Hi smugglers


Ok, I'm an Imperial with -5000 rebel points. I want to switch sides (loylaty pfft). How much is it going to cost me to buy 5000 rebel faction points from a smuggler?


General figure would be great.


Thanks

It cost a Smuggler 1k for 10 points from a recruiter. It's not cheap.

From a colonel rebel smuggler looking to make no profit it will cost you 427k

5000 * 1.18 (colonel transfer rate) / 138 * 10,000

It will take you a dearly long time.

Best thing to do ( if you're an elite combat class ) get in a solo group run to dant, find an improoved job market and run the 20-30k missions until you get the money.

Find a friend who is a smuggler who is not interested in profit and willing to chill for 15-20 minutes to buy you faction.

If you cannot find a friend who is a smuggler and all you get is someone who will charge you... look at spending 700k

Hey im lookin to pay a smuggler to buy faction hq for me and i was wondering how much credits wise would it cost a smuggler to get 30k fp



Just so u know what i was planning to do was get a smuggler all the credits they need to buy the fp then get them to buy the base and trade it to me.


So plz tell me the prices of the fp, and if u get any of the installations cheaper,


Thank-you Mosep (FH) Radiant pvp'er

This isn't a matter of what the smuggler pays, it's a matter of the smugglers price to you. Anyway, you're idea won't work unless you take a serious lose of FP. A smuggler can only buy up to 500 FP, these would then have to be delegated to someone else, smuggler buys more etc. Eventually you'd have to delegate back to the smuggler, gaining an additional lose. So, find a smuggler (or someone else) and buy FP off them, then buy your own base.

yes that is REALLY true, and for the price it costs for the smuggler it's 125 FP for 10k credits if you are imperial, and 138 FP for 10k if you are rebel (Cries of Alderaan bonus)
