How to Start the Starfield Job Gone Wrong Mission

Job Gone Wrong is one of the faction missions for the Freestar Collective you can pick up in Akila City on Akila in the Cheyenne System. To start it, simply head into town for the first time an Akila City Security Guard will inform you of an incident at the bank. This typically occurs during the Starfield The Empty Nest main mission.

Talk to Daniel Blake

Make your way to the bank near the center of town and speak with Marshal Daniel Blake out front. Tell him you’re there to help to get a response that he doesn’t know you. If you have Sam Coe in your party, he will convince the Marshal to let you help. If not then you’ll just have to go through a couple more lines of dialog.

Persuade the Bank Robbers to Surrender

After Marshal Blake announces you’re coming to speak with them, head to the door of the bank and interact with the intercom to its left. The robber will ask how he can trust you giving you a set of options.

One of them is to persuade the robber you are just here to help. If you pass the skill check, you can try to convince them to surrender and let the hostages go. If that is successful, then the robbers will end the standoff peacefully.

Ask to See the Hostages or Sneak Into the Bank

If the negotiations fail, speak with Marshal Blake and you’ll be able to suggest that you just take out the bandits. He’ll then have you ask to see the hostages to get in via the front door or sneak into the bank via the back door. If you sneak around the back, you’ll need to fight all the bandits inside.

Talk to Daniel Blake

Return to the Marshal and tell him the situation has been resolved. No matter how you resolve this mission (either peacefully or by using violence), you’ll be rewarded with 150 EXP and some credits.
