You get the mission "Dismantling the Machine" from Lord Zash on Dromund Kaas after completing "At the Foot of the Colossus"

Open your mission log:
Dismantling the Machine
Lord Zash has commissioned an anti-cyborg weapon in order to defeat Darth Skotia. Unfortunately, the scientist who developed the weapon, Dorotsech, is being held captive by the rogue Sith Lord Grathan. Lord Zash has procured a keycard that should get you in to see Dorotesch. Go to the Cybernetics Lab in Lord Grathan's Estate and use the keycard to open the door to free Dorotsech. Then, retrieve the weapon and dispose of him.

Your first task is to unlock Dorotseech's chambers. Exit Kaas City and  take the road west through Initiate's Path, then south past the bridge. Make a pit stop in Revanite Compound to bind yourself and unlock the taxi route, as well as take care of any side missions you have in the area.

From the Revanite camp, go NE and follow the road around the mountain as it turns SE. Make a stop in a base called "The Wall" to bind and unlock a speeder station. Cross the wall and a bridge towards Grathan's Estate. Open the map to locate the entrance to the Cybernetics lab. Enter the Sith Inquisitor Phase Story Area. Interact with the Door Panel to unlock Dorotsech's chambers. Then, speak to Dorotsech.

Tell him you want his invention, the device that can harm cyborgs. He tells you it is called a cyber neutralizer. Tell him you want to use it to kill Skotia. Dorotsech explains that Lord Zash commisioned this weapon against cyborgs - but most cyborgs are only ten percent machine. You'd need someone at least fifty percent machine for the neutralizer to do any real damage. Insist that he gives you the machine. He sais it is in the lab building, but you'll need to steal the power cells of Grathan's droids.

You now have to decide what to do with Dorotsech. Lord Zash ordered you to "silence" him. Your dialog options are:
Time to shut up
Keep your lips sealed (LIGHT)
Goodbye [Kill him] (DARK)



The second option spares Dorotsech's life and gives you some Light points. The third option kills Dorotsech, giving you 100 dark points and 15 affection points with Khem-Val. Your task now is to collect the power cells that Dorotsech told you about. Exit the building, and kill droids in this area until you have looted enough power cells used to power the prototype. Then, all which remains is to infiltrate Grathan's bunker to get the weapon. The Weapons research lab is on the second level of the Central Compound of Lord Grathan's estate. Find the Central Compound on the map and enter it. Take elevator down to level 2. When you get there, you need to deactivate the electrical field. Before doing so, though, you can complete a bonus mission "Cybernetic Saborage" by defeating 5 of Grathan's Weapons researchers, and destroying 3 Cybernetics research consoles.

After deactivating the electric field, the alarm. Destroy Grathan's security droids that are dispatched. Then take the Cyber Neutralizer. This prototype device emits a strong ion pulse which should severely hamper the cybernetic components that make up Darth Skotia. Now return to Lord Zash. The fastest way is to quick travel to the Nexus Room Cantina in Kaas City and from there head to her chamber. Tell her you have recovered the device.

She tells you that Skotia is in his chambers as we speak. Be ready - even with the power you have over him, he will be a frightful sight. Set your nerves of cortosis. Turn your fear into hatred. Remember - Skotia stands between us and glory

Your dialog choices are:
I can't wait
Of course
I'm still skeptical

Choose the first one for 15 affection points with Khem Val

Lord Zash tells you how you are going to go about killing Darth Skotia. The relic you found under the colossus is the key to Skotia's power over his Trandoshan bodyguards. Go to Skotia's chamber and show them the relic. The Trandoshans should stand down, or attack him, or something. The confusion should be enough. This is the first step.

The next dialog choices are:
I don't like surprises
Why do I have to do that?
And the tech next

Try the first choice. Zash reassures that the confusion should be enough. You'll have to improvise the particulars. That's what makes it fun. With the bodyguards gone, you can get close enough to Skotia to use the prototype you stole from Grathan's. But be mindful, Skotia may be more machine than man, but he's no weakling in the Force. Killing him will still be a challenge.

Your choices are:
Excellent
You think I can do it?
I doubt it

Choose the first dialog option for 40 Khem Val Affection Points. Lord Zash says she is due at a party at the Nexus Room Cantina and to meet her there when you are done.

Along with credits and experience, you can choose either a Dromand Kaas Commendation or Khem Val's Layered Pants as a reward.

This completes the mission "Dismantling the Machine" and starts the mission "Giant Killer".
