Turn your self in

[Daddy Warbucks]

I want to turn my self in to a faction for the bounty. But when i have one of my chars bring in the wanted individual I am not able to talk to the cops. Is there a way to turn one of your team members in for the bounty?

You get bounty if you just put them into the cage at police station ect but it wont work on your own chars you can only sit inside the cage so the bounty will dissapear did that with one of my starting chars that had a 20k bounty in holy nation she was in cell for 600 ingame hours (they feed you).

Dang. Disguised needs to be tweaked to allow you to talk to vendors. May be a mod idea.

a 20k bounty doesn't go away from time...ever...its a permanent bounty

It will go away if the character is in a cage for a bounty, and they THEN get enslaved (not if you just walk into a cage and get immediately enslaved).

That was the only way I was able to get that starting 20k bounty with the HN to go away. Had my character tossed into a cage...after a few hours (i got lucky), holy slavers came by and enslaved him. He promptly escaped, and when the escaped slave tag wore off a few days later, the bounty was gone.

As far as turning your own characters in for a bounty, that would be horrifically abusable. Have a character run in, loot a bunch of random stuff in front of everyone. Run away and hand the stuff to a passive nearby party member, then have that passive party member pick up the looter the and hand him over to the police to get PAID for stealing?

I was more interested in the the cats then getting the bounty dropped. Wanted to turn self in. Get paid. Escape and repeat.

Even NPCs can't have that done....A bounty is only paid out ONCE from any given faction. If I turn in Seto to the HN, i get 20k cats. If I break her out, or she breaks herself out, and I capture her again and turn her in again to HN, i get the rep, but no more cats. If I take her to UC, I can get 20k from them though, because they ALSO have a bounty of 20k on her. But after that, since she only has a bounty in HN and UC, its done....I can't get paid for turning her in to anyone anymore.

If you want to make cats from the bounty system, I might suggest picking up one or several of the many mods that add small (500-3500 cat) bounties to random criminals, or add specific NPCs with significant bounties - and many of those mods can be run concurrently without messing with each other. It'll let you use the bounty system as a better source of income.

If you're just looking to cheese huge amounts of money....Just head to the border zone waystation, train up thievery and sneak, and steal and sell the same high value goods back and forth between the skeleton merchant and the tech hunter merchant

[Daddy Warbucks]

Merchants keep on running out of money. I can make expansive swords and armor just need to travel all over creation to find enough vendors to sell them too.

My theory was to get the payout for bounty. Wait in jail till the bounty goes away. Murder guards since that seems to generate greatest bounty. Then turn self in again.

Primary I need an excuse to murder guards.

I'm very sad to see these answers, because for some reason, a reaver slave followed me, and I don't know HOW it happened, but his bounty is around 8 million cats...

I shudder to think what sort of skeletons, literally and figuratively, are in that Reaver Slave's closet. Holy moly...

I think you can do this but you have to DISMISS them from your group to turn in the bounty. So yeah recruit random person, steal lots of stuff with them, kick from group, claim bounty.

That is about as cheese as I've ever seen. Congrats?
