In the video, Law the West provides tips for quickly raising bounty hunting reputation in Star Citizen, emphasizing the importance of focusing on wanted missions for efficient progress. He explains that while Pro Temp player bounties and entrenched bounties present challenges and risks, wanted missions offer a simpler and faster way to build reputation and unlock additional rewards.
In the video, Law the West provides a straightforward guide on how to efficiently raise your bounty hunting reputation in Star Citizen, focusing on overcoming the initial grind to access more rewarding missions. He outlines three types of verified bounty hunting missions available from the start: Pro Temp player bounties, entrenched bounties, and wanted missions. Each type offers different challenges and rewards, but the emphasis is on finding the quickest way to build reputation rather than maximizing profits.
The Pro Temp player bounties are highlighted as the most challenging and potentially rewarding missions. However, they come with significant risks, as players face unpredictable opponents who may be well-prepared or camped in advantageous locations. These missions can be lengthy and may not yield quick results, making them less ideal for players looking to rapidly increase their reputation level.
Entrenched bounties, which involve bunker missions, are described as particularly time-consuming due to the presence of automated defenses that can damage ships. Law recommends landing outside the range of these defenses and using ground vehicles to approach the target. This approach requires careful planning and can be complicated by enemy patrols, making these missions less efficient for reputation grinding.
In contrast, the wanted missions are presented as the best option for quickly raising bounty hunting reputation. Although they offer lower payouts, they are consistently available and located near each other, allowing players to complete them in quick succession. The simplicity of the mission parameters—typically requiring the elimination of just one ship—means that even beginner ships can be used effectively.
Law concludes by encouraging players to focus on wanted missions to reach the associate tracker level quickly. Achieving this level unlocks additional mission types and a 10% payout bonus, enhancing the overall bounty hunting experience. He reassures viewers that by following his advice, they can efficiently progress through the initial stages of bounty hunting in Star Citizen.
