Nope, no failed missions.

Furthermore, I am rolling around with immunity down south at the moment, apparently I'm friendly enough with everyone to avoid all encounters!

My rep in SS is still slipping, my bounty is still increasing. I'm not particularly concerned, just very curious as to why this would be the case. I have run a few travels both down south and around SS and elms, with no encounters. My only other activity is to hit raiders around SS and Thebes. What is going on?

With the southern runs, I'm getting no encounters with a sub 20 scout. I guess this means I should start doing cargo runs down that way!

So I've been a DRM member in pretty good standing for quite a while. My rep with them, as of this morning, was "respected." Gotta be the high end of respected, cuz a couple days ago I used two towns' worth of hero points on increasing my rep with those guys.

I finally completed the "Racing for the Mob" narrative missions. Did the last race as the DRM wanted, not winning the race but finishing fairly well...

...and now my rep with them is a whopping "Neutral."

Something seems broken here. I apologize for not reading 15 pages of posts to see if this is mentioned already, but wow, these mafia types are some fickle S.O.B.s, ain't they?

Does losing scouts affect you reputation. My merchant rep is slipping negative and I have not been targeting them. I have lost a scout to evans reds and mutants though. I haven't failed any courier or taxi missions.

Targeting Evans Reds in Morgan. Mutants in Shanty and Sars. I have one scout vs Merchants or Civs (not sure which) in SS. But Merch rep has been steadily dropping for the last week. Really not sure how rep works.

Yes Failed scouts changes rep some.
    The best way to get the rep to move is hit highest famed gangs and RED as many as possible.  The lower the fame is on your target the less reward "REPUTATION" you will get from each kill, trader gangs also give a lower rep bump. This can be good if you looking to get some goods and not trash your standings with a faction.

  Rader, Anarchists, and Privateers will help Merchant rep the most. even reds give 1\2 the rep per kill muties  I forgot to look but there low also there best for Civ reputation as are slavers.

Thanks Boon. Didn't realize losing scouts would affects rep much. Been focusing on courier and taxi missions because of my substandard gang, but those dry up when civ and merchant reps drop. I need to be more careful. :thinking:

I'm going to guess that a hefty portion of the missions you've been running have been into Shanty.
Keep in mind that missions also move rep.

Also remember that losing scouts affects your gangs morale too. You start at 100 and the highest your morale can be is 200. Once it starts to dip below 100 will give you negative effects.

I have not read this anywhere, but I believe there is a possibility your gangers could walk out and leave your gang the closer your morale gets to zero. If anyone can verify this, please add comments.

Sort of running everywhere, except FL.  Haven't worked up to driving there yet.  Most of my missions are pretty low level, but Shanty is actually a very low percentage of them.  I think the rep hit is a function of losing a vehicle to ambush and losing two vehicles in bad solo scouts.  That link is pretty helpful; I will have to study it.  thanks Augustus.

I try to keep morale between 190 and 200 barring the weekly reset to 160-169 each week.  I don't tend to lose many scouts, mostly because I can't afford to.  Most of the time I run when things go bad.  This last week was exceptionally bad.  First time I lost a vehicle travelling in the last three months.  Then one scout where I should have run but didn't.  Then another scout on a map I hadn't been on where I ran into a dead end more or less.

And I got smacked on a return by slavers earlier in the week. It was a really bad week, actually. I guess word gets around when you are getting thumped.

I'd check your back if I were you - think someone might have painted a target on there!

It must be the Droogs.  They chase me and yell foul things every time I drive through Shanty.  I think they even payed Snipe to chase me around Texan last night and soften up my armor for them.

No, he is hunting everybody. Said he would buy me a drink afterwards, but I was on a travel at my exit point. So I got to do my next two encounters with low rear armor. Always exciting for me. :D

Yup..like rats leaving a sinking ship. You get a decent chance of rehiring 'em though. (Once morale back up...I believe lack of food n water affects morale as well - took a too long hiatus once with low food, H2O n cash...lost 3 or 4...hired 2 of 'em back.)

I wouldn't put too much faith in the accuracy of this page. Wiki is very outta date plus DW a highly dynamic game. I believe there is a +ve relationship between Civs n Reds for example.
