Search and Seizure Walkthrough
The Search and Seizure mission can be received by talking toSergeant Yumiat the UC Security Office inNew Atlantis, near the spaceport. He will tell you that there are potential smugglers coming in and out of the spaceport and sends you to talk to the port workers.
Go outside, and two port workers will be nearby, marked on the HUD. One will have nothing to say, while the other says that the crew ofcargo shipUC-576Bhas been suspicious. Unfortunately, the worker does not remember the ship’s name, and you will have to get the name fromAegis.
Take thetransport car to MAST District, then take the elevator to the left to theDefense Research/Health and Human Services/Aegis floor. Speak toAgent Platoto receive thePotential Smuggler Ships slate.
Read the slate from either the New or Notes categoriesin the inventoryto find the name of the ship is theAnansi. Travel back toSergeant Yumiand tell him that exact name from the list of ships he asks, since giving another ship name will end the quest early. He will then tell youto seize the contraband cargofrom the ship.
TheAnansi shipwill be docked outside at the spaceport, so board it and climb the ladder inside to get to the ship’s cargo hold. Taking the contraband will causeCaptain Ndiaye to offer a deal of 2,500to lie about it and let them go.
Players can take the deal and walk off the ship in peace or take the contraband and fight the few Anansi crew members. The latter will allow players to loot the ship further. Return toSergeant Yumiand hand over the contraband to receive at least 3,300 Credits, though it is dependent on level.
Players can also lie and keep the contraband but still receive the quest reward. However, they will need tosafely hide and sell contrabandto make carrying it around worth it.
