- 1Listen to the volunteer speak, then interact with the PC to read about him. You can also find the "Exotic Material Extraction Manual" book here.
- 2If you choose to let the volunteer out, he will be thankful and give you the [_ARMORY KEYCODE_]. (Note: You can save, get the code, and then kill him if you wish, but this guide follows the path of saving him for the trophy.)

Tips
- Shoot fire pipes when leaving the initial area to help protect "Aaron".
- If your suit health is low after the Voltaic Phantom fight, do not use a repair kit as you will be able to fix it soon.
- The Huntress Bolt Caster is useful for opening locked doors from a distance.
