Now that the Doomsday Relic is completely inert, there are dangerous parties that are interested in the inert fragments of the Relic. Brin wants the Freelancer to join her while she leads her Sentinels against these adversaries.
Hints and Suggestions
- The dialog exchange between the characters will change depending on whether single player or multiplayer mode is played.
- Remember to perform Feats to obtain XP for increasing Pilot Level and receiving Alliance bonus.
- Make sure to read the text pop ups that show around the memorials. This can be easily done with the help of a Sniper Rifle. Zoom and aim at the pop up marker that looks like
for the best view. - Scars and Dominion infantry can be easily tackled with any combat equipment. Items that do Blast Damage are more useful when they are in hordes.
- For Scar Scouts, Scar Hunters, and Dominion Valkyries it is best to focus on stripping their shields with lightning or Shield Breaker damage.
- Scar Destroyers' seeker mines are filled with acid which can reduce resistance of the javelin. They can deploy them infinite times. One mine may be tolerable, but several mines can automatically target a javelin and bring it down. Whenever a Destroyer is seen, defeat it quickly with any equipment.
- Scar Hunters can do a lot of damage They must be a priority when tackling enemies. Once their shields are stripped, freeze them using ice or render them flightless with fire.
- Scar Enforcers and Dominion Brutes have armored health. They don’t do much damage. Using armor buster, acid, or fire type damage is the best way to deal with them. Same goes for turrets.

Quest Chain
This expedition is a part of the Need to Know II Storyline. When the storyline is completed, an appropriate challenge is also completed, which will reward the Freelancer. The following are the related quests in order for this storyline:
- Enemy Mine
- Contract: Sentinel Collaboration
- Research and Rescue
- Contract: In the Wrong Hands
- Apocalypse When?
- One of Us
Trivia (May Contain Spoilers)
- This is the first time Brin is seen in a javelin. Her javelin’s colors and vinyls are unique and do not resemble those of other Sentinels. In fact, it is not even predominantly blue in color!
- Now that Brin has finally improved the relations between Freelancers and Sentinels it is possible that they have improved collaboration and trust. Unfortunately, because Anthem’s further development was canceled, it may never be seen.
- The text pop up on the inert Doomsday Relic reads:
- Inert Relic: Decoded Dominion messages indicate they’ve made this a high priority acquisition target.
- There are several Legendary Enemies in this expedition including Dominion Shock Brute and Dominion Frost Brute, Scar Enforcer and Scar Hunter.
- The relic fragments of the Doomsday Relic are designed differently than the ordinary relics.
- The text pop up in the Dominion Camp reads:
- Dominion Message: Decoded Dominion messages asking when their lancers will secure that relic. Increasingly terse.
- The two target Furies are named after locations: Freemark is in Bastion, whereas Frostkeln is in Stralheim.
- This is the first and only Brin related Agent Contract to have a post expedition conversational cut scene.
- If the Sentinel ode is completed, the reputation gained is Sentinel Reputation.
- If the fallen are honored as a Freelancer, the reputation gained is Freelancer Reputation.
- This is the only mission which has a conversational choice (albeit only towards the end). Silence the Heart of Rage also has a choice, but it is only made to select the Freelancer's voice.
Below is the Script and Walkthrough for One of Us (Mission):
Briefing
Sentinel Brin is waiting by her plants along with Sentinel Barr and Sentinel Andrin.
- The Freelancer: "Hello, there."
- Sentinel Brin: "Ah, Freelancer! Perfect timing. This is Sentinel Cal Andrin."
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "Hi, meh, you may recall me from the time you rescued my ass from Scars."
- Sentinel Brin: "And you also know Sentinel Derian Barr."
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "Good to see you again, Freelancer."
- The Freelancer: "Likewise. What’s the occasion?"
- Sentinel Brin: "Unfortunately, the doomsday relic. You silenced it, but the Scars are still after it. And now the Dominion’s joined in."
- The Freelancer: "The Dominion? That’s bad. I’ll get out there."
- Sentinel Brin: "Great. We’ll see you at the relic."
- The Freelancer: "What?"
- Sentinel Brin: "Our work has convinced my superiors that Freelancer-Sentinel cooperation is good idea."
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "Plus, you ever seen Brin fight? She’s a Scrapper."
- Sentinel Brin: "I don’t know about that, but me damage output has remained in the top percentiles."
- The Freelancer: "Well, The Scars and Dominion won’t know what hit them. See you in the field, Sentinels."
Secure the Doomsday Relic
The Freelancer warms up their javelin to meet the Sentinels for the expedition.
Launch Expedition
The Freelancer ventures outside Fort Tarsis.
Briefing Gallery
In Expedition
The Freelancer comes out of the strider in Giant's Crossroads.
- Sentinel Brin: "Freelancer? The other Sentinels and I are at the relic."
- The Freelancer: "Brin. You’re so… focused."
- Sentinel Brin: "I know you’ve only seen me at my desk so far, but I do know my way around a javelin."
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "She’s already killed eight Scars, by the way."
Travel to Relic
The Freelancer flies towards the Iron Serpent. When the Freelancer reaches the Monument,
- Sentinel Brin: "About time!"
- The Freelancer: "You didn’t tell me you were under attack!"
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "We got ambushed!"
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "First Scars, then Dominion!"
- Sentinel Brin: "We can do this, everyone!"
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "On your word."
Defeat Scars and Dominion
The Freelancer fights the gated in Scar and Dominion enemies along with the help of the Sentinels. Meanwhile, the Doomsday Relic, is behaving odd by emanating Shaper energy. There is a text pop up on it.
- The Freelancer: "Good to have you out here, Brin!"
- Sentinel Brin: "Freelancers and Sentinels fighting side by side! I think I like it."
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "Works for me!"
As the combat continues,
- Sentinel Brin: "barr, your core’s overheating. Watch your levels."
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "Will do."
- The Freelancer: "How come you never checked on me like that?"
- Sentinel Brin: "What? You just keep doing so much better than I had expected!"
When all the enemies are defeated,
- Sentinel Brin: "Silenced or not, we have to stop this relic from falling into anyone’s hands. Freelancer? There’s a Sentinel strider at the bottom of a lake nearby. Could you put a beacon on it?"
- The Freelancer: "What’s the plan, Brin?"
Secure a Safe Drop-Off Point
- Sentinel Brin: "The strider in the lake has a shielded cargo hold. A team of Sentinels can transport the relic there."
- The Freelancer: "Scars’s aren’t exactly known for their grace underwater."
- Sentinel Brin: "And once the relic’s under the shield, the Dominion can’t track it. Gives the fort to deal with it later."
Locate Sunken Strider
The Freelancer visits the nearby water reservoir to locate the sunken Sentinel strider.
Tag Strider
The Freelancer interacts with the strider to tag it.
- The Freelancer: "The beacon’s on the strider."
- Sentinel Brin: "Good! But we’ve found a…complication: a few fragments are missing from the relic."
- The Freelancer: "I bet the Scars and the Dominion stripped it before we came."
- Sentinel Brin: "Likely. The Scars aren’t too far from your current location."
- The Freelancer: "I’ll get those fragments back."
Recover Relic Fragments Looted by Scars
The Freelancer must first deal with the Scars and recover the fragments stolen by them.
Travel to Scar location
The Freelancer flies to the Drill.
- The Freelancer: "There’s the Scar Camp."
- Sentinel Brin: "Clear out those Scars, and I bet you’ll find the missing fragment."
Defeat Scars
- Sentinel Brin: "Finding the fragment will be easier after you get rid of those Scars."
- The Freelancer: "Chances are."
The Freelancer defeats all the Scars.
- The Freelancer: "Scars down. Might be more nearby, though."
- Sentinel Brin: "I’m certain they took a piece of the relic."
- The Freelancer: "I’ll hunt it down."
Find Missing Fragment
- Sentinel Brin: "Hmm. If I were a disgusting heap of violent bugs, where would I hide a fragment?"
- The Freelancer: "It’s got to be somewhere in the camp."
The Freelancer locates the missing relic fragment using the radar.
- The Freelancer: "Fragment acquired. Heading back."
- Sentinel Brin: "Great work."
Return Fragment to Relic
The Freelancer returns to the relic and inserts the missing fragment.
- Sentinel Brin: "Thank you, Freelancer. I’m quite sure the other Fragment’s at the Dominion Camp. While you get it, the other Sentinels and I will… hold down the fort."
- The Freelancer: "Was that a… joke?"
- Sentinel Brin: "It was! Fort, like “Fort Tarsis.” But here!"
- The Freelancer: "Yeah, I get it."
Recover Relic Fragment Looted by the Dominion
The Freelancer must now recover the fragment stolen by the Dominion.
Travel to Dominion Location
The Freelancer flies to Crescent Lake.
- The Freelancer: "Found the Dominion Camp."
- Sentinel Brin: "Good. Clear them out, and find that fragment."
Defeat Dominion Enemies
The Freelancer fights the Dominion.
- Sentinel Brin: "I’m sure you can find that fragment once you get rid of the Dominion."
- The Freelancer: "Here’s hoping."
When the enemies are defeated,
- Sentinel Brin: "That relic piece must be nearby."
- The Freelancer: "I’m looking."
Find Missing Fragment
The Freelancer looks for the missing fragment.
- Sentinel Brin: "The Dominion must have hidden that missing Fragment in their camp."
- The Freelancer: "I’ll keep looking."
When the missing fragment is found,
- The Freelancer: "Fragment in hand, heading back to you."
- Sentinel Brin: "Excellent."
There is a text pop up on one of the Scrolls above a crate in the Dominion Camp.
Return Fragment to Relic
If the Freelancer drops the relic at any point, intentionally or otherwise,
- The Freelancer: "Crap. Dropped it. Heading back."
The freelancer inserts the second relic fragment.
- The Freelancer: "That’s it! The relic’s reassembled."
- Sentinel Brin: "Now we can bury it for good. Wait—what’s that?"
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "Incoming!"
Defend Doomsday relic
Enemies now start gating in.
Defeat Scars
First, it’s the Scars.
- The Freelancer: "That’s a lot of Scars!"
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "Good! I still owe them for caging me up!"
- Sentinel Brin: "You’re doing great, Andrin. We have this!"
Even more scars gate in!
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "More Scars incoming!"
- Sentinel Brin: "Two of them look tough. Watch your ammunition!"
As the battle continues,
- Sentinel Brin: "They really want this relic!"
- The Freelancer: "They’re not getting it!"
When all the Scars are defeated,
- The Freelancer: "That’s the last of the Scars."
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "I hope so. What else could they throw at us?"
- Sentinel Brin: "Oh, all sorts of things. Scars are very resourceful. But, at the moment, we should probably worry more about these incoming Dominion signals. Ready, Freelancer?"
- The Freelancer: "You bet."
Defeat Dominion Enemies
Dominion enemies now gate in.
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "Nice takedown, Freelancer."
- The Freelancer: "Yours aren’t so bad, either."
- Sentinel Brin: "I’m so glad we’re all cooperating."
More Dominion show up through gates!
- Sentinel Brin: "More Dominion."
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "And they brought their pets! "
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "Tough bunch, I’ll give tem that."
- Sentinel Brin: "We can do it. What’s your motto again, Freelancer?"
- The Freelancer: "”Stronger Together”?"
- Sentinel Brin: "Yeah, that’s the one!"
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "More Dominion. They have two Furies!"
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "You! They look real mean!"
=Furies Killed
The Freelancer must kill 2 furies.
- The Freelancer: "Furies. Don’t let them flank you."
- Sentinel Brin: "Trust the Freelancer on this one."
When one of the furies is defeated,
- Sentinel Brin: "One Fury down!"
- The Freelancer: "Makes things a little easier."
When the second Fury is defeated,
- Sentinel Brin: "That’s the last of them. We did it!"
- The Freelancer: "Freelancer-Sentinel Cooperation at its finest."
- Sentinel Brin: "Yes. Oh! Speaking of which, the other Sentinels and I were talking. There’s this Sentinel tradition. If you’d like, you could join us? At the bar. In the fort."
- The Freelancer: "Raising a glass to the fallen?"
- Sentinel Brin: "Exactly. We’d be… honored to have you with us."
- The Freelancer: "I’ll be there."
The Freelancer returns to the Fort.
Post Expedition
Celebrate with the Sentinels
The Freelancer meets Brin, Barr, and Andrin in the Bar.
Speak with Brin
- Sentinel Brin: "Freelancer! You made it."
- The Freelancer: "I wouldn’t miss this for anything."
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "As an extension of Freelancer-Sentinel cooperation, rounds are on Sentinel Brin tonight!"
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "(Laughs.) Even if she always sticks to one cup."
- Sentinel Brin: "Hey, moderation, Barr. One day you’ll learn."
- The Freelancer: "So how does this get-together work?"
- Sentinel Brin: "Just here to relax and think about those who’ve left us. To celebrate them. I’m sure Freelancers do something similar?"
- The Freelancer: "I think most lancers do. We face the same threats. Fight the same fights."
- Sentinel Derian Barr: "Bleed the same blood."
- Sentinel Cal Andrin: "When you’re going out there, it’s for everyone."
- Sentinel Brin: "To Sentinels before us and those to come. To those who sacrificed."
The Freelancer has two choices here: Finish the Sentinel Ode or Honor them as a Freelancer. Depending on the choice, the type of reputation earned is different.
Finish the Sentinel Ode
Choosing the Left Side Option:
- The Freelancer: "To those who will."
- Sentinel Brin: "You know our ode for the fallen?"
- The Freelancer: "I picked it up somewhere. Maybe you’re having an influence on me."
- Sentinel Brin: "Finally."
After this the conversation is the same.
Honor them as a Freelancer
Choosing the Right Side Option:
- The Freelancer: "To some of the finest lancers this Freelancer’s ever worked with."
- Sentinel Brin: "Hmm, not the traditional ending to our ode for the fallen, but… I like it."
After choosing one of the two options and finishing the dialog, the following conversation takes place, regardless of the choice.
- The Freelancer: "Keep coming up with good ideas, Brin."
- Sentinel Brin: "I’ll try. Before I forget to say it: I’m glad we got to know each other."
- The Freelancer: "Take care of yourself, Brin. You’ve earned it."
- Sentinel Brin: "Stay vigilant, Freelancer."
