Tips and Strategies

This is a list of important things to do in the quest Engaging the Empire. Read on to find out which of them is crucial to proceeding.

  • Noct won't get a penalty if he fails to warp-kill soldiers, but he will definitely have a harder time moving around the base
  • Focus on the Maniple's legs! It will become vulnerable and topple over. Do the same whenever faced with an Imperial walker.
  • Use the big guns in the base. Go for the parked tanks--their explosion will help clear the area in a hurry.
  • There are point-warp markers scattered about the base. Use these to quickly make your way through.
