The energy barrier puzzle in the Breakout mission of Star Wars Outlaws can be frustrating. Follow these steps to disable it and help Ank escape:
- Swing across the gap towards Ank’s stuck cargo.
- Climb the building, hanging from the edge until the closest guard looks away.
- Crouch walk to the first guard, eliminate them, and hide behind boxes.
- Wait for the second guard near your entry point to clear, then eliminate them stealthily.
- Eliminate the third guard near Ank while staying hidden. Be ready for a firefight if alerted.
- Spot a vent overlooking the gap where Ank is stuck. Send Nix to open it.
- Fix the power cell inside the vent with your pistol.
- Locate an oddly colored rock opposite the vent. Shatter it with a charged pistol shot.
- Shoot the power cell behind the shattered rock.
With the energy barrier disabled, Ank’s cargo will start moving, and she’ll be on her way to escape. The rest of the quest involves straightforward platforming and shooting. Now that Ank is on your side, you can continue your Star Wars Outlaws adventure with confidence!
