Fight Through The Mech Facility
With the patrol ships defeated, land at the Freestar Mech Facility. As you approach the building from the main road, be careful to avoid several mines buried in the ground.
Once you reach the facility, the First's leader, Paxton Hull, will speak to you over the speakers and invite you inside. The factory seems abandoned at first, but once you walk in far enough, several members of the First Cavalry pop out to ambush you.
Some of the First Cavalry members are low level, while others can be above level 30. Hide behind cover, and take out these enemies so you can continue into the mech facility.
There are several levels you will need to travel through before you finally get to Paxton Hull.
- The Mech Facility - Smelting Chamber
- The Mech Facility - Assembly
- The Mech Facility - Command Center
After entering the Assembly area, there will be a room with a Master-level security lock. Inside this room will be some crafting items and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:contraband168澳洲幸运5开奖网: that you can sell later.
In each of these areas, there will be numerous enemies you have to fight through. The majority of the First Calvary will be between level 20 and 30. Be cautious of the MK Turrets in certain areas as well.
Keep your cover, and be prepared with your healing items should your health drop too low.
Defeat Paxton Hull
Once you get into the main area for the Command Center, you will have your main task updated here: defeat the First Mercenaries, and defeat Paxton Hull.
There are some mercenaries scattered around, and you can defeat them one by one using the same tactics you would have used through the whole facility.
Defeat the mercenaries first, so you can then easily focus on Paxton Hull.
You can find Paxton Hull up in the main command room. He is level 48, and can deal out some heavy damage with his gun, so be careful to try and avoid his shots.
Once Paxton and his mercenaries are defeated, you will need to talk with him. After praising you for your strength and talking a big game, he'll finally reveal who hired the First to attack the farmers and steal their land.
Paxton claims that Ron Hope is the mastermind behind all of it, playing you and the Freestar Rangers for fools. You can then choose whether you want to arrest Paxton or kill him right there.
Either way, Paxton refuses to be taken in. You have to defeat Paxton Hull one more time, and he returns to full health for his last stand.
Killing Paxton Hull will be all you need to do to complete the "First to Fight, First to Die" quest. You will receive a hefty sum of credits, plus the typical experience. Now, it's up to you to figure out the truth about Ron Hope by continuing the Freestar Rangers quest line in "168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Hammer Falls."
