VIG/RIP reputation from -25 or -30

Post by bof111 »

Hi,

I'm planning my new start and wanted to know if someone could give me a value of how much missions (per difficulty) i should do to get VIG rep back from -25 and -30 to at least -19 (where they give missions themselves)
Or if you have another way to do it.
Same goes for RIP but, from -30 there is no way to get missions for them and built your rep back, right ? I wasn't able to find i way to do it.

Thanks

i have done over 100 signal leaks missions on the vigor and it didn't go from -29 to -28 i gave up at some point.
from -30 to -29 is fast 2-3 missions

I assume that the Muiltipikator (reputation booster) is set incorrectly

With the RIP I have never yet found a signal leak mission and I assume that from a point (-10) it is impossible to get back to -9 or better with them.

This thread seems to agree that it is a one-way street after a bad fall in VIG rep not recoverable via the ToA plot.

but it should still be possible to farm reputation via signal leaks. and yes, the increase is vanishingly small with the current (reputation booster). you can track the values in the save as they increase by 0.001 if you save after completion, unpack it and compare the values before completion.

I didn't really care because I destroyed them completely and the Argons started building their stations there.
After the first Argon admin centre, the VIG don't build any more stations :eg:

Well ok, then it's quite hazardous to set them to -30.
Then what would be the lowest rep value you would set for VIG and RIP where we could still fix it afterwards ? -20 ? -25 ? -19 ?

I've tested and they give station missions at -19 (last value). May i ask why -10 ? Is there some bug at lower levels to go up again ?

Thanks for the link but the tread is quite old now. Wasn't this fixed ?

But at what value the booster is again effective ? I wouldn't like to set a reputation that is not recoverable anymore but i don't what to have the neutral from the start either.

As far as I'm aware, it should theoretically be recoverable at any point, even if you are at -30 or beyohnd the point where VIG themselves will grant you missions, assuming you're not talking about the temporary drop to -30 during the Northriver plot.
TEL stations should have a chance to grant criminal missions offered by VIG via mission leaks, which should allow you to eventually repair reputation with them up to a point where they will give you missions/docking rights again.

"Theoretically" and "eventually" are doing a huge lift there, though, because at -30 the number of those missions you'd need to do is pretty huge I think, if it's anything like how long it takes to get from +20 to +30.
