Star Wars Outlawsfeatures a number of difficult choices that will ultimately determine Kay Vess' standing with the four Syndicates. She often has the choice between two options, with one increasing her reputation with one Syndicate and lowering it with another. One such choice is whether players should take Tizlak, the traitorous Pyke, to Gorak.

While fans may want toreach max reputation with all Syndicates inOutlaws,this quest will either increase Kay’s standing with the Pykes or avoid losing reputation with the Crimson Dawn Syndicate. It’s a tough choice made even harder by all of Tizlak’s tantalizing credits that are on the line. Fortunately, players who are stuck on this choice in the Syndicate Quest, “The Traitor,” do have an obvious way out.

Kay Will Also Avoid Losing Reputation With The Crimson Dawn

If players choose to take Tizlak’s bribe inOutlaws, then he’s set free and will avoid Gorak’s wrath.
