Kings-Gambit ist eine Nebenquest in Fallout: New Vegas.
Schnelllösung
Reden sie mit dem King darüber, die Feindseligkeit gegenüber RNK-Bürgern zu beenden oder töten sie Pacer auf eine Weiße, die die RNK nicht unter Verdacht bringt.
Detailed walkthrough
Once you have completed the quest Things That Go Boom, speak to Ambassador Crocker, who will assign Kings' Gambit. Crocker tells you about all the violence in Freeside being caused by the Kings. He gives you two options: solve the problem diplomatically, or kill Pacer, the main person responsible for the violence.
Option: Kill Pacer
If you have already talked to the ghoul Rotface, he may have given you tips, two of which include the fact that Pacer has a heart problem and too many drugs will kill him and another is he has a feud with the Van Graff family (If you have not talked to Rotface, you open this option by stealing Pacer's treatment records from Julie Farkas' filing cabinet in the Old Mormon Fort). This will add two optional objectives to the quest, one to kill Pacer by adding psycho to his jet (requires 60 Medicine) and the other is to kill Pacer in a way that implicates the Van Graff family. You have to do this before his stash appears.
Method: Frame the Van Graff family (Jean-Baptiste Cutting's note)
- Examine Pacer's stash of jet which is disguised as a carton of cigarettes under his bed, (then try to take it, a prompt will appear stating that you should obtain a note to pin the blame on someone else), then return to Ambassador Crocker.
- Talk to Ralph at Mick and Ralph's and ask him to forge a handwritten note written to Pacer from Jean-Baptiste Cutting. (he will only do this if you have a high enough Speech skill [50] or if the Kings have accepted you)
- Go to Pacer's room (first room on the left, third floor of The King's School of Impersonation).
- Replace Pacer's stash of jet with the handwritten note.
- When Pacer checks his stash, he will immediately run over to the Silver Rush and get himself killed.
This method works even if you killed everyone in the Silver Rush building earlier. Just follow Pacer there after planting the note in his room and kill him yourself with a plasma or laser weapon to frame Van Graffs.
It is important to talk to the King before returning to Ambassador Crocker.
Method: Frame the Van Graff family (working as a guard)
- Start the quest Birds of a Feather.
- While working as a guard, when Pacer comes and talks to you, pick a fight with him by using hostile dialogue options such as the third option in the first dialogue and "Care to back that up?" in the second. This will make him hostile.
- Kill him with the energy weapon the Van Graffs issued you.
Doing this won't make the Kings hostile and will make you successfully complete both King's Gambit (since you killed him with an energy weapon while working for the Van Graffs) and Birds of a Feather (killing him doesn't make you fail this quest).
However, killing Pacer will break the quest line G.I. Blues, therefore it is recommended finishing this quest first
Method: Frame the Van Graff family (planting energy weapon)
- Wait in or around Pacer's room until night time.
- Sneak into his room and pick his pocket, planting a plasma grenade or mine on him.
- Back up REALLY quickly.
Doing this will off Pacer in a way to frame the Van Graffs, so you'll still get the rewards from the Ambassador, and the Kings will not suspect you.
Method: Spike the jet with psycho (Requires 60 Medicine and 1 psycho)
To complete this method, either speak to Rotface and give him caps until he tells you about Pacer's addiction or check the filing cabinet in Julie Farkas' wing of the Old Mormon Fort. Then follow these steps:
- Go to Pacer's room (the first room to the left on the third floor of The King's School of Impersonation)
- Add the psycho to the stash of jet under his bed (roughly between 8A.M. and 9P.M.). The stash is disguised as a carton of cigarettes, but it will only appear AFTER speaking with Rotface or looking through Julie Farkas's files (see above).
- Pacer will die by checking his stash in his room during the night (the earliest time he can be found in his room is about 10P.M.)
- Pacer will die immediately when he checks his stash.
Method: Just kill Pacer
You will fail the quest and lose a substantial amount of fame with Freeside, however you do get a reward (if you apologize) and are still allowed to move onto the next quest. If you wish to easily regain fame with Freeside, go the Atomic Wrangler and talk to James Garret. You will have to pay more caps depending on how infamous you are.
Option: Solve diplomatically
If you haven't used your favor from G.I. Blues yet, you can use it to ask The King to stop the violence and turn the quest in. However, if you have already used it, the King will say no and you will have to return to Ambassador Crocker and tell him that the King will not stop the violence. Crocker will then give you two options (on top of the option to kill Pacer): Talk to Colonel Moore at the Hoover Dam or talk to Colonel Hsu at Camp McCarran.
Method: Colonel Moore
- Head to Hoover Dam and talk to Colonel Moore, she will tell you to tell the Kings to stand down or be destroyed and offers to send a squad to back you up.
- Anything you say to the King will cause him to refuse and a fight will break out, and you will fail the mission when you tell Crocker what happened. However you will not gain any Freeside infamy if you let the troopers do all the shooting, and you can get the King's unique suit and you even get a reward of 300 caps from Crocker if you apologize and you get to move onto the next quest. If you do not have Rex as a companion at this time he may be killed by the NCR and you won't be able to recruit him again.
Method: Colonel Hsu
- Go to Colonel Hsu at Camp McCarran and tell him about the situation in Freeside and he will tell you to offer the King support from the NCR.
- When you get back to the King and tell him the NCR have offered their support. If you are rude to him, his gang will open fire and you will fail the quest, although you will not gain any Freeside infamy if you let the troopers do all the shooting. You can get the King's unique suit and even get a reward of 300 caps from Crocker if you apologize and you get to move onto the next quest.
- If the player is polite, the King agrees to peace with the NCR, but Pacer will attempt an unsuccessful coup of the Kings, and a few Kings Gang Members will start shooting the NCR troopers. Help kill Pacer and the Kings' Rebels and return to Crocker.
Reward
The player will be rewarded with 1300 XP, 600 caps and NCR fame. With a 60 barter you gain another 200 caps. In addition, the quest For the Republic, Part 2 will begin.
- Received 1200xp and had an option (with a barter skill of 60) to ask for more caps (200). Diplomatic solution, using a favor from the king. (X360)
- Received 1200xp, received 600 caps and had an option (with a barter skill of 60) to ask for more caps (200). Spike the jet with psycho solution. (Player)
The player will get neither of these if you just kill Pacer.
Notes
- If you have completed Birds of a Feather the option to imply Pacer's killing by the Van Graffs is already available.
- Choosing the way to kill Pacer will have repercussions on the quest Birds of a Feather
- If you already have Rex as a companion it is possible for Rex to kill his old master.
- If you choose to go the diplomatic route and get Colonel Hsu to help resolve the issue, be aware the shooting Pacer and his entourage may cause you to lose considerable fame with Freeside, and / or turn the rest of the Kings against you.
- If you have left the forged note in Pacer's stash but have not witnessed him die, and you go on to complete the diplomatic solution via Colonel Hsu, nothing will happen when you talk to the King and he accepts your offer for peace, because Pacer will not be in the room. If you wait for a few minutes there will be gunfire and several kings will be dead and you will still have the option to stop Pacer. You will then have to walk to the Van Graff's and witness Pacer being killed. When you return to the ambassador you will have both speech options to complete the quest (diplomatic and killing Pacer/framing the Van Graffs).
- If the King has died prior to the start of this quest, you can not do the mission. It will not even appear on your Pip- Boy. You must return to the ambassador and tell him the King is dead. He will give you three hundred caps if you apologize, and you will move on to the next quest.
