Can some fill me in what the reputation of merc can have and weapons they can use? also are they allowed certain ships?
Im not a noob but made my first noob mistake:crazy:
they were allowed every ship, every weapon back then. - now they are allowed everything up to a gunboat - probably except the most unlikely stuff like corsair stuff or pure outcast stuff. there are few restrictions when its about gear. its more down the roleplay.
Well, like Jinx said, a Merc can have pretty much anything within it's ID restrictions. But you gotta try to keep it in Roleplay. Like, you don't want to see a Wrath with Tizona's and an Inferno equip... Try to keep yourself to one side and stick with the equipment they give you.
Also, as Jinx said once, Mercs rely a lot in their reputations. So try and stick to your general reputation when choosing your equipment. If you are a more lawful sided Merc, prefer lawful equipment and vice-versa. I think that's what got you busted.
If you use a lawful ship, stick to lawful weapons. If your a merc with an unlawful ship, you should stick to unlawful weapons, but from side of the war the faction your ship is from. So if you have a Blood Dragon VHF, you can use unlawful weaps, but NOT Corsair gear.. Its also a good idea to work for unlawfuls if you have an unlawful ship.
