Walkthrough#

1. Speak with Lateng Courte in Dantooine, Czerka Office and ask about Dantari#

Speak with Lateng Courte in Dantooine, Czerka Office and ask about Dantari.

Expected journal update — index 5: The Dantari are natives of Dantooine that lack the capacity for intelligence that most sentient life in the galaxy has. I should hit their stronghold, and with great caution as they are apparently practiced hunters.

2. Use Born a jedi — Finished#

The records expose more than one way to reach this journal update:

  • Use Born a jedi.
  • Defeat Daranti Warlord in Dantooine, Daranti Stronghold and allow its script to update the quest.

Expected journal update — index 10: I have killed the Dantari Chieftain, I don’t believe that the disappearances were due to the Dantari, although if they were then they won’t be bothering Ballast for a long, long time.

Known item transfer: 3000 × Credits (Gold_001).

Outcome: this journal entry is marked as a finished branch.
