When you unlock Star Wars Outlaws Experts, you also unlock new abilities and skills that span a multitude of upgrades from combat moves, stealth tricks, upgrading flying skills, gambling cheats, and more. InStar Wars Outlaws, there are nine different experts with cryptic names like the Slicer, the Hotfixer, and the Gunslinger, which might give you a bit of a hint of what they’ll do for you once you help them.
Locating all the Star Wars Outlaws Experts is no easy task, in fact it’s a lot of quite hard ones. You don’t just find an Expert and ask them for help, an Expert is a final reward unlocked at the end of a quest chain. Even then you’ll only learn one ability from unlocking them, initially. Then, you’ll have to earn the rest through a series of challenges. It’s a lot, we know, but it’s absolutely worth your time to reap the rewards.
If you’re looking for all the Star Wars Outlaws Experts' locations and want to understand what abilities you’ll get in exchange for your time, here’s everything you need to know.
Warning: the following guide contains minor character spoilers for Star Wars Outlaws.

Some abilities will be story locked, requiring resources you can only get from quests or when you reach a certain area. Some abilities can also require others to be unlocked first, even from different Experts' skill trees. For example, the Mechanic will unlock a smoke bomb once you find theStar Wars Outlaws Smoke Bomb Compressorpart to unlock it. The Slicer can then upgrade that into a Concussive Smoke Bomb that staggers enemies. OurStar Wars Outlaws tipscan help you understand how best to apply these powers.
Below are all nine Star Wars Outlaws Experts' locations and how to unlock the initial Intel that starts their quests. I’ve also included every ability they teach you, so you can see what they have to offer inStar Wars Outlaws, and whether you want to prioritize them.
Star Wars Outlaws The Bartender Expert
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
The Bartender, Bram Shano, teaches an eclectic mix of roguish skills and abilities, including things like theStar Wars Outlaws Fast Talkwhich can help you get out of trouble if you get caught. He’s also one of a few experts who unlocks two Abilities as a default, rather than requiring challenges.

Star Wars Outlaws The Mechanic Expert

The Mechanic, Selo, starts as an Expert who can upgrade your speeder, but broadens into a general technician who helps with all things hardware.
Mechanic Location: Progress the main story until you obtain the Ion Blaster upgrade and unlock her Expert Intel. Her quest chain starts in the Jaunta’s Hope Diner on Toshara.
The Mechanic Abilities
Star Wars Outlaws The Slicer Expert

Aila is the Slicer (or hacker). As well as helping withStar Wars Outlaws hacking, she teaches skills based around stealth and sabotage.
Slicer Location: Progress the main story campaign until you obtain the Ion Blaster upgrade to unlock the Slicer’s Expert Intel. Her quest chain begins in Makal’s Gambling Parlor in the city of Mirogana on Toshana.
The Slicer Abilities
Star Wars Outlaws The Scavenger Expert

The Scavenger, Wexley, starts as somebody who will also modify your speeder, but then broadens their scope to all sorts of fun things.
Scavenger Location: Reach Akiva and progress the story until you free Gedeek to unlock Expert Intel on “Temmin’s Family”. That leads to Wexley’s quest chain in Sashin Village in Akiva.
The Scavenger Abilities
Star Wars Outlaws The Veteran Expert
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
The Veteran, MT, is a Commando Droid like ND-5 you can find on Akiva who largely teaches combat skills and abilities to help with being tough.
Location: When in orbit around any planet, head to points of interest (such as shipwrecks) and look for yellow containers floating in space. Some of these will grant “Transmissions”. Once you’ve found four you’ll get Intel leading you to an Abandoned Landing Pad on Akiva.
The Veteran Abilities
Star Wars Outlaws The Mercenary Expert
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
Rooster, the Mercenary, is all about big guns, weapons and firepower. She teaches Kay how to use heavy weapons and even some new tricks for the Trailblazer.
The Mercenary Location: After reaching Kijimi spaceport you’ll get a call from ND-5 with “The Domak Refectory Intel”. This will lead you to the bar of the same name in the North West corner of the settlement, where Rooster’s quest chain begins with speaking to her.
The Mercenary Abilities
Star Wars Outlaws The Gunslinger Expert
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
The Gunslinger, Quint, is a classic western cowboy at heart and gives a range of upgrades to your quick-draw Adrenaline Rush power, allowing you to gun down enemies at speed.
Location: After a main story mission on Tatooine to find a special pearl, ND-5 calls you with a mission chain that begins in the iconic Mos Eisley Cantina on Tatooine.
The Gunslinger Abilities
Star Wars Outlaws The Hotfixer Expert
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
Surprise! The The Hotfixer Teeka is a Jawa (Utinni!). Initially they add a turret to your ship but then provide a disparate range of eclectic abilities.
Location: After a mission on Tatooine where Kay is temporarily forbidden to use her ship, ND-5 suggests it might time to upgrade it, and provides the “Buying a Turret” intel. This begins Teeka’s quest chain in Scavenger’s Draw, in North West Mos Eisley on Tatooine.
The Hotfixer Abilities
Star Wars The High Roller Expert
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
Yes, Lando’s back as the High Roller. He teaches a range of stylish skills, including cheating at cards, shooting people, pilot tricks, and more shooting people.
Location: In the Alcazar bar in South Myrra, the city on Akiva, speak to the Bartender to get the “Taking Your Shot” Intel. Follow this to Satrap’s Promenade, where you can meet Lando and begin his quest chain.
The High Roller Abilities
Best abilities and Experts in Star Wars Outlaws
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
These are the best Star Wars Outlaws abilities to unlock first:
With 54 different abilities in Star Wars Outlaws, it’s hard to know where to begin as a priority overall. However, I’d say the best Expert to unlock first is Aila Bren the Slicer, as her default Slicer upgrade is essential to making the hacking minigame more fair and useful.
It might have made it onto our list of thebest Star Wars games, but as we laid out in ourStar Wars Outlaws review, it’s a very specific kind of game for a very specific kind of player. Our thoughts are laid out on both pages, where you can find out more.
