Why You Should Get The WANTED Trait In Starfield

[@merkazoidduff7651]

Not related to the subject, but since people are so often talking about storage here’s a tip. First of all, on ships there are additional storage boxes, from the captain locker to just plain storage chests. These can be filled and not go against the cargo hold. But there’s also infinite storage on ships, outposts, everywhere. This is called ‘the floor’. Just drop items and they don’t despawn. You can be neater and put stuff on shelves, but say you just made a run and collected like 50 plutonium which is a valuable crafting material but heavy, just drop it on the floor. One caveat with ships however, to avoid a glitch where you may lose loose items you may want to clean up the floor storage before making changes to your ship. I don’t know the details on that exactly, just something to consider.

You know I forget so much about the sandwich collection and good looking out bud 🤘💙

We went similar. I was Bounty Hunter with Hero Worshipped and Wanted but went with Alien DNA seems to be awesome. You get extra health and oxygen but medkita dont work as good that seems great. Plus good backstory.

[@Fargassier]

I def. want to try out the other traits for sure 🤘

[@BombzOnZombz]

I'm starting to regret it. I know I can pay it off. But they coming deep after for me. Like 4 or 5 ships deep.

[@Fargassier]

I definitely love it and might want to upgrade your ship just in case.

[@BombzOnZombz]

@@Fargassier I just upgraded me ship last night and it's night and day. I take back my regret. 😂 I love it. It's to the point with the Bounty Hunters and the Starborn are Blasting at each other over while I'm Hitting them all up. 😂 I put a C Class Reactor on my Razorleaf. And added more firepower. Dope.

I took it basically for the "negative" effects. I wanted the extra action, and opportunity to learn ship combat skills.. Also for my first play through I wanted to give myself a credit boost via console commands just so I could get a jump on exploring more freely not wasting time picking up every coffee mug, and so as to not 'feel' like a total cheat. . So like a roleplaying effect it seemed to fit as a great consequence.. I encountered them just right after the intro as I made my first jump and managed to survive. The second time they mopped the floor with me... After re playing the UC flight simulator a few times and some weapons upgrades I have since mainly done well enough. It's a good way to earn extra ship kills for pilot rank upgrades and definately shakes things up. I have not run into them planetside yet. They seem to always get me when I jump into an unexplored system or orbit. (So I now always keep some juice on my guns and shields) Lastly I found a bounty hunter in Neon that will remove the whole Wanted trait, but decided I want to stick with it. So never mind the positive effects I took it just for the negative.. Gotta say I really love this one.

[@Fargassier]

Honestly if I started a whole new playthrough I think Wanted is a must for me because I am loving the positive and negative effects from it. 🤘

@@Fargassier I got like just over 100 hours in now.. Still not doing main quest past getting my first power.. (so still first play through). Today I just had them attack me planet side for first time. The randomness of it all makes it much more interesting especially if/when you don't have the Crimson fleet as valid targets. I think I had like 300k credits when I met the guy who would remove it for practically the cost of a cheap gun.. I only thought about it for about 30 seconds and was like "... mmm nah." Some of the random Terror Morphs I bump into are the real beasts. The first ones in some of the quest lines were like cuddly puppies compared.

[@helygg8892]

Crimson fleet. You'll get all the creds you need.

[@darkstar3540]

@@helygg8892 I work with them from time to time.. They have a decent black market. It's hardly a gold mine. Especially when just starting the game. That point where you need to decide if you buy a few extra medkits or ammo.. But don't have enough to get both, after you already picked clean every object along your path. Crimson fleet starts the game shooting at you it's not until later that a ceasefire gets called depending on what missions you follow.

[@thizzmonkey7846]

I went soldier alien dna wanted introvert and now sitting at 33 for my first play through and I’m having a lot of fun I’ve done the Terrormorph Quest line for the UC Vanguard and I sided with the Crimson fleet last minute Cuz Ikande was gonna throw me in jail and take all the credit so I said to hell with that and fought off the ship then went and hooked the pirates up. Smuggling has never been more lucrative. I just stated the The empty nest about 15 minutes ago so I’ve got a lot still left for me to contend with I’m very pleased with the game it can be a little irritating at times but in truth Im having fun shooting assholes and smuggling military hardware.

[@Fargassier]

I am loving my time in Starfield. That sounds like a fun space pirate time for sure 🤘

[@TheEru88]

Can you join the UC Vanguard with Wanted. Just started and was thinking soing that qiest but the dude did say i gotta check that I dont have a bounty.

[@Fargassier]

I just did the first mission with them and they didn't say anything about it so I think so.

[@darkstar3540]

It's a special wanted bounty.. You can't pay it off via the wanted board, but there is a few special bounty hunters that will remove the perk for 3k credits. or 4k I forget.. It won't affect your standing with any faction. Think of it as you messed with the wrong guy and the have a special 'off the normal books' bounty out for you.. Maybe you stole an heirloom.. Maybe they have a very personal grudge against you. I have been in every faction with it and only other thing of note is sometimes you get special dialogue options in certain conversations like : (Wanted) "Yeah I know what it's like to be hunted."

[@Fargassier]

@@darkstar3540 I see we both picked that option in the speech check for the bank vault 🤘

[@RickGamesNow]

I took the wanted trait, too. I haven't had anyone defend me!!! Everyone is out for my blood.

[@Fargassier]

They know you are a better pilot then me 😂 I need the help

[@java-x1w]

It starts to lose sense when entering ng+

[@Fargassier]

Oh yeah especially depending on what you want to do in ng+. 🤘

[@danieldykstra4100]

I think I am glad I took extrovert. I will NOT be taking hero Worship again lol. I want to be wanted!

[@Fargassier]

I think on my next playthrough it will be Extrovert, Wanted, and either Taskmaster or something else.

[@rjhamilton7397]

Don’t take alien dna it’s whack.

[@Cav723]

I’m still early game and low level so it’s a pain at the moment.

[@Fargassier]

I understand on that one. Space battles can be rough until some upgrades are made and knowledge learned. 🤘

[@MitchelltheBarbarian]

That's what she said.

[@Fargassier]

What’s that Michael Scott?

Neon is space Office ;)@@Fargassier
