BEFORE YOU DEPLOY
Mission briefing and unlock
Objective: Rescue Jae from Mordant Citadel
How to unlock: Jae Mordant available, Distress Call completed and the Shu-Torun Sympathizers campaign choice resolved.
Protect: Protect Jae and Hawks throughout the attack; do not assume destruction alone completes the mission.
The listed availability window is a community snapshot. Your live HoloTable timer, companion choices and mission survival requirements take priority.
TACTICAL OBJECTIVE CHECKPOINTS
Step-by-step Hero walkthrough
Follow 4 documented checkpoints. Published objective sequences are distinguished from tactical recommendations. The available records do not establish a universal room-by-room route for every mission.
Jump to a checkpoint (4 steps)
- CHECKPOINT 01 OF 4
Locate Generator Aurek
Move to the marked Imperial generator and use the prompt to plant charges. Let the Aurek charges finish priming before abandoning that section of the objective.
Next checkpoint → - CHECKPOINT 02 OF 4
Locate Generator Besh
Follow the updated marker to the second generator. Plant Besh charges, defend the approach and wait for priming rather than treating one interaction as an instant demolition.
Next checkpoint → - CHECKPOINT 03 OF 4
Locate Generator Cresh
Repeat the charge-planting and priming sequence at Cresh. Cover the operator handling the interaction and watch for new enemy pressure after the explosive objective changes.
Next checkpoint → - CHECKPOINT 04 OF 4
Defeat Imperial troops
After the three generator phases, the indexed objective turns to defeating Imperial troops. Maintain cover and check the mission success state before trying to leave the map.

MISSION TROUBLESHOOTING
Stuck? Resolve the objective
The generator objective will not advance
The recorded route distinguishes locating a generator, planting charges and waiting for priming. Complete all three stages for Aurek, Besh and Cresh; walking up to the device is not the same as operating it.

The indexed last stage is Defeat the Imperial Troops. Clear the required defenders after all three charge sequences and verify the mission-complete screen before attempting extraction.

What to do after completing this Hero Mission
There is no verified direct Hero Mission continuation after this assignment in the current index. "No recorded Hero follow-up" is a status note, not a new playable mission link. Review the Den and the current HoloTable before choosing another assignment.
