Walkthrough
The mission "One Small Step" begins with a lengthy elevator descent, during which you'll hear chatter about mining from a couple of characters. Once the elevator stops, you're free to move. Follow Supervisor Lin as she leads the way through the mining tunnel.
Supervisor Lin will pause and instruct you to pick up the Cutter from a nearby crate. Interact with the crate to grab the Cutter, holding down the interaction button to equip it immediately. Now armed, proceed to a designated section in the tunnel with marked spots for mineral deposits. Use your newly acquired Cutter to shoot at these marks and mine Beryllium. There are five spots in total; make sure to mine them all.
After you've collected the mineral deposits, return to Supervisor Lin and continue following her through the tunnel. Your journey will take you to a large machine drilling into a cavern wall. Here, Lin and another character, Heller, will guide you to explore the cavern ahead.
In this new area, you'll encounter a cavern with a peculiar rock at its center. Use your Cutter to break up the deposits around this centerpiece. Once cleared, interact with an object embedded in the wall for a scripted scene.
Post-scene, you'll be taken to the character creation. Here, you can customize your physical appearance, select your background for initial Skills and choose unique Traits that will have minor effects throughout your playthrough.
Dialogues open up after character customization. While dialogue options generally don't affect the main story, they can provide additional information. Feel free to engage in these dialogues as you like. Continue following Supervisor Lin and, before stepping out into the open, make sure to equip your Deep Mining Space Helmet from your inventory.
The next step is to meet with the client. Wait at the ship for Barrett to appear and speak to both Lin and you. However, just as you're getting acquainted, pirates crash the party. A nearby marker will guide you to a crate containing a pistol. Equip this from your inventory to deal with the pirate invaders more effectively than with your Cutter.
After neutralizing the threat, speak with Barrett once more. He'll give you a watch and send you off with your new companion, Vasco. Board the ship by interacting with the ladder in the hold.
Take the pilot's seat and take off from Vectera. Once in space, you'll undergo a brief tutorial on flying and managing your ship's systems. Soon after, a Crimson Fleet ship warps in, initiating your first space combat scenario. Destroy the ship, and then scavenge its wreckage for items.
Upon dispatching two more enemy ships, you're directed to the Starmap. Choose Kreet, a moon, as your destination and fast-travel there. Land at the Kreet Research Base and make your way downhill. A Scanner tutorial will pop up, teaching you how to identify various resources and entities on the planet.
Inside the Research Base, you'll have to deal with Crimson Fleet members. Navigate through the base, eliminating enemies and looting weapons. A ladder at the end will take you up to the rooftop for the final confrontation. Here, you can either persuade the Captain to leave or engage in combat.
Once the Captain and their crew are dealt with, head back to your ship. If you'd like, you can continue exploring Kreet or proceed with the story. Use the Starmap to Grav Jump to Jemison and then land at New Atlantis.
At New Atlantis, you're headed for the Lodge in the MAST District. Feel free to engage with Ship Services Technicians for ship repairs and upgrades. Once at the Lodge, you'll enter the library and meet Sarah. Listen through the meeting and place the artifact you collected earlier on a designated pedestal.
After the scene concludes, speak to Sarah one more time to complete the mission.
