Should You Kill Maya?

Kill Maya to Get Her Grendel, Ammo, and Aid

Killing Maya is the best choice to make in this mission, as it rewards players with gear that they can use or sell. However, if you are roleplaying as a noble character and don't need her gear, then Sparing Maya is also a respectable choice.

Note that there are no immediate or long-term consequences for this choice that affect the Freestar Rangers faction questline.
