How to Start

You can start the “Chains in the Dark” storyline once you have completed all previous stories, including Ruhnuk and Voss Interpreter’s Retreat. Once you have, you will automatically get a quest called “Road to Nowhere” in your quest tracker to launch.

Thank you player Zahk for all your help on this guide to make it easier for other players to find the quest objectives!

Reputation

Reputation is a way of gaining favor with different groups by completing quests for them. As you level up your reputation rank, more rewards for that reputation track become available. Reputation is shared by all your characters on your server, it is legacy-wide.

You can earn this Reputation by completing Manaan daily quests, by flying to the Kessan’s Landing Daily Area on Ord Mantell (not the normal Ord Mantell) and using the terminal to pick up the dailies and weeklies.

By using multiple characters, you won’t be limited to how many Ord Mantell quests you run, but you will still be gated by how many reputation points you can earn – you can only earn a hard limit of 12,000 reputation points per week.

Ranks

As you run dailies, you’ll rank up your reputation, and each rank unlocks new rewards from the Ord Mantell Reputation vendor near the quest terminal.

None – 0 Reputation
Outsider – 0/2,500 Reputation (2,500 total points needed)
Newcomer – 0/5,000 Reputation (7,500 total points needed – need to check)
Friend – 0/7,500 Reputation (15,000 total points needed – need to check)
Hero – 0/??? Reputation (??? total points needed)
Champion – 0/??? Reputation (??? total points needed)
Legend – 0/??? Reputation (??? total points needed)

Tokens

Each type of token from questing and enemies gives you a different amount of Reputation:

Green: 256 Reputation (as a subscriber)
Blue: ?? Reputation (as a subscriber)
Purple: ?? Reputation (as a subscriber)

Tips:

This mission initially takes place in the subterranean power station directly north of Kessan’s Landing, but moves on as you take out named targets.
Because of this, it’s best to pick it up with the rest and do it as you do the other dailies.

Only the Gold-level Captains inside count for stage 1. Loot them to start stage 2.
Head to the northeast corner pictured below to interact with one of the two blue glowing terminals. This will summon the named enemy.

Exit using the southeast corridor and follow the dirt road over to the farmland in the northeast.
Kill any “Separatist Bomber” regular enemy in this sandy valley between the world boss and the farm to loot some explosives.
Head to the glowing blue crate displayed below to summon the next named enemy to fight. She’s a gold level with 2 regular enemies as backup.

The next enemy is far south at Fort Ronnig, inside the fort walls but outside any buildings.
You specifically need to loot a Hidden Chain Beastmaster – Silver mob always accompanied by an Asharl Panther.
Take this loot around the back of the main fort – overlooking the beach is the large beast cage that summons the last leader – a silver level mando with a silver beast helper.
