turning to the evil side

[emicampo]

Hi! Anyones knows if i start selling potions to the "bad" guys the special NPCs (dave, the succubus, the rpg guy) keep coming??

[Flunsi]

when you hover over "Reputation", it says, if you sell potions to bad guys, more bad guys will come.
havent tried it yet tho.

[emicampo]

yeah but i had the best reputation and the vampire (i suppose a bad guy) keeps coming... it seems that special NPCs dont be affected by reputation

Yeah, unique NPCs will come regardless of reputation. Dave the Diver and the Dragonborn still came by when my store was full of brigands and bandits.

Bold of you to assume the Dragonborn is anything but morally ambivalent.

Like mine, who became very good at stealing and making poisons that both paralyze and deal HP damage.

I wondered how to turn to evil, I never could figure it out. It seemed like I turned good by default.

The game kinda does push you towards good by default. If you serve everyone you tend to end up maxing out good points even if you occasionally lose some.

To get evil you have to actively reject any normal (not specials, those are fine) 'good' patrons, and that gives you enough evil points to start seeing a reasonable number of evil patrons. After that just sell only to evil patrons and you can be super evil in a matter of days.

Reject some of the good ones, and sell to evil ones.
When your Rep numbers start to go into the negative, you will see more and more evil people come in. at around -20 or -30 i almost exclusively had only bad people buy my potions so it was very easy to reach the -100

I don't think the obvious vampire is evil since he still shows up with positive rep, you don't get negative rep for helping him, and he seems to be minding his own business

What vampire? That's just Jackie Daytona, regular human bartender!

I love that he's called a Suspiciously Pale Lord from the update notes haha

I'm at +100 rep currently, is there any way to get negative without tanking my popularity?

You can upgrade the skill that reduces popularity loss for rejecting requests, it can basically just let you lose only one point of reputation. Just keep rejecting customers for a few days and you'll start getting some eviler customers that you can rely on to build up evil rep
