If you are a Privateer how does PvP work with rebs and Imps? Do you have to declare like them?

Are there different types of Privateer? I heard you can work for th Hutts, are there others?

I knwo these are dumb questions, but I just don't know.

I haven't messed with PvP in space but I think Privateers are enemies to all. I don't know about TEFs though or declaring.

There is 3 Privateer groups. The Smuggler's Alliance (working for Talon Karrde, Valarian, the Hutts, etc), the Corsecs and the Naboo Security Force. Don't know much about the second two though.

As a covert Reb, I can fly up to a Rebel space station and declare myself. The tag supposedly goes away when you land.

Has anyone tried "declaring" at a neutral outpost (other than a planet landing station?)

To add to the questions... I'd really like to know if we can /duel in space. That brings a new layer to the player bounty system (and might quiet the crickets a bit).

ok here's what i did today, cruising poi's in lok, and there were npc reb n imps doing a shootem em up circle, so i come in behind a tie, and have to use X to target under reticle....pap pap pap boom....move onto the the xwing he was shooting...pap pap pap boom...and onto next one

as a privateer, as long as its yellow dot, you can use X to target then go to town on em

side note, there's a spot where nym gunboats spawn (cast wings from the paintings) and all you do is come up behind them and shoot away...they don't turn around to shoot you....5200xp...but they spawn slow and take forever to take out....they have shield, reactor, weapons 0,1,2,3 that you can target



so inother words, neutrals can attack anything

another note, if you attack a yellow tie or xwing thats in a group, only he will attack you as a neutral, his buddies just wander around until you hit them
