How to use Takedown on distracted enemies in Star Wars Outlaws

Understanding how to utilize Takedown on distracted enemies in Star Wars Outlaws is essential for unlocking various Expert Skills that enhance gameplay. One notable Expert Skill is Fast-Talk, which Kay acquires from Bartender Bram. This skill allows her to distract enemies momentarily through conversation, but first, players must learn how to take down these distracted foes.

Using Takedown on Distracted Enemies

To execute a Takedown on distracted enemies in Star Wars Outlaws, you will need to call upon your companion, Nix. Activate Pet Command (LB on Xbox, L1 on PS5, and Q for PC) to enter Nix mode. While in this mode, highlight your target and look for the command prompt labeled ‘Distract.’

Once you have your target highlighted, issue the ‘Distract’ command to Nix. As the enemy becomes preoccupied with Nix’s antics, stealthily approach them from behind. When the Takedown prompt appears, press the corresponding button: Square on PS5, X on Xbox, or V for PC.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Activate Nix by using Pet Command.
2. Highlight your target and select the ‘Distract’ command.
3. Wait for the enemy to become distracted.
4. Approach them quietly from behind.
5. Press the Takedown prompt when it appears to successfully execute the move.

Unlocking the Fast-Talk Expert Skill

Successfully using Takedown on distracted enemies multiple times will allow you to unlock the Fast-Talk Expert Skill. This skill is pivotal for navigating various challenges in the game and enhances Kay’s abilities significantly.
