The Repair Job Walkthrough

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

# Walkthrough
1
To start the Repair Job mission, you must first clear the Builders of a Legacy story mission and have Lin's affinity to 1 heart. It can be accepted by going inside the BLADE Barracks in the Administrative District and then interact with The Repair Job's Affinity Mission icon.
▶ Chapter 3: Builders of a Legacy
2
After accepting The Repair Job, leave the BLADE barracks and head to the West Gate. Then, use the Follow Ball (R+X) to find Bart. A cutscene will play, and you will then be tasked to head to the Starfall Basin.
3
Your next task is to collect three L-002 Power Cables by examining the nearby White Whale Debris, which are marked on your map. After collecting all three, return to Bart in NLA to repair the machine.
4
During the cutscene with Bart, a choice will pop up, grumble or persist. This choice will affect the rest of the objectives of The Repair Job and also its rewards.
▶ Should You Grumble or Persist?

Agree With Lin Route (Persist)

# Walkthrough
1
If you persisted and sided with Lin, you will need to gather more collectibles. The four Cruise Deflector AiRs in Oblivia and two Energy Tubes from Puge in Primordia will already be marked on your map.
2 The last collectible you need to gather for The Repair Job are five White Cometites. Use the FrontierNav to mine for White Cometites. Make sure to set mining probes in multiple locations to improve your chances as this part can take some time.
▶ How to Get White Cometites
6
Once you have gathered all required materials, return to Bart and hand them over to complete The Repair Job.

Agree With Tatsu Route (Grumble)

Grumble

If you agree with Tatsu, The Repair Job will end immediately and you will obtain its rewards.

Should You Grumble or Persist?

Choice Consequence
Grumble ・The mission immediately ends
Earn less rewards (9,000 Credits and 160 EXP)
Persist ・You will need to complete more objectives
・Earn more rewards (10,000 Credits and 170 EXP)

Since The Repair Job is Lin's affinity mission, it is only right to persist and side with her. Also, you will get more rewards if you sided with Lin as shown in the table above.
