Consequences of killing pack brahmin scavvers.

[Toyosatomimi no Miko]

I know all you get is a karma loss when you kill generic scavvers (and eventually the regulators coming after your ass when your karma stays low enough for a while). But I'm hearing conflicting reports on what happens when you kill merchant scavvers. you know, the ones with the pack brahmin and the wasteland merchant outfit.

Some say you just take the karma loss as usual, others say it actually increases the time before nearby traders get resupplied or stops resupply entirely.

Can someone clear this up for me, I don't want to ruin my game in the process of being evil.

It may seem like forever starting out, but aqyuriring and repairing inferior weapon/armour to max and tradeing them you will have what you want and eventually be saying 'What am i going to do with all this stuff?" If you refer to the merchants from Canterberry, they will croak on their own, Those Albino scorpians are vicious MoFos. Glad I consoled in 3000 mini nukes a while back.

What.

I was talking about the specific kind of generic scavenger, the ones that have the merchant armor and a pack brahmin with them, and whether killing them had greater conseq/uences than just a karma penalty.

Haveing found some random scavs dead from the various enemies in here, NONE have carried anything worthwhile (mini nuke, plasma rifle or other siliiar GOOD item) to make aquiring negative karma worth it from killing them, though if you must, do the Shady Sands shuffle on them for laughs, especially if your a fan of lead pipes and .32 caliber pistols...This games like Burger King, have it your way.

Short version :
There are 3 possible scavengers with a brahmin in the game and they are exactly the same as the others. All scavengers are generic, have no script and have no influence on any other NPC inventory.
Only the dead version of the brahmin has a script to prevent access to respawning container

Then no, except the karma penalty there is no consequence

Thanks for the straight answer.
