Starfield: How To Complete ‘Deep Cover’ | Quest Walkthrough

gameranx.com:

Starfield is jam-packed with things to do and factions to join. Turns out everyone wants what you are offering, and sometimes, that includes the UC SysDef, the branch of the military dedicated to fighting pirates. There are a lot of ways to get involved with these guys, but the easiest is to simply join the Vanguard and complete the Grunt Work quest. 

As far as questlines go, this is one of the best. As the name implies, you are going undercover, and this exposes you to the darker side of Starfield’s universe – to the looting, murder, and pillaging. In this guide, we are going to walk you through the first quest of many in this string, Deep Cover.

There are two ways you can start this quest that we know of. One requires you to join the Vanguard on New Atlantis and complete the Supra et Ultra and Grunt Work quests. Alternatively, you can get caught in UC space with contraband. Provided you hand over the goods, you will be approached by UC SysDef with an offer. Both paths lead to this quest. 

Once in hand, head to the Sol System and dock with the flagship, UC Vigilance. You will be escorted to Commander Ikande and Lt Toft. Long story short, Ikande wants you to be their inside man – to be an undercover agent within the Crimson Fleet. You are an unknown entity that is perfect for infiltration. You will be well compensated, but you are highly encouraged to not give yourself over to the pirate life fully. The law still applies to you after all. 

Accept the quest and get ready to infiltrate the most dangerous
