Guilds

[chrys_1989]

Ok so I just found the Merchant Guild and it requires 10K to join. My question is if I join them, can I join another guild? Or am I stuck with only them.

There are two guilds, Merchants' and Mercenaries' - and you can join both.

thanks for the info ;)

how do you see the guild reputation?

[traviniperv]

How do I advance in the merchant guild? I've done loads of missions for them. The guild leader never has anything to say to me. Theres almost no equipment available for purchase. Only two ships for sale and the big one is WAY out of my league.

Whats going on?

To advance the merchant guild rank, do any work that increase merchant guild reputation. Better take those mission from the guild itself. More equipment will be available in other sector that is not starter sector.

Just keep doing missions for them. Your Merchants Guild Rank will increase. You also lose ranks if you do missions against them.
Ranks in guilds unlock the purchase option on certain ships and equipment.

I also think you do not want to attack traders or intimidate them to give you cargo when hailing them. I have not tried that.

What is the maximum rank for the guilds (I've been on rank 10 with merchant for awhile now so I suspect I've hit the cap)?

If you're in the first system, there's no Mercenary station you can visit. Wait until you make it to the next system.

The merchant guild offers:
3 ships
Special Cargo Extenders (best in the game by far)
Special armor plating (reduces damage from small ships by a hefty amount)

The Mercenary guild offers:
2 ships
Special Broadside component modules (Broadside Charger, Extender, Optimizer, Accelerator)
Special armor plating (reduces damage from explosions by a hefty amount)

Both guilds offer:
Ion Turrets

I haven't made my way into the Red Devil cartel - does anyone know if they offer anything?

I know they also have 2 ships. As far as equipment I cant recall if they have anything unique to them but I think they have some stuff that is kinda hard to find. I believe they also have Ion turrets but not sure. They do have ramming deflectors. Pretty sure they sell smugglers holds.

I'd have to check but I dont think they have anything too exclusive, like the militia (apart from ships), probably to prevent limitations to people that side with either the cartel or militia. It would be kinda crummy to only be able to play with certain types of weapons/equipment because you chose one or the other. Where with the guilds they are sort of extra.

Pretty sure merchants offer ions and mercs offer antimatter probes. I don't remember seeing ions in any merc stations I visited recently.
