Syndicates are the factions of Star Wars Outlaws, and your entire playthrough will be defined by the ones you help out and the ones you choose to screw over. But beyond just giving you some quests to complete, your choice of Syndicate can come with a whole host of other rewards, so it’s important to know what’s on offer.

We’ve put together this guide to explain exactly what a Syndicate is in Star Wars Outlaws, as well as going through each Syndicate to tell you what rewards and bonuses you can earn from earning a good reputation with them.

What are Syndicates in Star Wars Outlaws?

As previously mentioned, Syndicates are the game’s factions. Each one will offer certain quests, and they’ll also play a role in some of the main story quests. Performing quests for a Syndicate will increase your reputation with them, while also decreasing your reputation with other Syndicates. There are total of four Syndicates in the game. These are:

  • Pyke Syndicate
  • Crimson Dawn 
  • Hutt Cartel
  • Ashiga Clan

At higher reputation levels, you’ll start to earn rewards and bonuses. You’ll gain access to Syndicate territory, more job opportunities, exclusive stock and discounts at certain merchants, cosmetics, and even some passive buffs.

Conversely, having a bad reputation will not only lead to you not being allowed into certain areas, not having access to certain jobs, and being forced to pay more at certain merchants, but having a bad enough reputation can also be dangerous. Rack up enough bad blood with a Syndicate and their members may be ordered to attack you on sight.

Star Wars Outlaws Syndicate rewards

Each Syndicate has a set of rewards that you can earn depending on your reputation with them. Here are the rewards for each of the Syndicates:

As well as all the bonuses provided by the Imperial Disguise set individually, wearing them all together will greatly increase your ability to avoid being detected by Imperials. You’ll also lose Wanted levels much faster, but this requires you to have a Good or better reputation with the Pyke Syndicate too.

The Crimson Reign set is all about stealth, and its set bonuses reflect that.

The second of those buffs, however, will require a Good or better reputation with Crimson Dawn.
