    Can someone write down all the ways of decreasing reputation?

    1) Make some "evil" choices when doing quests; for example:
    -Tell Anomen to seek revenge; he will kill an innocent and whole party will lose 2 rep points
    -Collect the ransom when doing Tirdir's quest; same result
    2) Have Viconia join your party; party loses 2 rep points but will regain them when Viconia leaves
    3) Change into the Slayer when you have that ability; you will lose 1 rep point each time
    4) Killing random people, you will lose 4 rep points and everyone in the areaa will turn hostile; not recommendable.

    Thanks for the reply, but it seems none of this is possible since I don't have Anomen in my party, I already have Viconia (I want to decrease reputation because of her). I am already past Tirdir's quest, I am in chapter 3 now. I still can't turn into slayer and I wouldn't like everyone in the area turning hostile. Anything else??

    [​IMG] IIRC, you can Charm a commoner, then Kill him without people turning hostile? Just a thought.

    Find a non-essential shopkeeper and steal from him until he notices.

    Yes, getting caught shoplifting will decrease your rep by 2 points. You'll never be able to shop from them again though, so pick a minor fence. Also, hold person them if you don't won't to kill them afterwards.

    Nice, so if I shoplift, nobody will turn hostile, except from that shopkeeper. I am just curious, when I kill Vulova in Bodhi's second mission, my reputation does not decrease at all. How come?

    Well you lose 2 points, but IMO the best way is going to a stupid place and rob someone.

    Actually, of all the quest related assassinations that don't result in reputation loss I always found this one to be the only really logical one. The whole point of the mission was to frame the shadow thieves for the murder. If you were successful then the population at large should not be able to connect you to the murder(s).

    Of course this is applying logic to a system that penalizes you for turning into the slayer in the middle of nowhere but does not for killing people in tavern brawls. :rolleyes:
