Bounties

“So you want to join the bounty hunters guild?”

- Ratch Karga

Overview
Bounty hunting is a good, and effective way of earning credits in the Outer Rim. They’re easy to get, only needing to head to a guild bar, and pick up a contract. They can give you around 800 to 1100 at level 1, and keep going up the more levels you pass. At around level 30, you can start grabbing bounties for much larger amounts of credits.

Player bounties
Sometimes NPC bounties just aren’t enough and you may need to resort to player hunting. Players can accumulate a bounty on their head by simply assassinating another player inside of a town. It is most oftenly seen on Hotth, where players will have large amounts of bounties. The maximum player bounty as of 12/3/20 is 2,000 credits. Hopefully this number will go up in the future.

How to
If you haven’t already, please do the tutorial. Though, if you’re still confused (somehow) here’s how to do NPC bounties.


 * 1) Head to the guild bar, located right as you walk into Nevarro town’s front entrance.
 * 2) Sit at one of the many booths, and pick a bounty you want.
 * 3) Please note that by jumping out of your seat and jumping in another booth, you can refresh the bounty options.
 * 4) A bounty tracker should appear on the right side of your screen, if you have selected one.
 * 5) The tracker numbers will increasingly go down and turn red if you’re heading in the right direction.
 * 6) If the numbers are increasingly rising and turn blue, you’re going in the wrong direction.
 * 7) Bring the carbonite that the NPC drops back to the guild bounty return.

Tips

 * Use a heavy weapon, as it deals a lot of damage toward NPCs. (DLT19x is a good option.)
 * The ability flamethrower will get the job done very quickly, and with ease.
 * It is recommended that you first unlock your jetpack ability, in order to get to high places where your bounty might be.
 * Try to avoid other players when you’re carrying carbonite, as they may just want to steal it from you.
 * Only NPCs with guns have bounties, so if you see one kill them as they will almost certainly form carbonite.
 * Bounty gangmembers, while not your main target, will still give you exp if you kill them.
