The Empire replaces the Holy Nation. There's a recruitment center in Stoat. Joining the Empire gets your rep up to 100, which is enough to buy AT-STs from roaming Imperial squads.

There's also a vendor outside of Stoat next to a garage that will sell you a contract to hire a landspeeder for 10k. You'll need to find available landspeeders out in the world to hire, but there was one beside the garage the first time I got there.

Mandalorians are in Leviathan Coast.

Fog Islands is spooky town.

B1 battle droids are squad members.

All other droids qualify as "beasts"

Any clue what all the different rankings/grades/types of lightsabers are? I've seen two different grades of quality and red/green/blue/purple saber colors so far on different Sith/Jedi but I don't know if theres a location to get high quality sabers or a way to craft better ones

I dont remember what exact ones are in the recipes but you can buy recipes from the jedi or sith outpost.
Trying to leave it spoiler free but below here is just straight up info so read as you will:


=========================================================================



I can confirm you can craft them. I think the new weapon grades are:

Prototype MK I - IV
Standard MK I - IV
Advanced MK I-IV
Masterwork MK I-IV

I've made Yellow, Purple, Blue, Green, Orange. I've seen Red. I might be forgetting a color or two.

one handed, two handed, double bladed, ringed. These so far for me could be I or II

This is just based off my crafter and the Weapon Bench III.
I'm sure theres a few more forms and maybe a color.
Seems normal weapons also can retain part of their old grades/ranks (Standard, Advanced, Catun, edgewalker) those are at least the types I have in my various inventories so I assume most of them I've bought or stolen off dead npcs

I've only crafted Red and Purple one handed two handed and double bladed. I'd imagine the Jedi village sells the Blue and Green variants. Where are the Yellow and Orange? I haven't even heard of the Ringed lightsabers as well, are those blueprints purchased somewhere?

Are darktroopers recruitable?

I don't think so, but you can unlock their armor with GCW tokens at your workbench. I bought the armor blueprints when I went to their HQ.

I'm not sure what would be defined as "spoilers" but here's more stat info. I only marked off a character's name and an item they own, in case anyone wants to discover them on their own.

Something I figured out that ought to be clarified: the I and II for any type of lightsaber is just how it looks. I has more Jedi-ish looks while II is more Sith-ish. For example, the One-handed lightsaber I of any color is literally Anakin's lightsaber model. I didn't really recognize any other character based ligthsaber designs. I thought initially the I and II determined the quality of the ligthsaber, but that is not the case. Only the style. I think those are all the colors available.

Then there's special lightsabers in the world that are special shapes, colors, and not craftable. The only one I found so far is a Cyan lightsaber with the Dooku/Ventress design from this character - The Death Witch of Kathun .

Lastly, I want to add that the One-handed (OH), Two-handed (TH), and Double Bladed (DB) each have different stats. The OH and DB appear to be the exact same with respect to cutting damage multiplier, but they require katana and polearm skill respectively. Also, the moveset for the DB saber is different in some ways but shares moves with the other sabers like force push and the giga jump of death lol. Not sure if it's any better but it certainly looks cool. the OH and TH share the same exact moveset from what I can gather. OH has increased defense stat but decreased attack stat. TH is the inverse; increased attack and decreased defense. Also, the TH has slightly less cutting, but also some blunt damage, meaning that it's the only lightsaber I'm aware of that scales with both strength and dexterity.

I've been trying to find this NPC for a minute now, as I'ave already beaten all the other new mod bosses the game introduces, is there any way you could give me the location for them?

No problem! I'll spoiler it out for others.

The Fog Islands. I first encountered her fighting a horde of zombies. It was quite the show as every time she swung her blade a zombie would lose a limb or be downed. Unfortunately with how Kenshi works, it was only a matter of time before she was probably downed and taken to a pole to be eaten. I stopped seeing her after the first week I made a settlement there. Been a month in-game now and still no sign of her, so I imported without NPC deaths to see if I could find her again. Might be why you haven't spotted her if you searched there already.

I'm having a rough time finding healing supplies. Is there a reason for this, or am I missing something?

The original Kenshi med-bandages are on most humanoids NPC's, but there's a different picture for the medium and advanced medkits. A common place to purchase them are the shops that sell backpacks.

Unless you're referring to the actual "Medical Supplies" item, in which case those are craftable after you reach a certain tech, or found in ancient labs. I never really found them in any other place.

Is there more than one mandalorian clan?

Only one I've encountered is the one in Leviathan Coast, but I haven't explored much of the north yet.
