I'm not sure if it is just me or others have found this problem but i did a settlement kill mission today i incurred bounties due to this and the other day i was in super cruise and got interdicted and attacked and when i fought back i incurred bounties again i am wondering why it is like this
Crimes on missions carrying over
- Thread starter SoulreaverZero
- Start date
Probably a bounty hunter trying to collect on the existing bounty, therefore killing them was a crime because they were performing a legal mission.
What the user above said.
It's simple:
Actions have consequences, they don’t just get wiped. That wouldn’t make any sense.
(though you can clear all sins at an interstellar factor)
It's simple:
- If you got a bounty it's because you committed criminal actions.
- If you have a bounty, bounty hunters can attack you.
- If you attack back you are committing once more a criminal act.
Actions have consequences, they don’t just get wiped. That wouldn’t make any sense.

Solution in few simple steps:
1) pledge Archon Delaine
2) reach Rank 100
3) do your crime biz in Archon Delaine space as you will not receive fines/bounties anymore
Win/win
Another solution: Be a real merc and stop caring about bounties. Pay them at the IF when applicable, hand yourself in from time to time if you happen to gain notoriety.Solution in few simple steps:
1) pledge Archon Delaine
2) reach Rank 100
3) do your crime biz in Archon Delaine space as you will not receive fines/bounties anymore
Win/win
Fair enough i didn't think of that but any idea why i incurred bounties after a kill the target mission and thank you for the feed back
Fair enough but why did it carry over from the kill the target mission you should not gain bounties from killing the target i can understand if you kill others but the target has a kill order so it should be bounties free and look i don't go out of my way to commit crimes i have had the occasional miss hap while learning ground combat but for the most part i have been bounties free
nah bro i mostly am a good player i have just incurred a few bounties while learning ground combat but thanks for the advice I'm archer for life lolSolution in few simple steps:
1) pledge Archon Delaine
2) reach Rank 100
3) do your crime biz in Archon Delaine space as you will not receive fines/bounties anymore

i don't like being interdicted all the time so this don't work for me because I'm not always in a combat ship i may be mining or trading or mat gathering
something in here may answer your question
elite-dangerous.fandom.com
missions may be legal in some systems and ilegal in others if you dont have a kws and use it maybe
if its an anarcic sys anything goes afaiaa
i only kill thargoids nowadays so i am out of touch
Crime & Punishment
Crime & Punishment refers to the game mechanics in Elite Dangerous that punish certain player actions that are classified as "criminal behavior" according to in-universe rules. Typically, players who commit crimes will accumulate Notoriety, bounties, and fines, which incentivizes other players...

i know why i incurred that bounties now it wasn't an anarchy faction so i got it regardless i understand now i wont be doing those again unless it is a anarchy faction thank you everyone for the help i appreciate it
i would have thought a kws will clear you for the kill if its a legal mission.......................
some missions are illegal though no matter what methinks
glad your somewhat more enlightened

I think someone else has already clarified this.
Anyway, just to add my 2 cents: don’t just assume that any mission you’re given is legal.
Factions aren’t the police, the fact that they give you missions, doesn't mean that they can do whatever they like and that anything they ask is legal.
They’re just corporations looking out for their own interests. This applies to any power, faction, or minor faction. So sometimes they like to hire mercenaries to do their dirty work.
That is why I mostly do kill missions when the settlements are anarchy, i always check via inara prior to accepting these type of missions.
