- No matter what faction you choose, each of them are important should be focused on
There are four factions in Star Wars Outlaws, each with its own rewards and bonuses. With the world of Outlaws being so cutthroat, you never know who you can trust. Your alliances are important but don’t forget that they can always stab you in the back at any moment. With each faction offering special bonuses, is there one that rises above the rest? Which is the best faction to side with in Star Wars Outlaws?

Which faction should you side with?
There are four factions in Star Wars Outlaws; Pyke Syndicate, Crimson Dawn, The Hutts, and the Ashiga Clan. Of these factions, we found that the Pyke Syndicate is the best to side with and focus on. This is thanks to the gear they provide. The Imperial Disguise set is extremely useful for avoiding detection during missions which comes in handy during a larger portion of the game than you might think.
The Imperial Disguise set that you get from the Pyke’s is very useful to use during multiple missions.
While we deem the Pyke Syndicate as being the best of them, each of the factions in Star Wars Outlaws is important for the story. Throughout the game, you will complete jobs that raise and lower your reputation with the different factions. You won’t ever get enough reputation to raise all of the factions to the highest possible standing. Because of this, you will want to focus on raising the reputation of two factions at the most.
If you are choosing two clans to side with, the best to go with are the Pyke’s and the Ashiga Clan as they offer the best armor sets and items when compared to the other factions.
With this in mind, we recommend you also focus on raising your reputation with the Ashiga Clan. The armor given to you by the Ashiga Clan is very useful and will protect you from blaster bolts which is great when you are caught in a gunfight. Thanks to the focus on these two factions, you will most likely not have a great reputation with the Hutt faction and the Crimson Dawn. This is okay as both of these will ultimately be less effective in the long run.
