Oh, how they hate me...

[Drake]

So, quite a number of factions, especially unlawful factions, hate my guts. As a trader who (eventually, when I can manage to get my rep with them up) plans on being Zoner-allied, I'd like to be friends, or at least neutral, with as many factions as possible.

So would someone be able to point me in the direction of some neutral bases where I might be able to purchase Outcast and/or Junker bribes? Those are the major ones I'd like to play friendly with, though the Hackers, Hessians, Rogues, Dragons and several others also have a dislike for me.

Secondly, I'm just short of green with the Zoners, and I've bought a couple of bribes with them before (though after the first they didn't really seem to do much of anything). Is there anything I can do to raise my rep with them? I'd like to be zoner tagged/ID'd, but it's proving... Difficult.

Anyway, thanks ahead of time.

npcs i think he means, junker bases for outcasts and junker bribe i think..

But its quite easy to get a new char neutral to 90% of factions for a trader char, just takes a little bit of work to do it.

Yes, NPCs.

And that's the problem... Not a new characters. The Junkers and Outcasts are already hostile to me, so I can't land on their bases to look for bribes. Is there anywhere to locate Junker or Outcast bribes other than on a Junker or Outcast base?

And the Zoner rep question still stands... I know my reps would likely be easier fixed if I just started a new character, but I really would rather not. I'd have to re-explore everything...

You could always get a temporary fighter and hunt nomads and wild for a while.
Plus nomad blastes are good money with other players.

Check Zoner bases, they'll have a variety of bribes for several unlawful groups that work with them. Also check bases for other unlawful groups like Blood Dragons, Hogosha, Xenos, Rogues, etc.

Well, to get zoner ID'd &Tagged, do this :
first, make sure zoners are neutral with you, completely ( recommend : new char )
then, go to a Freeport where they have 2 people who give away bribes, the bartender, and annother patron who gives away bribes.
now, when you have that, you will have to make sure that they both give away zoner bribes AT THE SAME TIME.
mostly the bartender gives away a zoner bribe, when he does that, keep walking in and out of the room untill the other guy has a zoner bribe as well.
DONT Renew your char, or you will loose the bartenders zoner bribe!

There is a much easier way to get a Zoner tag....


Get a zoner bribe wherever. Then! Go to either Manchester or Shikoku(?) and knock out the BHG depots there. Watch that Zoner rep go up! Now take missions for any faction against BHG. And it should give you the tag in a hurry...

[Exile]

Ah right, the new way of doing it.
BHG=Order enemy, Order = zoner ally.
dumb me, missed it!

[Drake]

Ah, thanks for the tips, I'll give the double-bribe a try first and if that doesn't work, blow up some BHG. Haven't had much luck finding unlawful bribes on the Zoner bases, but I'll keep looking. Problem is, I'm pretty much hated by all unlawful factions save the Corsairs and Gaians (don't ask me why they like me so much), so neutral bases are pretty much my only shot. Corsair bribes are easy to find, but I don't need those...
