Rebuilding a Friend

* Go top the old war debris
* 4 ships will jump you when you get to the debris field, so be ready for them. take them out and move on to the next step.

### (0/3) Guard Axa while he finds the robot's missing parts

* The first phase attack has 2 ships, kill 'em to move on to the second phase.
* The second phase is a couple of more ships, followed by 2 Capital Ships. Stay away from them, kill the small guys if you can, and jump when Axa says you good to go.

### Go to the Zonaxaer(K1) system via Stargate and dock at Sonak Station

* This your first inter Galaxy warp. Open the system map with **T**, click the stargate to select it, then either open the Star Map with **M** or click the **TO GALAX ATLAS** in the top right corner to open the Star Map that way. In the Route Setter target box type K1, click the icon that looks like the big dipper and exit out with **M**. Find the Stargate in your HUD, lock it with MMB, hit shift to warp there.
* Now that we're at the Stargate, hit **H** and click the Stargate icon (a little antenna looking thing) on the top right HUD bar. Click the word **STARGATE**, then click **JUMP TO NEXT ROUTE** . Find the Jump Point (a diamond shaped box), aim at it and fly towards it. Once you get close, the Stargate will tell you to line up with a series of boxes, your flight path, through the Stargate. Follow it through the gate and you're on your way to K1. If by some chance you miss, the Stargate will tell it was cancelled, just fly around again and line up a little better and HIT IT!
* In Zonaxaer, click **T**, find Sonak Station, select it, then hit **T** again to close the map. Make sure you select the station, not the planet.
* Lock the waypoint and warp to Sonak Station. When you get there, land and head inside.

### Talk with Smen

* Follow the Waypoint to the elevator, use the Fast Travel point where you exit the elevator and select **MARKETPLACE**.
* You'll find Smen just around the corner from where you land from using the Fast Travel point.
* Talk to him to update the objective.

### Go to Koron's Lab on planet Xunvars

* Head back to your ship the same way you came. This time, select **LANDING PAD** from the Fast Travel point. If you picked up any loot, now's a good time to sell it at any one of the kiosks.
* Use the elevator to get back to the landing dock, Find the right stairs to get out and jump in your ship.
* Now in the system map, look for and select polanet Xunvars and travel to it. Once there. hit **B** to bring up your warp drive, find the pink waypoint marker, select it with MMB, spin up your engines and go.
* Follow the waypoint marker to update the objective.

### Get Koron's stash

* Follow the waypoint marker. Grab the stash to update the objective.

### Find Koron in the caves

* Follow the waypoint to the caves, take the elevator down, find Koron.

### Leave Cave. Catch the Cargo Ship

* Head back to the elevator and head to your ship.
* Now you've got to catch the Cargo Ship. Find it in your HUD and burn towards it. **SHIFT** is your friend here. Catch up and a couple of fighters spawn. Kill them off.

### Destroy the Cargo Ships' Engine

* Fly up behind the ship, shoot right down the engine and it'll stop.

### Find the AT documents inside containers

* Fly close to the Cargo Ship and eject (press and hold **G**) amd fly to the cargo bays of the ship.
* One of the Cargo Bays has the documents you're looking for. Check each one till you find it. Don't forget to loot the containers as you go.
* Watch out for the Drones, they're a pain, but easily killed if you're a little careful.

### Shoot the Gas Canisters until they catch fire.

* I don't know what happens if you actually shoot all of them. Pick one, shoot it till it catches fire, then get out of there and . . .

### Return to Smen at Sonak Station

* Now's a good time to level up if you can. Add 2 more points to Alertness, click the little running guy icon, then click **LEARN** in the menu to the right. If you have any points left, you choose whatever you want, but I like **COOLER** and **DAMAGE REFLECTOR**. Cooler reduces the heat build up of your weapons so you can fire longer and Damage Reflector reflects damage you inflict on one enemy ship to surrounding enemy ships. From here on out, it will be up to you, but there is one more target perk that we need to get. It's under the adventurer tab and it's **MORE EXPERIENCE**. You can find it under the Intelligence tab. It's vitally important for leveling up your Adventurer rank. Keep that in mind when rank up in Adventurer the first couple of times and stack all your ability points into Intelligence to unlock both levels of **MORE EXPERIENCE**.
* Since we just looted all that stuff from the Cargo Ship, update your gear and press on.
* Return to Smen in the Marketplace using the Fast Travel point.
* Smen gives you some items, which we'll look at in a bit.

### Talk to Drane

* You'll learn about your Father and some of the backstory and proceed to the next major quest line
