Should you help Kaur or Milverstreet

Siding with Kaur or Milverstreet leads to different outcomes in the quest The Saboteur of Paradise in The Outer Worlds 2. Learn what happens in the story should you side with Kaur or Milverstreet!

List of Contents

MoonmanAttention! This guide will contain both minor and major spoilers for various parts of the game.

Side with Kaur or Milverstreet Outcomes

Kaur or Milverstreet
Choice Result
Side with Kaur Triggers Above and Beyond Repair side quest. Locks you out of Milverstreet's questline.

Allows you to get the Gas-Energy Deflection Apparatus early.

Questline has more direct combat, leading to higher XP gain but longer missions.
Side with Milverstreet Triggers A Refreshing Bit of News side quest. Locks you out of Kaur's questline.

Allows you to evacuate Westport, making it a safe alternative in a key decision during The Saboteur of Paradise.

Allows you to spawn inside the Vox Relay using the Writ of Conscription.

Choosing to side with either one will significantly affect how you approach the Vox Relay in The Saboteur of Paradise quest as Kaur and Milverstreet will provide you with different quests that lead to different outcomes.

While it is possible to decline any assistance and head directly to the Vox Relay, it is recommended to side with either Kaur or Milverstreet to access more content and rewards.

The Saboteur of Paradise Walkthrough

Should You Side with Kaur or Milverstreet?

Side with Kaur if You Prefer Combat over Diplomacy

Kaur
Unique Rewards ・Designator Triple Barrel Shotgun
・Kaur's Kuirras
・Kaur's Corroder

Siding with Kaur will prove to be more challenging due to its longer questline that involves a multitude of combat encounters. However, this also means that you'll get a lot more XP and rewards. If your character build is combat oriented, siding with Kaur will be a better fit for you.

Get the Gas-Energy Deflection Apparatus Early

The Gas-Energy Deflection Apparatus is a gadget that allows you to pass through dense zyranium fields without dying. It can be obtained by siding with either Kaur or Milverstreet, but you'll get this gadget earlier if you side with Kaur.

Should you choose to side with Milverstreet, you'll have to seek out the gadget on your own by doing the An Aegis Against the Miasma side quest.

Side with Milverstreet to Make Infiltrating the Vox Relay Easier

Milverstreet
Unique Rewards ・Topmost Coat (Armor)
・Limited Production Gentleman's Oxonian (Hat)

By siding with Milverstreet, you gain the favor of Vigilant Hogarth. This Protectorate figure will help smuggle you into the Vox Relay without having to enter combat, making this a go-to option for players who prefer diplomacy or stealth combat.

However, unlike Kaur's questline, you'll only reap the benefits of this questline if you have non-combat skills leveled. This route is a better fit for players who have invested significant points into skills like Speech or Hack.

Side with Milverstreet to Get a Safe Crash Location

Set Crash Destination

By siding with Minister Milverstreet, you'll be able to evacuate Westport , turning it into a safe crash location for the Vox Relay during the main quest, The Saboteur of Paradise.

This is a particularly useful alternative to have especially if you don't have Hack 4 or the Lucky trait. Without a safe target, you'll have to choose which settlement goes up in flames - Westport or Fairfield.

Siding with Kaur Does Not Give a Safe Crash Location

While siding with Kaur rewards more gear and XP, this choice does not give you a safe crash location. You'll have to sabotage Westport on your own to make the people leave in order to make Westport a safe crash location.
