How to Use SID in Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora

The Systems Interrogation Device (SID) is a human hacking tool used for manipulating electronics devices. Our How to Use SID in Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora will tell you everything you need to know about this gadget that can temporarily disable or completely immobilize electronic devices making it much easier to achieve your task.

SID is given to you at the Resistance Headquarters during the 'Welcome to the Resistance' main quest when you encounter the human called Alexanda Tremayne. You will be able to meet this scientist once you have helped heal So'lek.

SID will come in useful for solving timed puzzles and during combat when you have to deal with electronic technology. These things include opening locked RDA crates, opening doors and rerouting power, and hacking turrets to temporarily disable them in battle.

How to Use SID

Once you have been given SID by Alexander Tremayne he will ask for your help in fixing some power boxes. This task acts as a tutorial that will show you how to properly operate the tool. Whenever you find yourself in a situation where SID can be used, a prompt will appear in the bottom-right corner of the screen, showing a tool and a wrench. Below are the instructions for using SID:

• Step 1

  Equip SID by holding LB + Y on Xbox, L1 + 'Triangle' on PlayStation, or the 5 key on your keyboard if you are playing on PC.

• Step 2

  Aim the tool at any electronic machine you would like to hack into. If the machine can be hacked a circle with a wrench inside of it will appear. Also, the circuits that attach it to another machine will begin to glow.

• Step 3

  Lightly press RT on Xbox, R2 on PlayStation, and left-click + E or Q on PC until both circles overlap. Once both circles have overlapped, release every button.

• Step 4

  Follow the glowing wires to the next part and repeat the previous steps. Once you reach the faulty node, the wrench icon on the target will be replaced by a circuit web icon.

• Step 5

  Now repeat steps 1-3 and wait for the minigame to appear. Use the left stick to move and create a path from the starting point to the exit. Once you reach the exit (the point on the map with the circuit web icon), the machine will be disabled/triggered.

How to Automate Hacking

If you start to find the puzzles a little tedious and would rather skip them so you can continue playing the game you can do so by automating the hacking. To do this you need to go to 'Settings' and set the hacking to 'Auto-Complete'. This will allow you to use the Systems Interrogation Device in Avatar Frontiers of Pandora without having to go through the difficult puzzles.
