Navigating the cyberpunk streets of Anno Mutationem requires a keen eye for detail, especially when tackling investigative side missions like the Find The Suspect quest. Players take control of Ann as she analyzes clues, interrogates local citizens, and tracks down elusive targets across neon-lit districts. Successfully completing this quest requires understanding how to utilize scanning tools and systematically process environmental evidence.
Starting the Find The Suspect Mission
To initiate the quest, players must speak with the local officer stationed near the district security hub. The officer provides initial details regarding a recent crime and assigns Ann the task of identifying a suspect hiding in plain sight. Reviewing your quest log early ensures you understand the primary search area boundaries before beginning the sweep.
Gathering Evidence and Scanning the Area
Investigation in Anno Mutationem relies heavily on Ann's scanning abilities to highlight hidden items and interactive objects. Activate your vision mode while exploring the crowded streets to locate physical footprints, discarded items, or compromised terminals. Interacting with every highlighted point of interest updates your log with essential details required to pinpoint the culprit.
Interrogating Witnesses and Narrowing Down Candidates
Once initial clues are gathered, speak with nearby non-player characters to gather witness testimony. Comparing NPC responses against the evidence collected allows you to eliminate innocent bystanders from your list of suspects. Pay close attention to subtle contradictions in dialogue, as they often reveal who is withholding critical information.
Confronting the Suspect and Resolving the Quest
After filtering through the potential targets, approach the individual whose description and behavior match all recovered evidence. Initiating a dialogue confrontation will trigger the final sequence of the quest, which may lead to a combat encounter depending on your dialogue choices. Defeating or detaining the target completes the objective, allowing you to return to the quest giver for your reward.
