How to Start the Starfield Search and Seizure Mission

Speak to the Port Workers

After exhausting all the dialog with Sergeant Yumi, head to the Spaceport launch pad. Speak with the two technicians there to learn more about the Search and Seizure mission.

Obtain the Ship Records from Aegis

Travel to the MAST building in the MAST District then take the elevator up to the Defense Research / Health and Human Services / Aegis floor. Head diagonally to the right and enter the Aegis Intelligence Network. Once inside this area, take a left to enter Agent Plato’s office and speak with him. Now that you have the Potential Smuggler Ships slate, read it!

Report to Sergeant Yumi

Return to Yumi in the Spaceport and speak with him. The correct answer is “Anansi”.

Obtain the Contraband

Make for Launch Pad B to find the Anansi. Board the ship then head for the cockpit. Inspect the Cargo Hold to find a Crate of Contraband. Grab it then the Captain Malai Ndiaye will ask you to bargain with her.

Make a Bargain

You’ll receive 2,500 credits to lie to Sergeant Yumi. When you report back to him, he’ll believe you and is sorry that he wasted your time. The Search and Seizure mission will complete and as a reward, you’ll receive 200 EXP and 3800 Credits.

Don’t Make Bargain

If you refuse her offer, the crew will attack you. Take them all 3 out then report back to Sergeant Yumi. You’ll have the option to give the contraband to him or withhold it. Either way, you’ll receive 200 EXP and some credits.
