Data Corruption

You have been recruited by Major Tyrus at the Markaran Imperial Outpost to locate an Imperial platoon that hasn't returned from a mission to the Okara Droid Factory. Hopefully the platoon's ranking officer, Lieutenant Rutau, is still alive.

Find Lieutenant Rutau at the Okara Droid Factory.

• Enter Okara Droid Factory
• Speak to Lieutenant Rutau
• Activate Virus on Okara Probe Droids DX
  • Bonus mission: Decommission the Droids
• Return to Lieutenant Rutau

• Lieutenant Rutau   View NPC

  I'm Lieutenant Rutau, Fifth Infantry, Second Battalion, Besh Company. I'd say First Platoon, but there isn't one anymore.

  Ran into unexpected trouble?	Was it your fault?	I see droid wreckage, too. +15 with Mako
  I see you know pain, then.	I've been searching for you.	You look injured. +15 Mako Vette -1 Kaliyo Khem Val

  Droids aren't like people. They don't retreat. They don't accept surrender. They just keep exterminating. So now it's up to me.

  You expect to do this alone? +15 Kaliyo Khem Val

  And me. Right?

  That's beyond stupid. +15 Mako Vette

  What else can I do? I'm not going to ask you to go where I wouldn't.

  Brave, but I'm more suited. +15 Mako Vette

  You're an idiot. Stay here. +15 Khem Val -1 Mako Vette

  I go into trouble frequently. +15 with Kaliyo

  If the computer core shuts the probes down, I can record how long a window that creates for future assaults.

  I'll go now. +15 with Khem Val

  Then get help, okay? +15 Mako Vette -1 Kaliyo Khem Val

  Still deranged, I see. +15 with Kaliyo

  Lieutenant Rutau reported in. He says you completed the platoon's objective alone.

  He deserves some credit. +15 Mako Vette -1 Kaliyo Khem Val

  Wasn't hard. +15 Kaliyo Khem Val

  You got them killed.

  I have need of your assistance and your discretion. We have a rescue operation that must be mounted immediately.

  Who needs rescuing?

  What do you intend?

  Why the secrecy? +15 Kaliyo Mako

  They'd never make it back in time. That leaves one hope for First Platoon, and I believe I'm talking to it right now.

  On my way. +15 Mako Vette

  A worthy task.

  I can't help. [Refuse quest]
