Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords Hints
DARK: How can I help the mercenaries take over the planet?
1 of 11: When you leave the crystal cave and meet Azkul, hear him out and then agree truthfully to help him (don't use the "lie" option).
2 of 11: Run back to the Khoonda building and talk with the administrator about helping with the defenses. Not that you're going to, but you need the security keycard that she'll give you.
3 of 11: Also, talk to Zherron (who's standing next to the administrator now) to get a long list of things that you can do to help "prepare" for the mercenary assault.
4 of 11: There are now two different ways you can finish this, one of which is much harder than the other. I'll summarize the easy method first, then the harder one.
5 of 11: On the easier way, don't report back to Azkul, but instead tell Zherron that you're ready to finalize the defenses (and then optionally persuade him into letting you give the men a demoralizing "pep talk").
6 of 11: When you're inside with Azkul, tell him to go ahead and kill the administrator (or extort a bit of money out of him to let him pass unmolested). Vrook won't blame you for doing this, and he'll even teach you a new lightsaber form and give you a lightsaber, just like on the Light Side path.
7 of 11: And now for the harder way. Start by running back to the entrance to the crystal cave and telling Azkul that everything's ready for the assault.
8 of 11: This time, you'll have to fight Master Vrook in a lightsaber duel when you get into the Khoonda building. That's the part that can be very hard.
9 of 11: Immediately use an Energy Resistance power, then use a power attack for your first strike against him (my character had Master Power Attack by this point, and it worked very well).
10 of 11: If you don't know it yet, you'll learn the Ataru lightsaber form off of him fairly quickly, so switch to using it in combination with your power attacks. He can heal himself frequently, but you should be able to wear him down sooner or later. (Note that despite what Kreia's voice says, you can't get your two companions to do a darn thing during this battle.)
11 of 11: If you can overcome Vrook, you'll have finished the merc takeover in the way that gets you by far the most credits, plus a big boost to your Force points. However, you don't get any Dark Side points for some odd reason.
