Should you sell, give, or keep Gorak’s Ring in Star Wars Outlaws?

Sometimes in Star Wars Outlaws, you’ll end up with items that are worth more than just Credits. When you arrive in Mirogana and meet crime boss Gorak, Nix will sneakily snag his ring for you.

Gorak’s Ring is marked as “safe to sell” when you hover over it at a shop, but the game warns that it could have some use later. Since your reputation with each criminal Syndicate is incredibly important in Star Wars Outlaws, you really don’t want to get on Gorak’s bad side this early in the game. What’s the best move with Gorak’s Ring, then?

Should you sell Gorak’s Ring in Star Wars Outlaws?

There are three things you can do with Gorak’s Ring in Star Wars Outlaws. The first and most simple thing to do is sell it. You can get 500 Credits for Gorak’s Ring — which isn’t a whole lot in the grand scheme of things — but if you prefer working with Crimson Dawn over the Pykes and don’t care about Gorak’s feelings, then there’s really nothing stopping you from just getting rid of the ring.

However, Gorak will demand that you return his ring if you encounter him during a story quest in the first few hours of the game. When you repair the Trailblazer and infiltrate an Imperial ship with Waka in one of the first main missions of the game, you’ll be given a choice to either frame the Pykes or Crimson Dawn with the data you find.

Should you return or keep Gorak’s Ring?

If you choose to frame Crimson Dawn (which benefits the Pykes), your next objective will be to visit Gorak. He’ll ask for his ring back during this meeting. At this point, you can either return it or keep it for yourself.

If you return Gorak’s Ring, then your reputation with the Pykes will improve by a small amount. If you keep the ring, your reputation with the Pykes will decrease. The reputation boost is worth more than the Credits you could get, so we recommend just giving it back to him.

There are a few other items like this in Star Wars Outlaws, so pay attention to item descriptions. Even if an item is marked “safe to sell,” there may be alternative uses for it that are worth more than the Credits you would receive at a shop. Remember that increasing your reputation with each Syndicate will net you unique rewards, so keeping everyone happy should be your main priority as an outlaw.
