Explore HK-47's entertaining backstory in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Uncover hilarious quotes and crucial quest details.

This section details the backstory and associated quests involving the droid HK-47 in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. His dialogue and involvement in side quests provide both entertainment and crucial plot progression.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Fair Trade: Locate Iziz, a Jawa, near the droid shop. HK-47 provides humorous commentary on the situation. Iziz will only share information about the star map if you rescue his tribe from the Sand People. Speak to the gate guard and show your license to exit into the Dune Sea.
  2. 2
    Dune Sea - Tanis Trapped: Upon entering the Dune Sea, Marlena asks you to find her husband, Tanis. Southeast of the gates, you'll find Tanis with four droids. You can choose to help him or leave him to die. If you help, you must solve a puzzle by interacting with four droids (A, B, C, D). The correct answers are: Droid A: Node 2 is working correctly. Droid B: 7 is the missing number. Droid C: 120 large pulses. Droid D: 31-13-12-14 23-41-12-14. Repairing the droids with parts yields less experience. After dealing with Tanis, remove HK-47 from your party and bring Juhani.
  3. 3
    Dune Sea - Sand People Ambush: Approach the sandcrawler. Speak to the mining captain. After a brief conversation, you will be ambushed by four Sand People. This encounter occurs in three waves. After defeating them, speak to the mining captain again.
  4. 4
    Dune Sea - Jagi's Challenge: Remove Juhani and add Canderous to your party. Head southwest from the sandcrawler to find Jagi and some Rodians. You can choose a dark option to fight them immediately or a light option to de-escalate. Regardless of your choice, Jagi will commit suicide, and you will then fight the Rodians. After this, replace Canderous with your Jedi companion.
  5. 5
    Dune Sea - Crash Site Ambush: Travel east from the sandcrawler. You will find a crash site. Approaching it triggers an ambush by Gamorrians who demand 500 credits. Deal with them as you see fit.
  6. 6
    Dune Sea - Sand People Enclave: East of the crash site, find a pathway leading south. This path is guarded by Sand People Warriors. Be prepared for a difficult fight, as their gaffi sticks are powerful.
  7. 7
    Post-Enclave: After defeating the Sand People, loot their remains for items like gaffi sticks, sand people clothing, and bantha fodder. Equip the sand people clothing on yourself and Bastila, and ensure HK-47 is in your party along with Bastila for the next steps.
Tips
  • HK-47 provides numerous humorous and entertaining quotes throughout these quests.
  • The dark side option for Tanis involves telling him he can rot and you'll drink ice water, which angers him and causes him to destroy his own droids, killing him and slightly damaging your health.
  • If you choose the light option with Jagi, persuade him that the move was smart and tactical to convince him he was wrong before he commits suicide.
  • Sand People Warriors are formidable; do not underestimate them.
  • Ensure you have a Jedi companion (Juhani or Bastila) for the Sand People encounters.
