The conflict had barely started when Fence began setting up anonymous outlets for buying and selling goods. Keeping incognito, he nevertheless managed to put together a well-organised smuggler network, operating all over the Norvinsk region.

How to Increase Fence Reputation (Scav Karma)

Fence works completely differently from other traders. His loyalty is set not by how much money you spend but by a reputation score called Scav karma. This score mostly rises or falls based on what you do as a Scav, and it ranges roughly from -7 to +6. The higher it climbs, the more often you can play as a Scav, the better gear you spawn with, and the higher Fence loyalty levels you unlock. The table below shows exactly how many points each action gains or loses.

Key Details

A car extract's reward halves on each reuse of the same map, so the most efficient method is to use car extracts across different maps.
Between +6.00 and +8.00 karma, penalties are applied as if you were at +6: for example, at +7 killing a player Scav (-0.10) drops you straight to +5.90. Above +8.00, an extra -2 is added on top of penalties.

Benefits of High Reputation

Shorter Scav cooldown: the default ~20 minutes drops to around 5 minutes at +6.00 karma.
Better Scav gear: as it rises you spawn with more valuable weapons and items, reaching top-tier loadouts at the top.
Higher loyalty levels: see the required values in the Loyalty Levels table below; +6.00 is the top tier (with perks like buying uninsured items).
Friendly bosses: at high enough karma, Scav bosses and their guards stop attacking you and may fight alongside you.
More extracts and cheaper car extracts: certain special Scav extracts open up and vehicle extracts get cheaper.
