5 most wanted: Federation.

[Unpleasant]

I've seen in the news the 5 most wanted.

Can anyone tell me how these cmdrs have such high bounties on their heads?

How are they surviving in space with these bounties? Are the docking at regular stations in anarchy space?

Any info would be appreciated.

Its easier to increase your combat rank if you don't discriminate targets.

So they incur fines for shooting/killing clean ships?
Then they just don't pay the fines? Is that all?

Where do they go to reload, refuel and such?

 

[flosculus]

I don't think wanted status effects your permission to dock at stations.

I don't think wanted status effects your permission to dock at stations.

But if a station scans you, it'll fire if you're wanted?

Non federation space and outposts.

but wouldnt that kind of law-breaking in fed space lead to a hostile reputation - no more docking?

Non federation space and outposts.

So they could be hitting clean targets in fed space, then nipping off to empire or allegiance space to dock?

 

[nariquo]

only go to an intepended system or anarchi and thats it. around sol there are many

I see the top most wanted cmdr has a bounty of around 1.5 million, hangs around lave space.

I guess he must be hunting in lave, rather than docking to reload or refuel there?

Edit: Ah, lave is alligence.

 

[nariquo]

you want get them. the list only shows you there last position. or even the last docking or killing. it dont show you where they are right now OR if the are even online so well.....

no, only authority vessels scan you,stations only fire if those vessels find out you're wanted. Hence why you can sneak in to any station ,even if you're wanted(just avoid scans)

In my situation, I dislike the empire so I use their system and their authority vessels (and sometimes players) to test my abilities and I use my own bounty as a trophy in hopes that someday some player will attempt to claim it off my head

So how does it work for you? Do you kill clean ships in empire space (alligence?) then fly to fed space to reload, repair and refuel?
Do the fines and bounties you incur only apply in empire space? I guess with a KWS someone could see your bounty and claim it right?

I could be wrong but I believe there is no increase of combat rating for the murder of passive clean ships only the killing of aggressive wanted ones.

 

[Seonid]

Combat rating of the destroyed ship is the only thing that counts.

Yes, that's exactly how it works. Every empire held system considers me as hostile now. It's very difficult to even travel in those sectors due to the high rate of interdictions.

Basically the top 5 bounty list people will dock anywhere they want, they will be attacked by the security ships outside of the station and if they don't shoot back they are safe as soon as they fly inside the station its no biggie, when they are in federation space they will be constantly interdicted by federation authority ships, it was happening to me every 10 seconds. They got the huge bountys by killing federation authority ships, if they die to a authority ship they will have to pay there bounty off at the insurance buyback screen at 150% plus a another fee my bounty was 2.7million and I ended up paying 4 million back then the cycle starts again even though your now clean and have no record all the federation ships still attack you constantly and if you fire back you will be come wanted again, I clear saved and have positive rep with all the factions.

False, the second you are scanned that station will blow you up in seconds. If you are within 3Km of that station when you are scanned then you are not leaving that area alive.

 

[Pheyes]

that why you don't get scanned when you dock, the security ships don't bother to scan you because they know your hostile already so its no problem. Have you even been hostile yet?
