Little Trick for Riders of the Storm

This is a tip for avoiding the car chase and getting the secret dialogue/“best outcome”in this quest even without stealth.

Normally, in this quest, if you get into combat, even for a moment, there will be a car chase afterward. If you are perfectly sneaky to extract Saul, there is no chase. If you BOTH never get detected AND kill every single person in the base, you also get unique dialogue.

I just managed to obtain the last outcome with a body/tech build after going on a rampage with an explosive LMG.

The trick is do initiate the quest, progress until you go to the enemy base, but DO NOT talk to Panam outside. Instead, go straight in and exterminate everyone first (and the security cams too for good measure). Getting into combat BEFORE talking to Panam DOES NOT COUNT. Once you’re done, THEN talk to Panam to “start” the operation. Then you can just waltz in and take Saul without ever getting detected “during the operation”, because there’s no one left to detect you.

That’s all, happy rampaging!
