Balmorra · Strike-team investigation: step-by-step mission guide

By Imperial Dark Sector

Distant Early Warning

Required previous story: Lives in the Balance. If this mission is absent, finish that prerequisite and inspect the class journal, ship holoterminal or listed contact before attempting an unrelated planetary mission.

1. Find the class mission: Open the Mission Log, track Distant Early Warning and check the purple objective. Do not use a yellow planetary quest as a substitute.
2. Reach its correct area: Balmorra; approach Doc at the class-story marker near the Republic-controlled approach. Check the full world map, taxi destinations and interior floor selector; the objective may be inside a separate story phase.
3. Complete the objective: Activate the assigned false distress signals to draw Imperial forces away from Sobrik before the assault on the tactical base.
4. Finish the handoff: Follow Warren Sedoru's lead and begin Tactical Advantages.

Historical reference only: Doc's historical catalog location: 32, -458. Map positions come from the published quest catalog and have not been checked against the current game client.

Stuck or uncertain? If a distress beacon appears inside an inaccessible building, check the mission map's area and floor labels before leaving the district.

Quest order, contact and objective: Swtorista / Exarch Jedi Knight quest catalog. Exact door locations, elevators and current client screenshots have not been independently playtested.
