineas.
Once you land on Tartarus, you'll be intercepted by the guards on site. You can convince your
interlocutor to give you an guard ID. If the check was successful, you'll be able to walk around the base
freely.
Leave the ship and travel to the elevator. If you helped Junlei on Pioneer, she'll appear at the docks and
help with the attack.
Now you have to move through a large hall. Your destination is a first floor door located on the other
side of the hall. The door leads to a maze.
250
You'll need to proceed through further levels to finally reach an elevator. Here, you'll receive support from a
party which you've supported on Monarch. One of the levels contain a locked door. You can unlock it
using the nearby terminal. Now, depending on the chosen side of the conflict, you'll encounter:
1. Halcyon - Chairman Rockwell's body;

2. Phineas - Chairman Rockwell, with whom you can talk or kill.
The last elevator will lead you to your final opponent - Sophia or Phineas. The encounter begins with
a conversation. During it, you can convince them to give up. However, if you don't succeed, you will have to
fight them.
250
R. A. M
During the final battle, you'll face R.A.M - a battle robot. R.A.M is a powerful and durable machine, equipped
with shields. His only weak point is the battery sticking out of his back. As a result, you'll have to constantly

 Take Bertie Cotton's finger
 Take Guillaume Antrim's finger
 Hand over Dr. Maybell's finger
 Hand over Bertie Cotton's finger
 Hand over Guillaume Antrim's finger
Go to the police station in Edgewater. Enter inside and talk to Constable Reyes. During the conversation,
the woman will ask you to deliver the fingers of three marauders. Their locations are as follows:
Bertie Cotton [1] is in the area of a small depot of containers. You have to be careful because he can
stand on the roof of one of the constructions. If you don't sneak, he can spot you.
250
There should be no other marauders in the area during this task, so Bertie is a relatively easy target,
especially if you are with a companion. Remember to get his finger before you go to the next location.
Dr. Maybell [2] will cause you more problems. She is in a cave inhabited by marauders. Don't try to force
your way in. Instead, attack the enemy patrolling the area near the entrance. You will attract the attention
of other opponents. They will run out - you can use the surrounding rocks as covers. After the fight, take
Maybelle's finger.
Note: The location in which the third marauder - Guillaume Antrim - resides is related to A Few Kindred
Spirits side quest. If you got to the Botanical Labs and promised to find Zoe, you can complete both tasks
at the same time.
250
Guillaume Antrim [3] is also accompanied other marauders. The safest way to fight them is to stand
