Who is Bounty Hunter in Starfield?

In Starfield, a bounty hunter is a free agent who hunts down wanted criminals for a hefty price. They often operate outside the law, navigating the fringes of the galaxy and dealing with some of the most dangerous individuals in the cosmos.

Here’s a breakdown of their key aspects:

Role:

• Track down and apprehend or eliminate targets listed on bounty boards scattered across various settlements.
• Employ diverse tactics, including direct combat, stealth takedowns, negotiation, and even hacking to achieve their goals.
• May face moral dilemmas, choosing between capturing or killing a target based on their own code and the circumstances.

Skills and Equipment:

• Adept at combat, proficient in various weapon types and piloting skills to handle spacefaring dogfights and groundside skirmishes.
• Skilled in investigation and tracking, using clues and intel to locate their targets, whether hidden in bustling cities or remote outposts.
• May utilize technology like scanners, trackers, and advanced weaponry to gain an edge in their pursuits.

Factions and Motivations:

• Can work for various factions, each with their own agenda and targets. Some may prioritize bringing criminals to justice, while others focus on profit or personal vendettas.
• Driven by a mix of reasons, including the thrill of the hunt, financial gain, a sense of justice, or a personal vendetta against a specific target.

How to become a Bounty Hunter?

I chose Bounty Hunting, one of the strongest positions in the game, as my background when I first started Starfield. I use it because it improves my flying, which is something I do a lot in the game. Reddit claims that you can still play the role of Bounty Hunter despite without having to choose that background. In Starfield, there are two methods to become a bounty hunter:

• Trackers Alliance: The most common and easiest way to become a Bounty Hunter is by speaking to an agent from the faction. They can be found almost anywhere in Starfield and stick out like a sore thumb. The missions you get from the Tracker Alliance are usually easy to do and give out various payouts. 
• Missions Boards: This is another easy way to get Bounty Hunting under your belt. First, head to the Cheynenne System. If you’ve progressed enough in the story, you should be able to head there already. Once in the system, explore the area, the faction can be found on various ships, planets, and spaceports. Another spot to check out is the Hitching Post in Akila City. When you enter the city look right, the bar will be located there. These missions are more diverse and can be from taking a package to a location to dealing with a prisoner. However, they can be hard to do, but the harder missions have a higher payout. Just like all mission boards, this is a great way to farm credits and get rich quickly.

Starfield factions

The Starfield factions are:

• Constellation – joinable
• United Colonies – joinable
• Freestar Collective – joinable
• Crimson Fleet – joinable
• Ryujin Industries – joinable
• Ebbside Strikers – joinable
• XenoFresh Corporation
• Ecliptic Mercenaries
• Spacers
• House Va’ruun

It’s no surprise that factions are back in Bethesda’s latest RPG, as they’re a hallmark of its games. Nevertheless, the Starfield factions are perhaps the most interesting and complex we’ve seen in quite some time, with branding paths, interesting characters, and even better rewards. And, unlike Skyrim and Fallout 4, you’re not always swiftly promoted to faction leader.

Where to Find the Bounty Hunter Armor in Starfield?

There are many reasons to look for the Bounty Hunter armor, since it is not only a high-value item that may bring in a large amount of money if you chose to sell it, but it also offers good resistance. To find it, try these three approaches:

1. Loot

Pick up the armor from dead Spacers that is marked as Bounty Hunter, and loot fallen enemies. It will take some time to locate the spacesuit, helmet, and booster pack, but this is the simplest route. It is also the least dependable.

2. The Key

The Crimson Fleet’s headquarters, The Key, is where you may buy the armor. You must join the Crimson Fleet in order to use the facility, but thankfully we have a comprehensive guide for that as well. After entering, proceed to Zuri’s Essentials to buy the set. The only drawback to this approach is that the credits will need to be paid for. It is also necessary for you to reach a certain level before the things show up at Zuri’s store.

3. The Mantis Lair

Finding The Mantis, a side task with one of the best tales in the game, will lead you to the Bounty Hunter armor. Your task will be made easier with the aid of our Starfield guide. You’ll need to locate a slate labeled “Secret Outpost!” on a dead Spacer if you kill enough of them in order to activate it.

Conclusion

As we conclude our exploration into the realm of Starfield’s bounty hunting, it’s evident that this captivating role offers a multifaceted experience within the vastness of the cosmos. The bounty hunter in Starfield isn’t merely a character; it’s a dynamic profession that demands a combination of combat prowess, investigative skills, and strategic decision-making.

As the stars beckon, and the cosmos awaits exploration, the role of a bounty hunter in Starfield promises an epic adventure where your decisions shape not only your destiny but the fate of the universe itself. So, fellow spacefarers, may your pursuits be fruitful, your bounties plentiful, and your legend among the stars enduring. The cosmos is yours to conquer – go forth and become the legendary force that Starfield beckons you to be.
