Welcome to our guide for the Deputized mission in Starfield! Deputized is one of the faction missions for the Freestar Collective you can pick up in Akila City on planet Akila in the Cheyenne System. You’ll get it automatically after completing the Job Gone Wrong Freestar Collective faction mission.
Talk to Emma Wilcox
So you want to be a ranger huh? Make your way to the Rock, then head to the bar to find Emma. Speak with her, say that the Marshal sent you, and ask about the rangers. When she asks, tell her you want to join. She will want to see if you are ranger material by sending you out on a mission. Head to the nearby Mission Board and pick one that suits your fancy.
Follow Emma Wilcox
Return to Emma after you complete whatever ever missing you selected and she’ll ask how it went. After that, she’ll take you to see the Marshal. On the end table just outside of his office, you’ll find the Gunslinger’s Guide 01. Speak with him to be sworn in as a Freestar Ranger Deputy. You’ll also receive a Deadeye pistol, Deputy Hat, Freestar Deputy Badge and Ranger Deputy Uniform. Emma will then give you your first mission as a ranger.
Travel to Waggoner Farm
Head to space and travel to Montara Luna (a moon orbiting Montara) in the Cheyenne System and land Waggoner Farm. After landing, you’ll be flagged down by Mikaela Waggoner who will tell you about some men who tried to force her to sell her farm.
Find the Ruffians
Before you set out to find the ruffians, head inside Mikaela’s house and go up to the second floor. In the bedroom at the top of the stairs, you’ll find the Solomon’s Adventures 02 on a nightstand near the bunkbed.
Head down the path nearby towards the canyons to find some boot tracks. Examine them then keep following the tracks through the canyon. Along the way, you’ll have to deal with some Swarming Sunflowers and come across planted mines multiple times. As you near the ruffians, Emma will make a comment hoping that the ruffians aren’t hiding nearby ready to snipe you. Shortly after that, there will be a turret you’ll need to deal with, and just past that, some Pack Octomaggots then the ruffian camp.
Confront the Ruffians
Approach the Ruffian Leader and speak with him. Regardless of the options you choose, you’ll end up fighting them. After taking care of the lot, loot the leader and read the Job’s Done slate he was carrying then speak with Emma and show her the slate.
Talk to Mikaela Waggoner
Return to the farm and inform Mikaela about what went down. This will complete the mission and you’ll be awarded EXP and credits.
