4. Acquire the Generdyne Passkey from Ayumi Komiko

Starfield - Speak to Ayumi

You can either Pay or Attack Ayumi Komiko to obtain the Generdyne Passkey.

Alternatively, you can also complete the Optional Objective Locate evidence to Extort Ayumi Komiko to avoid paying her credits for the Passkey.

Locate Evidence to Extort Ayumi Komiko (Optional Objective)

# Locate Evidence to Extort Ayumi Komiko ▼
1
Gain Access to Generdyne Industries
Begin by heading to Generdyne Industries and find the receptionist, Ji Nashida. Engage in conversation - express empathy for his frustrations and then steer the topic toward Ayumi Komiko.

A successful Persuasion check will grant you access beyond the lobby.
2
Proceed to Ayumi Komiko’s Office
Once you’re inside, navigate to her office. The environment is busy, so the employees and the guards will ignore you.
3
Locate and Retrieve the Evidence
Inside Komiko’s office, look for a safe positioned to the right of her desk. To avoid being seen, activate the cover switch next to the safe - this will shut the window binds. Access the safe and grab the evidence.
4
Use the Evidence to Extort Ayumi Komiko
Later, return to Komiko at the Euphorika bar in the Member’s Area. Present the evidence to compel her to hand over the keycard. This is a clean, non-violent approach to achieve your goal.

5. Enter Generdyne through the Storage Entrance

Watch our guide above for a perfect stealth walkthrough!

Using the Generdyne Passkey, slip in through the Storage Entrance and make your way toward the power core.Stick to the ducts and vents to stay out of sight, timing your movements for when the security guards and robots look away. Don’t waste time on the tiny cleaning bots - they’re harmless and won’t trigger any alarms.

6. Gain the Encryption Cipher from Breyson Bayu

Starfield - Talk to Breyson Bayu

Talk to Breyson Bayu and ask him for the Encryption Cipher

7. Decrypt the Conduction Grid Data

Starfield - Decrypt Conduction Grid

After obtaining the Cipher, use the Chief Technician's Computer to decrypt the Grid Data.

8. Upload Estelle's Virus

Starfield - Upload Estelle Virus

While still on the computer, open the Generdyne Message System folder to upload the virus.

9. Speak to Benjamin Bayu

Starfield - Speak to Benjamin

Benjamin Bayu will threaten you, and ask who is profiting from the virus you uploaded. You can lie and tell him it was you, Breyson Bayu, or tell the truth and say it was Estelle.

If you betray Estelle, she’ll disappear from Madam Sauvage and won’t be there when you return.

10. Locate Estelle at Madame Sauvage's Place

Starfield - Speak to Estelle Again

If you defended Estelle, she’ll be behind the bar. Speak with Estelle to discuss your recently completed mission.

She will ask you for a cut of the profit you make from this job, but you can choose not to give her Credits, and it will not affect the quest's outcome.

11. Return to the Key

Starfield - Return to the Key

Once you're done on Neon, head back to the Key to report to Naeva.

12. Speak to Naeva

Starfield - Speak to Naeva

Speak to Naeva by the Key entrance to finish the quest, and unlock your next quest: Eye of the Storm.

This guide is missing an entire huge section. Once you enter the facility through the door with the keycard, it is a long stealth through multiple areas to GET to the guy to talk to him. Nowhere in your guide is this mentioned. We are talking a good 20+ min missing from your guide. It's also very buggy with people detecting you.

9. Speak to Benjamin Bayu If you say it was you, you're given a 10k bounty in Neon. Fast Travelled away not sure if it remains.
