Talos Outpost is a location in Deep Caverns.

Description

Talos is a remote old Biocorp outpost of the Hollow Earth research complex. It is located in the eastern reaches of Deep Caverns, beyond warehouse blocks and near Arke geothermal power station. Its original purpose is unknown, but it does not appear to have been a research facility. It now serves as a base for the Faceless forces fighting against Tchortists in Deep Caverns.

Reputation with the Faceless

Talking with the outpost's commander and allowing your mind to be read will potentially allow you to receive several batches of W2C ammo or grenades, as well as healing items. Whether the Faceless consider you an ally depends on acts previously committed in the game.

  • 3 or more attitude points are needed for the best result, where you cooperated as much as possible. The faceless consider you an ally and are willing to share all their information and some supply packages.
  • 2-1 attitude points proves you're trustworthy and results in a friendly attitude with limited intelligence sharing and supplies.
  • 0 points results in a neutral attitude where you will get nothing out of the faceless, but they allow you to travel through their territory.
  • Anything less than that or having started a spying job for the Tchortists will turn the Faceless hostile immediately after the mindreading.

In the latter case it's best not to talk to the commander at all to avoid the mindreading, unless one is prepared to take on the faceless. Getting out of Talos alive is a challenge in itself, and there are great numbers of stealthy Faceless Gaunts patrolling the entire Faceless territory.
