PART 1: Getting the quest (Empire version)

To start the quest, you need to head to Mos Illa and find three things.

1. Crashed Escape Pod (451, 3065)

You will get a buff called Attacked – You witnessed the attack of an infected escapee.

2. Medical supplies (566, 2781)

You will get a buff called Exposed – The death of an infected civilian exposed you to the horror of the rakghoul plague.

3. TV (617, 3536), right outside the spaceport

You will get a buff called Informed, getting all 3 buffs will give you a new buff called On the Trail that lasts for 60 minutes. It will make you eligible to get the quest.

Now head to the speeder thingie and get the quest.
