sees an up-and-coming scoundrel, Kay Vess, interacting with a plethora of new characters as she assembles her crew to embark upon one of the biggest heists the Outer Rim has ever seen. While some of these characters provide Kay with contracts or intel, those known as “Experts” are invaluable to upgrading Kay’s abilities.Unlike many past Ubisoft titles with skill trees and XP points,


Star Wars Outlaws uses its experts as a way to unlock new skills
, with these skills being unlocked through each character by having Kay perform specific feats in the open world. However, in order for the experts’ skills to be unlocked, players must first find them either as part of the main campaign or through specific quests.


Bram Shano

The Bartender

Bram is the owner of the Canto Bight bar, The Broken Hoof, and has looked after Kay since Riko abandoned her, providing her with a room and free meals. Aside from bartending, Bram is a broker, providing Kay and others with several illegal jobs across the Worker’s District.

Alia’s Expert Intel becomes available shortly after unlocking the Ion Blaster upgrade and leads Kay to Makal’s Gambling Parlor, and ultimately to a contact within the Crimson Dawn district. Alia calls in via a hologram, and asks for Kay to retrieve an Imperial Code Sequencer from within an Imperial outpost. After acquiring this, Kay finds Aila inside a facility controlled by the Galactic Empire, where she hacks its turrets and eviscerates all of the troopers inside. Following this, Aila becomes an expert, providing Kay with an improved slicing kit to connect to more advanced devices, along with several stealth upgrades.

Temmin Wexley first appeared in Star Wars canon in the 2015 novel Aftermath, which was set after the events of Return of the Jedi and some time before his appearance as an adult in The Force Awakens, making his appearance in Star Wars Outlaws his earliest appearance on the timeline. By the time Star Wars Outlaws takes place, Temmin Wexley has been left on the planet Akiva by his mother as she joined the rebel forces following his father’s arrest by the Empire.


Here, he was looked after by his aunt Esmelle and her partner Temmin, but has insisted on living alone in his family home where he scavenges various droid parts and works on a bunch of projects. Meeting Temmin is part of Star Wars Outlaws‘ campaign and can’t be missed, as his skills are vital in upgrading Kay’s speeder so she can travel across Akiva’s deeper bodies of water.

Sheriff Quint Cresadde

The Gunslinger

Sheriff Quint is the first person Kay meets when landing upon Tatooine, and later, after a main story mission, The Heavy, in which Kay has to find a special Krayt Dragon pearl, ND-5 calls her with a mission chain that begins in the iconic Mos Eisley Cantina on Tatooine. Through this, Kay learns about Quint’s past working with the notorious pirate Gwarm, and how she eventually managed to buy her way out of the pirate gang and return home to Tatooine, where she began using her skills to help the locals as their new sheriff.


Ultimately, this chain leads to a mission in which Kay teams up with Sheriff Quint to defeat several Hutt Cartel bounty hunters attacking the town of Wayfar. After this, Sherrif Quint becomes another expert.

Sheriff Quint Cresadde provides Kay with the following abilities:

Mark +1 additional target during Adrenaline Rush.

Kay can mark tougher enemies twice during Adrenaline Rush. This leads to an instant kill instead of a stagger effect.


Teeka

The Hotfixer

After ND-5 suggests adding a turret to The Trailblazer, the “Buying a Turret” Intel is revealed, and Kay explores the deserts of Tatooine in search for someone who can carry out this task. This eventually leads Kay to the Jawa scavenger, mechanic, and trader known as Teeka at the Bestine Junkyard. In exchange for this work, Teeka requests a Sarlaac tooth, and Kay must venture to a nearby dead Sarlaac Pit in the Western Dune Sea to acquire it. Upon returning it, Teeka is unlocked as an expert.

Lando Calrissian

The High Roller


Upon playing enough high-level Sabacc games through the High-Stakes Showdown quest, Kay will get the opportunity to meet the gambler and smuggler Lando Calrissian on Akiva. Upon talking to him and learning about his work with the rebels, Kay aids them in fending off an Imperial attack, which unlocks Lando as an expert. Even once Lando is unlocked as an expert, Kay can go back and play a game of Sabacc against him later as the finale of High-Stakes Showdown.

Lando provides Kay with the following abilities:

Ability

Perk

Allows Kay to perform a Double Draw where she can draw two cards at Kessel Sabacc.

Lando is confirmed to appear again in the first of Star Wars Outlaws‘ story pack DLCs, Wild Card, which will involve infiltrating a high-stakes Sabacc tournament before Kay realizes there’s a far greater game at play. With Lando’s bio in Star Wars Outlaws noting that his chief concern is around rescuing Han Solo at this time, it’s possible that Wild Card may set up the daring rescue mission that begins Return of the Jedi‘s story.

MT-7

The Veteran


MT-7 is a broken-down Commando Droid, similar to like ND-5, situated on Akiva and is perhaps the trickiest expert to find in Star Wars Outlaws as Kay needs to find a specific kind of loot chest containing encrypted Clone War datadiscs when roaming around in space on The Trailblazer first before the abandoned landing pad he’s situated on opens up. Working with MT-7 is the best way for Kay to learn more about ND-5’s past, which he is usually extremely secretive about, as Kay goes about finding all of the data from MT-7’s fallen unit.

The Clone War datadiscs that reveal MT-7’s location can only be found near shipwrecks in yellow loot chests that are opened by holding the interact key.

MT-7 provides Kay with the following abilities:
