[Mission] A Lucrative Opportunity
Says I have to deliver "3X AGI Heuristic Core" to "PAR Paranid Wharf". The mission is given by Scale Plate Pact and I want to finish it but where or who do I sell it to since it cannot be bought by the trader since its illegal to that faction.

I completed this deal, but the guy is totally bugged after, as far as I can tell.

I took the mission, went to the bar and bought the parts I needed. Then when I walked out of the bar, it was directing me back to the bar. I go back in and talk to the guy, and it lets me turn in the mission parts to the guy I just bought them from. I completed it just fine.

But now, I can't sell anything to the guy. I crafted some sort of decrypter that should sell for about 170k Cr, but it won't let me sell it to him.

When you land, the mission guidance should point you to a transporter where you can go to a bar to talk to the guy.

AFAIK those missions are bugged and don't work.

I got a similar mission. The destination was highlighted for me. It led me to a wharf, then an elevator and then a bar (first time I saw a bar on a station) and the NPC Black Marketeer was in there. The funny thing is, I only had one out of three items. So I handed him the one I had and figured I'd have to go kill Xenon to get the other two, but in his shop inventory I saw he was selling the same item and had 16 of them. I bought two off him and then sold them back and the mission completed. Lmao! There was no cash reward, if I remember correctly, but now I have access to the black market through this guy.

Can you first tell me how'd you get to the station? Did you use a ship or teleport? After that what are the destination options when you used the elevator and what did you choose? Thanks in advance.

It's def bugged. Seems to typically not enable the bar as a destination.

The mission guidance just plotted the route for me. I went to the wharf it indicated. When I landed the waypoint led me to an elevator/teleporter. When I used the panel to select the destination, it had "Bar" highlighted. Then I went there and spoke to the NPC. If mission guidance isn't showing you where to go with a waypoint, make sure the mission is set to "active" in your mission log. If it's still not working it might be bugged for you. You could always try checking the wharf to see if it has a bar in that case. Otherwise I'm not sure.

Ok then I'll try it at my end, else it'd be bugged and I'd just have to abort it and get another encounter.

Don't waste your time, Scale Plate Pact can't be increased rep with ATM. Missions don't spawn Turn in NPC's.
Vaenn Dec 16, 2018 @ 10:04pm 
Yeah I get the occassional mission that bugs out with no marker. If you have to abort it's not too big a deal. You can come across these missions again. Good luck!

Is the perk reward even worth it?

The black marketeer just seems to sell the illegal crafting components. The same stuff you can get grinding xenon, for example. So you can still get the stuff, this just makes it easier. Up to you to say whether or not it's worth it.

I've no idea. Ran 3 different missions so far, not 1 with a turn in NPC. And now that I know the Pact is unavailable since reputation gain is gated with it, I see even less of a reason. I'd rather sell teh Spacefly Chaviar.
Harrison Dec 16, 2018 @ 10:13pm 
The only bug I know of with these missions is that if you leave the sector, the bar becomes inaccessible.
