How come that attacking Merchant Ships does not affect one's own Reputation/Karma ?


I find it absurd that, disabling and looting the Hold of a Merchant Ship without hurting the NPCs Crew does not have any effect on the player doing it....

At the very least, I think, it should hurt the character's Karma....

    Please. NO
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    They are peacefull NPC Merchants minding their own business and attacking them brings no repercussions ?

    I do not find it logical.....

    Here I thought you had to kill the NPC Merchants and scuttle the ship.  Have I been killing
    them when not needed?  And I take the karma hit as I am neutral and capture pirates also.

    Well, I would kill them anyway. They can drop cargo for one. The other is, if you don't kill them do they respawn as a fresh ship and crew quickly or does it leave just half plundered ship and crew and a longer respawn?

    You should gain fame and karma for killing gargoyle s and orcs.
