Gathering/sharing Yaki Plot Rewards info

[Sol]

I have done some steps of the Yaki plot and im looking to share as far as rewards go to find the step combos i havent done yet.

A. Distant Shores ship delivery choice
1. Terran SS handover, Moreya is removed, gifted a Katana, has MK shields, Engine, Terran mk pulses, the Katana gets the Yaki IFF for the plot duration until the AMP is attacked, presumably gets a scripted fight with some Xenon on first entry into Savage Spur on the Katana since its not a yaki ship

2.? guessing here, but taking the moreya to Boso lets you keep it, installs the IFF for plot, no xenon battle. ( IFF past plot?? dunno if thats possible)

Fate of the Yaki Choices

1. Destroy Amp and Report that the Yaki are Disorganised, no nav beacon trail due to amp destruction.

Yaki rep gets to the early 20s, small variation due to Kurokami kills while destroying the AMP, you can maximise plot rep gains if you can somehow avoid killing the Yaki during the AMP fight or let NPCS get the killshots, Terrans give you rep and a Syn (has a signal leak you can repair to claim for no damage from spacesupit) Yaki give you nine easy armored lockboxes, has Expectional mod mats, high level seminars, 10 of a Paintjob, and some other modification mats,

you also get a Kurokami with three expectional modifications already installed along with a high skill pilot if you started as Cadet ( I do not know if you get this ship and pilot on Pioneer/Commonwealth starts)

2. Destroy amp, Report Yaki as a Threat.

Gains TER Rep, Syn, Kuro/Pilot on cadet gamestart, havent gotten war of intervention to clear to see if theres unique rewards on it.

3. Report Yaki as Threat / Nav Beacons and use AMP?

No clue on this combo yet, I assume the Syn and TER rep are there at least.

4. Report Yaki as Disorganised / Use AMP

? no idea here either other than the assumed Syn

[Balsin]

I just did the use amp and let the dude reach the terrans. So -30 rep, I got a quest for the lockboxes I didn't bother doing, and got the option to trigger the amp to wreck the terrans.

doing so seemed to make the xenon launch... or spawn in magically a fleet of two Is and etcetra. I won't say they were weak but they didn't get past getsu fune.

It might have spawned in some ships as a reward but I wasn't looking very hard. Just wanted to try the amp.

Why would you get the Syn if you basically BETRAY the people who could give it to you?
You *are* being observed by the terran agents throughout the mission.

Imagine this conversation:

"I uh.. have totally destroyed that AMP-station. Nevermind the Xenon-swarms that rampage around the area, we'll be A-okay!"

- "Excellent work, despite your sensor-logs - which we have - suggest that you actually placed satellites in the regions that are now under attack. It's totally not suspicious, we totally don't have all the evidence we need to put you under arrest! You are a hero, here, have a battlecruiser!"

anyone know waht the rewards are for reporting them as a threat but not destroyingthe amp is for whatever reason i cnat seem to destroy it since their corvettes kill me in less than 10 seconds so i ahve no tiem to dps and the ai alleis jsut derp around followingme doign nothing when i was hoping they would slowly wittle the enemy down for me

[kajanov]

You mention, that the SYN has a signal leak to capture it. Cpuld you point to where?
Thanks

They *do* that. If you stay real close to the station.
You can use the station as cover, too. The Xenon will not hesitate to shoot at you, even though their own station takes the hits.

I assume if you report the Yaki as not a threat first thing after unlocking the sub missions you technecly havent betrayed the Terrans yet until you get the nav beacons down, the Syn is granted after delivering the report on the Yaki threat level, no matter how you report it, independent of the Amp sub quests

Amplifier destruction or use sub missions dont cancel until one of them has reached a definative point where the other cannot be done.\

the Syn has a signal leak on top of its bridge tower i think? i can usualy hear it and locate it in spacesuit scan mode.


And i Really want to know what happens for the intervention war subquest that you get for reporting them as a threat, if theres any more Rep / Ships / Items /Allowed to buy Asgard from shipyard (I have been trying to exammine plot states after completion of steps to see if the Asgard block gets removed. Im really wanting to find out about intervention war but its a slog waiting for the task force to get to the yaki.)

I find that signal-leaks tend to be very close to the bridge/cockpit. The Syn has a fairly prominent bridge-tower, so it's not hard to find.

Hey Hey Everyone.

I'm Planing the Report them as Threat and then do the Beacons. Will update you when it will be done :)

For the Profits! :)

Why does Intervention send the Asgard fleet to destroy the Yaki even before I reported anything?
I just got the Yaki ship from the asteroid... now I have to hurry to talk to them because there will be no talk at all if they get wiped out.
Yaki station is still at 80% hull so it´s doable but i dont think that´s intended, there are just a few Xenon sectors left to roam for them in my game so RNG sends them there I guess.
Aren´t they supposed to NOT know about that location until I tell them?

This must be a bug.

However, it is also an opportunity....

if they sent the Asgard and it goes through those nice Xenon-filled sectors, perhaps a little "accident" would happen to the escorts, and a nice little fleet full of marines could surround the defenseless titan...

Maybe the player is not supposed to explore/discover the sector prior to doing the mission that leads him there.
Anyways I´ve read somewhere on Egosofts forum that they respawn/repair the base if neccessary...

[LazyMKII]

I tried First to declare Yaki as a threat. Received the TER destroyer and the countdown for TER attack started.

Meanwhile I decided to place the beacons. The idea behind is to let TER go to the Xenon/Yaki sectors to destroy them meanwhile Xenons are going to Sol sectors to destroy TER. 2xWar = 2xProfits.

But!

After placing the Last beacon, the poor guy starts to HIGH speed to Mars sector to "report" my behaviour, I tried to "intercept" him By attacking, Making him hostile, letting him get to Mars sector, sending my fighter to attack him on the way to Mars sector etc. ....

he is just stopping and nothing happens... devs .. help please.

Commonwealth start
I destroyed the Amp station and reported that the Yaki are disorganised.
Got a Syn from Terran, a Kurokami from Yaki. Both faction rep increased past 20.

Now... I don't know when.. after a while the Yaki HQ is vanished/destroyed in the sector. Along with my docked Katana... (previously rewarded from Terran).

Idk if it was destroyed by Split or Xenon. The station should be invulnerable.
LucklyI upgraded my license and got all the blueprints before I left the sector.

Its a shame both the unique station and the ship were lost permanently. I'm too far ahead to reload my save...

It´s a bug. Intervention should not arrive until you report the Yaki to Terrans.
Making Yaki a faction requires to kill all Xenon between them and the Highway ring later on. That´s definitely a long term goal for endgame. The station should last until then at least.

Aside from role play, any good reason to report them as major threat? (feels like you do not get anything more than reporting them as minor threat while you get a faction removed and loose potential access to good S/M blueprints)
