Report on Metzger Slaving Runs.
« on: November 21, 2010, 07:55:24 am »

I've recently had a decent amount of free-time and figured I'd go slave a shitload around Den. After enslaving and selling off maybe 50+ different weak ass male slaves and every time selling off a batch checking in on the jobs.

I noticed that when I finally got a job somehow, my reputation was 206, still neutral, nothing you would think is very significant, but after doing the slave run of which I figured a few screens would be interesting to people who are unfamiliar with slaving and almost 99% of the population that has never even bothered trying to be a slaver :P:






In the fourth image, (Btw I didnt figure this out till later) apparently, your only real job is to kill these little fucks that start fighting back, and just go back to metzger....  SURE, In fo2 the slavers did all the slaving themselves but you couldnt enslave people at all in that one, doesnt it make sense for slave runs to be like this:

After killing the retaliators, you knock out -hp all of the others and enslave them and just leave, dont bother healing them, since the other slavers will tote them back to metzger.

OR

You talk to one of them, demanding they surrender to slavery, you will need in general about 75-100% speech skill for more than often success in persuasion.   of course you always have the choice to just knock their asses out and hogtie em :P.  And for tribals, you can always hold the shaman hostage forcing them to surrender into slavery.  I could go on and on...

After returning to metzger and having -hp most and killed 1 of the four, he's really pissed off, and cuts my pay down to 300 caps, and -50 rep for slaves,  I asked for another job, he gave me the usual sorry cutter blah bah blah pissoff thing.

So i just start enslaving some moar!! :D, well after I enslaved even more and sold em off in their usual batch of 5 males, I asked for yet anther job as usual, and he had some new dialogue, something about the area being overharvested (By me :P) and I took a quick look at mah slaver rep again, sure enough, it was 201 reputation.


Overall, its a very nice feature, but we don't have enough information on how to get the job, do the job, or when the job is available once more after you've completed it, which causes many people to miss out on such a nice little feature for slavers, so if someone could maybe update the slavery section in the wiki on this, I would be much obliged.

RATING:  4/5

It's simple for me, sell 2 slaves to metgzer to get rep to 162, then ask for a slave run complete slave run by killing all hostiles leave, collect reward, slave 2 more for metgzer because your rep drops after doing it and wait awhile to do it again.

Ah, but how did you find out about how this works?  how to do the quest? etc?  Did you not -hp or kill al of the npcs on your first try? etc

Just saying the quest needs more descriptive instructions...

Meh i just assumed it was like FO2 and so i didn't bother to hurt those that didn't hurt me (well to have my slaves kill the soon to be slaves) and i prefer having to figure some things like this out on my own rather than just reading the wiki to find out everything, basic game info=yes how to do quests=no at least in my opinion on how the wiki should be.

I mean information on what your role in the job is and how to acquire the job.

Dialogue on how to acquire job:

"Sorry cutter, your not cut out for the big meat yet, come back when you got more of a rep to look at."

And description on doing the job:

Alright, your up I guess, just dont fuck it up.  We got a tribal camp northwest of here that has some good pickins, get up there with the other men and kill the ones who go fucking crazy.  After that just come back here, forget about the ones who didn't chuck a spear at ya, the boys will take care of them.
