This guide will go over the Crimestopper<\/strong> achievement in Star Wars: The Old Republic, which requires you to have stopped five muggings. Find the crime-in-progress at any location, easily marked by a friendly “Hapless Traveler” npc cowering near a “Back Alley Thug” you need to defeat. Though we have five locations for five muggings around Mek-Sha, you can also repeatedly defeat the same one for credit, so if some seem far away, bounce between a few or wait for the respawn.<\/p>\n

The achievement can be found in your Achievements section under: Location \u2192 Mek-Sha \u2192 Mek-Sha Gangs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Mugging One<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Quick travel to Three Points. You’ll be in the bazaar regardless of faction – just take the southernmost bridge across the gap to the heroic area and you’ll see this mugging right next to some exchange affiliates.<\/p>\n

Factions:<\/b> Both – Number on Map:<\/b> 1<\/em><\/p>\n

Closest Imperial Travel:<\/b> Three Points<\/p>\n

Closest Republic Travel:<\/b> Three Points<\/p>\n

Mugging Two<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

From three points, take the southwest bridge to contested gangland and follow the north walkway west. You’ll come up on this second mugging location.<\/p>\n

Factions:<\/b> Both – Number on Map:<\/b> 2<\/em><\/p>\n

Closest Imperial Travel:<\/b> Three Points<\/p>\n

Closest Republic Travel:<\/b> Three Points<\/p>\n

Mugging Three<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Both factions are nearest via the Boardwalk Med Center. Head south from your quicktravel onto the main road south of you, then follow it west towards slugfall harbors connection. The mugging will be on your left.<\/p>\n

Factions:<\/b> Both – Number on Map:<\/b> 3<\/em><\/p>\n

Closest Imperial Travel:<\/b> Boardwalk Med Center<\/p>\n

Closest Republic Travel:<\/b> Boardwalk Med Center<\/p>\n

Mugging Four<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Republic players will see this mugging the moment they quicktravel to the refugee camp in the red zone. Easiest way to get to them is to drop into the pit below, then climb up on the south end of the area.<\/p>\n

Factions:<\/b> Both – Number on Map:<\/b> 4<\/em><\/p>\n

Closest Imperial Travel:<\/b> The Red Zone<\/p>\n

Mugging Five<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

This one is in Junker’s Junction. Republic players can drive up the ramp just past the Mek-sha mission terminal and take the next alley on the right. Imperial players starting from the backalley medcenter should take care not to accidentally overshoot and drive into the republic base.<\/p>\n

Factions:<\/b> Both – Number on Map:<\/b> 5<\/em><\/p>\n

Closest Imperial Travel:<\/b> Backalley Med Center<\/p>\n
