Siow by Siow|

This guide will show you how to unlock and complete the quest The Scavenger in Star Wars Outlaws. Temmin Wexley, the Scavenger Expert, will be able to give Kay upgrades that help her in a wide variety of fields.

How to unlock The Scavenger Quest

To unlock The Scavenger quest, you need to complete the Akiva story mission, The Droidsmith. The following quest, Viper, requires your speeder to traverse over water.

In order to outfit your speeder to hover over water you’ll need to find Temmin Wexley. He’s the Scavenger Expert who can install a Hydrorepulsor onto your speeder.

Searching for Temmin

Your first destination to find Temmin is to make your way to Sashin in the northeast of Akiva. You’ll need to look for Temmin’s family at Sashin.

Walk down the main path of the village and to the right, you’ll find two women under the canopy. Talk to them and you’ll learn that the one to the right is Temmin’s aunt.

They’ll tell you he’ll likely be found looking for scrap at a junkyard near the lake. You’ll need to travel to the west and go to Mount Selasa. You’ll be looking for a red building surrounded by bandits near the lake.

Defeat the bandits surrounding the building and walk to the front door. You’ll start a cutscene where you meet Temmin the Scavenger.

While he can jury-rig a Hydrorepulsor onto your speeder now, he’ll need Durasteel Struts to fully secure it into the speeder.

His Durasteel Struts were stolen by Surat and his men. You’ll need to go to their private island and reclaim the struts.

Surat’s Island Compound

Using your speeder, ride down the river and into the lake to test your Hydrorepulsor upgrade. When you enter the lake, your marker will update and lead you to the island.

Follow your marker south and you’ll find a small island with a pillar of smoke coming out of it. Look for a ramp on the west side of the island you can ride up, ride over the next ramp, and you’ll enter a restricted area.

You’ll find a branch you can use your grappling hook to swing on. Swing to the other side and if you look below you, you’ll find Surat’s men.

Sneak or blast your way through the compound. You’ll find a small cave at the end of the path with a crack you can squeeze through.

The shuttle carrying the stolen struts will take off as soon as you get through the crack. Mount your speeder and follow it (or your compass marker) into Pyke Syndicate territory.

Retrieving the Durasteel Struts

If you have good or excellent reputation with the Pykes, reaching the bandit camp will be no problem. Once you reach the bandit camp, you’ll enter hostile territory.

Sneak through the tall grass to the right and knock out any bandit that gets in your way. At the end of the path, you’ll find a stone pillar with a tree growing on it.

Look up and grab onto the tree branch with your grappling hook. Swing onto the higher platform and take out the bandits here.

One of the bandits up here is a Beastmaster with a massiff. You’ll need to blast the massiff as punching or stunning it won’t work. Take down any remaining bandits up here and loot the chest near the shuttle for the durasteel struts.

After you get the durasteel struts, fast travel to Myrra City and follow your marker to meet up with Temmin.

A cutscene will start and once it’s over, you’ll have your upgraded speeder ready to take on the Viper quest!
