Starfield Crimson Fleet questline: All quests and rewards

There are multiple factions for you to join in Starfield, and you can join each and every one of them if you fancy the challenge. That said, some of Starfield’s factions are at war with one another, or at the very least, aren’t the best of friends, and you’ll want to keep this in mind.

Two such factions that have collided with one another are the Crimson Fleet, who are a bunch of space-faring pirates, and the UC SysDef, who are tasked with protecting the settled systems from illegal activities. If you’re looking to join the Crimson Fleet and take part in the climactic showdown between the two factions, here’s Starfield’s Crimson Fleet questline and what rewards you can expect.

• Legacy’s End - 350 XP, 250,000 Credits

How this quest plays out depends on the decision you made in the last one, but either way, it will bring your time completing faction quests for the Crimson Fleet to an end. You can gain a rare weapon from either UC Commander Kibwe or Crimson Fleet’s Delgado as a reward.
