Thread: Faction points

There is a mision from the spacestation for Naboo neutrals that grants access to the Emperors Retreat.


I picked up 500 Imperial faction points =somewhere= and I figure that must be it.


The strangest part was that the last leg of the mission was blowing away TIEs.

is there a bug or something with them right now? i dunno i never really knew what i was doing in the first place with faction points...first off do you have to choose a side before you can sell any? i got a message saying i did, so i joined the imps thinking their FP were in higher demand at the time (right now) so anyways i talked to another smuggler in-game and he said to use the /delegate (insert number of points here) while targeting your costumer...is this the way business is done with FP?

Yes, but you need to be special forces to delegate faction points.

I have a question for all you rouges out there. I have never attempted to buy or sell faction points as a smuggler. As I understand this can be a steady way to suplimnet your income. My question is, what is the going rate for selling faction points? IS there a general rule of thumb for the transaction? Although I am a smugger, a bit of a dareing dandy with the ladies, and a relitivly rougish rouge, I like to offer a good product/ service for those willing to pay. I am a smuggler but not a thief. could those of you who sell ,or buy for that matter, faction points sound off as to a resonable going rate? As I understand it, the higher rank you have the in your faction, the less it costs to give/sell to those in need. Is this the case or am I simply spending too much time in the cantina? As a Staf sargent as opposed to a Colonel what is the general pay out? hope youare all working those dark alys and back rooms, working the angles.

Well, it really doesn't matter, because as long as people are farming 100k fp in a day, you'll never make any money.

Ok. but that doesn't answear my question either? how about I pose a new one?



If at ANY TIME POST CU you were to sell faction points, WHAT would or DID you sell them for?


Just looking for a few hard and fast numbers. Ball park is fine.

I sell to old and new customers alike on Chimaera. 120cpfp to orders below 15k of faction and 110cpfp to orders above. Never had any complaints off anyone about those prices.


Make sure you have an entertainers buff if you need to buy faction off the recruiter, remember you hae to be special forces to delegate, which means find a safe area to do the transaction and you really need to be a colonel to get the most out of the customer

Nope, I dont farm 100k of faction a day...as I said in your new thread, I can earn about 5k of faction in Deep Space in a 2 hour stint in my Actis. I am sure there are quicker/better ways of doing this but thats all i do right now. Not gonna go land based if it is quicker as I enjoy space and the loot you get up there and the occasional player to dog fight with.
