Follow our expert guide to successfully complete the Passion Pills side quest in The Outer Worlds. Get all the details you need to help Nyoka!

Alright, let's dive into the 'Passion Pills' side quest in The Outer Worlds. This one's a bit quirky, but totally doable. We'll get you sorted with what Nyoka needs.

Walkthrough:

1. Find Nyoka: First things first, you'll need to find Nyoka. The quest suggests you'll likely be talking to her during the main quests 'Radio Free Monarch' or 'Signal Point in Space'. She hangs out at 'The Yacht Club' in Stellar Bay on Monarch.
2. Get the Caffenoids: Nyoka's got a bit of a dependency issue and needs caffenoids to function. She can't get them herself, so it's up to you. Head west from The Yacht Club until you spot the dispensary.
3. Talk to Abigail: Inside the dispensary, you'll meet 'Auntie' Abigail Edwards. She's a bit… overly friendly, which is a bit of a red flag, right? She's talking to someone named Frederick Halstead when you arrive. You can ask her about 'Velma' if you overheard it, but that's for another time. The main goal here is getting those caffenoids.
4. Skill Checks and Options: This is where your skills come into play. You'll need a Medical skill of 35 to make real progress through talking to Abigail. But don't worry if your Medical skill isn't that high, there are other ways to get the caffenoids:
   • Option 1: Bribe or Lie: If you pass the initial Medical 35 check with Abigail, you can then try a Lie 20 check. If successful, she'll admit the stock is upstairs in the supply room.
   • Option 2: Dr. Williams' Terminal: After passing the Medical 35 check, you can mention Nyoka's name. This causes a significant change in Abigail's demeanor. She'll then mention Dr. Williams' terminal upstairs, which he used to manage the town's caffenoid allotments. You can ask where to find Dr. Williams, and she'll tell you he liked to experiment and ended up in a raptidon-infested cemetery outside of town. This is a lead to another quest, but it also gives you information about the allotments.
   • Option 3: Find Dr. Williams' Body: Following up on Abigail's hint, you can head to the cemetery outside of town to find Dr. Williams' body. This might involve dealing with raptidons, so be prepared. His body may contain information or items related to the caffenoids.
   • Option 4: Other Methods: The text mentions there are
