Hey everyone! I’ve just started playing a few weeks ago and I’ve reached level 56. I usually play with pacifist mode on to avoid being ganked, but recently I’ve been flagged as WANTED for 10 caps. I’m wondering what the best way is to get rid of this status. Should I just embrace my fate as a true wastelander and accept death?

The essential move is to let someone take care of you; it’s the only way to get rid of that wanted status. Just don’t go around actively trying to get wanted – sometimes, it happens because of accidents with items like lockpicks or hacking tools.
To clear your wanted status, you’ll have to let someone kill you. A trick some players use is to strip down and hang around a train station; it usually doesn’t take long until someone shows up to take you out.
Do I lose anything if I get killed while trying to clear my status?
Good news! You can’t escape your wanted level easily. It doesn’t time out and stays even if you jump servers or take a long break. The best way is to strip naked and go to an event where you’ll more likely get taken down. Just surrender to it!
Great answer! That’s definitely an interesting strategy!
A common way to deal with a wanted level is to go to a train station. Some players even use it to lure others into PvP. Just be careful if you’re equipped with something like a lockpick; it can get risky!
Do I need to turn off pacifist mode for someone to actually kill me if I’m already wanted?
I totally get that. I once unlocked a vendor’s stuff thinking it was all good, then got hit hard. Lesson learned!
