Unlike other games, Watch Dogs Legion lets you play as and recruit any character that you come in contact with. The “N” was removed from the NPC in this game. As your building your team of operatives, you may be trying to figure out the best members to recruit to your team. Without a doubt, the Police officer also known as the Albion Contractor should be one of the first that you have on your list to recruit. Keep reading below to see some benefits and how you can get one on your team…
Finding an Officer
- Restricted Areas
As you’ve been exploring around the city and doing missions, you may have noticed that there are quite a bit of areas that are marked red. These areas are restricted without the correct uniform. If you tried to enter this area without the right uniform, you probably found out the hard way, that the area may be well protected. These are also the same areas that you can look to find an Albion Contractor.
- Locating an Officer
Drive around the city and look for the people that have on the same uniform for the area that you are entering. If you’re not sure if the person is an officer when you open your phone and look at the player details, it will tell you the person’s profession.
- Character Details #1
It is also smart to first add your target recruit to your team and check out the mission and character details before you start the recruit mission. To check out the potential recruit, just open the player main menu and go to the team tab.
- Character Details #2
In the team tab, scroll to the bottom section that says potential recruits and find the new character that you added.
- Character Details #3
You can see the weapons and skills that the player can use and you can see a full bio. If you are not sure what profession the character is, you can see it here.
- Character Details #4
You can also check out the mission that you will have to complete and you can start tracking the mission right from the same menu.
- Character Details #5
Unfortunately, many of the police officers don’t like DedSec especially if you have not unlocked the borough you are currently in. If you have a message that tells you that your recruit hates DedSec, you need to take a look at the player’s deep profile mission. You will need to complete these missions first before you can get the officer you are trying to recruit. You’ll also need to have the deep profiler ability unlocked to start the mission.
- Start and Complete the Recruitment Mission
The missions you get will vary and once you completed it, you will get a call from the officer telling you that they will be joining up.
