How to Start the Starfield Dead Stop Mission
To start the Dead Stop mission, you’ll need to travel to Ixyll II in the Ixyll System and land at the Elos Retreat. Disembark from your ship then head towards the building to hear a group of people arguing. Once the argument wraps up, speak with Sloan and then offer to help look for the missing worker.

Speak to Greg D’Angelo
Enter the retreat heading for the Infirmary on the right (southwest) side of the building to find Greg inside. Speak with him asking about Kilman to learn a bit more about what happened. Greg will also tell you where you can go to pick up on Kilman’s trail.
Find Kilman
Exit the retreat building then head northeast outside the retreat toward the objective maker you got from Greg. After a decent trek, you’ll come to a cave on the side of a mountain with dark crystals surrounding the entrance. Head inside then work your way through the cave heading southwest. While traversing through the cave, keep an eye out for a pack of Glowhands living there. Once you reach a big open area in the cave, there will be a small opening on the southwestern side of it. Pass through it to spot Kilman who you’ll want to speak with.
Return to the Retreat
Escort Kilman through the cave and back to the retreat. Once you enter the compound the workers will start shouting that Kilman has returned prompting a conversation.
Listen to the Conversation
Kilman will go through what happened to him claiming that someone put him in a bag and carried him off. Jonah will then demand that the culprit be found and dealt with.
Speak to Sloan
Once everyone clears out, speak with Sloan about the new situation. She’ll then ask that you continue assisting to find the kidnapper. Agree to help and then mention the building with metal floors. Once the conversation concludes, you’ll be rewarded with some credits for your troubles and the Ghost Hunt mission will start.
