In the “Conflict in Conviction” quest of the “Starfield: Shattered Space” extension, the players have to find a camp, where the character Vaeric is detained. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to get the important items of the camp.
Reaching the Camp
Begin with House Veth’aal. There, you’re going to meet Vaeric and you will be challenged to help his family. The quest begins by talking with both family members Viktor and Vitoria who claim Vaeric for different reasons. You will find more information by travelling to Herald’s Rest to talk with Egbo Kazmi and Tane. Collect information in Herald’s Rest, persuade Tane to take you to Abandoned Camp northwest of Dazra. Once you get there, clear the whole area and get a clue where Vaeric can be found. Explore the camp as you will important things for the quest.
Examine the Camp
For a more thorough search of the camp, look for these items that are scattered around:
- Vaeric’s Camp Log: Usually found near or close to the bed or sleeping area.
- Footprints: Locate the footprints leading to the digging spot with the wheelbarrow. There, you’ll be able to get some crucial information about Vaeric’s last location.
- Vortex Spawn: A piece of a Vortex enemy can be found at the digging spot. It will also reveal to you the history.
- Bloodstains: You would witness bloodstains within the tent. This is most definitely going to be from some battle or extremely crucial happenings.
Enemies
Now, when you get all these important items, you are ready to attack the Foul Vortex Horror enemy ambush. In this battle, if you lose, it will not be possible to go ahead in the game. Fight wisely with your arm and your skills and come out of this one alive. After having conquered all the enemies and gathered all the clues, it’s time for their analysis. Items will reveal the situation of Vaeric, thus opting for such a reply as killing him, saving him, or influencing him to return back. All these decisions will decide the end of the quest and depict moral dilemmas included in the story.
Spare or kill Vaeric
When Vaeric approaches you, he’ll try to justify his betrayal. He explains that he wants to escape from House Veth’aal, but his father won’t allow it. You have three choices: attack him, let him go, or persuade him to go back home. If you choose to free him, you can ask for 10,000 Credits and take his Signet Ring, which will trick Vaeric’s father into thinking he’s dead.
Alternatively, you can kill both Vaeric and Tane to meet House Veth’aal’s demands. This option leads to a similar outcome, but you won’t have to deceive his father.
If you persuade Vaeric to return home, everyone will be satisfied with the decision. Although he’ll be unsure at first, he’ll eventually realize that family and loyalty are more important. His father will also recognize his mistakes and welcome him back. Out of all the choices, sparing and persuading Vaeric to go back to House Veth’aal is the best outcome. Everyone will be happy, and you’ll still earn 6,600 Credits for your efforts.
