Jailbreak missions and how to kill the outpost guards.

[Yader]

What's the deal with those jailbreaks? Actually have no idea how to complete it. The guards have some stupid amounts of health, can't be poisoned, overdosed or knocked out with chloral hydrate. And those prisoner bots barely follow you at all so you can't just make a run for the submarine. Literally just why? Not being able to do piracy in a game about submarines is stupid. Any advice on how to kill them? I probably don't need to do that to complete the mission but now i just want to do it out of spite.

An easy solution is by using the infinite power of the workshop to make the guards less of an immovable wall.

an example of one of these mods is this one:

not sure how to help with the jailbreak NPCs though, all npcs are kinda dumb

Thanks. Using a mod feels kinda cheaty but hey the game's cheating too so i guess it's alright.

I find that you can just sneak into the prison, free the prisoners, and order them to run to the submarine and they will usually make it without being shot. Just make sure to have your own crew off the station beforehand, and have someone waiting in the submarine to undock as soon as the mission is complete.

Alternatively, you can use poison on the guards beforehand, use detonators to blow up the guards, or try to distract the guards by getting an assistant to smack one and lead them in circles.

You can also just put on an Exosuit, take some Drugs, and mow down the entire station with a HMG, Grenade Launcher, Combat Shotgun, Fission gun, or some other heavy weapon.

go to an isolated part of the outpost, infect someone with a husk infection, then when they change, the guards will go into the room and start dog piling the husk. While they do that, weld the room door shut. You didn't technically kill anyone, so you won't lose much rep, AND it makes the escape/rescue a walk in the park.
