The reward for doing rescue the exo pilot for the scavenger faction.

[SpacePirateKatz666]

It is stated that one of the reward is recruit pilot.

Do we get a new character to play with ? or is this just stand in for a new feature for a later version ?

I didn't manage to do it, as I still way far away from getting the rig to be able to carry the exo pilot I thought I asked as I was curious.

No, you can add bot in your group in Squad menu.
Pilot, for example, after quest complete.
Also you can hire Old man, Cultist or Mule in shop/vendor.

you can carry her in any rig, she will use "large item" slot, hard part is to find a small mech and survive till it will be blown off by atackers (its ofthen they cant disable the mech), after it new merc will be available within "ready room" "hire merc" slot.
idk about quality of npc - i have my trauma from mule which is useless and i dont want npc to die in vain

mule is great as a spawn drop point. Take a mule, start mission, press B, they will hold the position. then you use the spawn as a dropoint, so you can press "loot all" on every body until they are full (can also hold 3 weapons). Just tried that on scrapyard and it worked wonders. I Don't know if HK will go specifically after them or not in other maps though.

This is one of those missions that I just can't seem to complete. I can literally never find a downed exo suit.

Down it yourself. Go mech trench (elevator), destroy the mech in front of spawn with grenade launcher. Loot the pilot. Easiest 100k money and 20k xp of the game this way

Problem with your plan - having a grenade launcher.

You can buy it for 90k at the EU merchant after selling every crap you get to him to push him to trust lvl 3. And then use mask man/old man/bag man to be able to use it. Alternativelly, the M79 grenade launcher (quest reward) can be carried by the two others characters. There is also the NWS-20 (quest reward) sniper that can do the trick quite fast (but again not every character canuse it). IDK how dangerous it is, but a full dump of a 32 shell AA12 might do the trick, I'll try it next time.

Really thought we would get a cool exo suit to team with us if we rescued the pilot. Turns out you get a very "mid" npc hire using a smg. The 100k reward is nice. Paved the way for many of my upgrades.

[Akameka]

the 20k XP reward is even nicer
