Fastest ways to get Reputation in Star Wars Outlaws
There arethree main waysto gain positive Reputation in Star Wars Outlaws:
Dialogue decisions for gaining Reputation
The one that rewards the most good Reputation isdialogue decisions. Whenever you have to make a big decision toside with one Factionor another during a mission, you earn a good chunk of good Reputation with whomever you choose. It doesn’t happen every time, but sometimes, you gain negative Reputation with the Faction you don’t choose.
Completing Contracts and Intel
When you complete and turn inIntel missions and Contracts, you earn good Reputation. Gaining Reputation is even easier with Contracts because the arrows give you a sense of how much good Reputation you get. It’s hard to lose Reputation doing this, but it may happen during your escapades.
At the end of a Contract,you always have the option to double-cross. Doing this gives you negative Reputation with the Faction whose job it is, but you always get better rewards and a bit of good Reputation with the other Faction. you may even do this at the end ofthe Underworld mission.
Giving Data
Last but not least, you cansell Datato Syndicate Merchants to earn Reputation. When you sell Data, you’ll see exactly how much Reputation you gain which makes this a great source of Good Reputation. Also, there’s almost no way to get bad Reputation from giving Data.
The only tricky part about giving data isData is hard to come by. I’ve had luck finding Data during missions and exploring the open world. My advice is to read every datapad. You don’t know if it’ll have Data or even Intel.
How to not lose Reputation in Star Wars Outlaws
The last thing you want to do in Star Wars Outlaws is lose Reputation, but know that it will happen. Reputation comes and goes as you choose your allegiance case by case. Here arethe four main ways you can lose Reputationin Star Wars Outlaws:
Dialogue decisions for losing Reputation
While you can get good Reputation withdialogue decisions, they can also lose your Reputation depending on the scenario. Generally, if you double cross the Faction you’re working for, you lose Reputation.
Trespassing
Every Reputation category has effects you need to be aware of. Even with Good Reputation, you cantrespass on top-secret areasof a Syndicate you’re close with. Whether you’reseen on your Speeder zooming through a non-friendly Faction zoneor you get caught in a Syndicate area you’re not supposed to be in, you’ll lose Reputation for Trespassing.
If anyone catches you stealingin a Syndicate zone, you lose Reputation for stealing. Makes sense. Besides not getting caught, the only way to steal with no Reputation loss is tohave Excellent Reputation with the Factionyou’re stealing from. Then it’s just “borrowing”.
Disrupting and brawling
If you fight inside a Faction area, you’re Reputation goes down. It’ll be either disrupting or brawling, but either way, you, understandably, lose Reputation. Instead of duking it out with Faction members, spend time learninghow to claim your bonus content DLC.
