ROB RUN FAQ
Straight answers to the questions ROB RUN players ask most, based on the in-game codex and Kefir's help center.
How much harder is solo mode in ROB RUN?
Solo Mode (Hard) starts you at a higher Notoriety level than duo and doubles the bonuses: +20% extra loot chance, +20% item sale and +10% cargo sale, against +10%, +10% and +5% in duo (codex images). The codex text says solo starts at Notoriety level 4, while its own screenshot shows level 3. The game warns that gangs and cops are extremely dangerous for solo players. It publishes no damage or difficulty numbers.
Do you lose your items when you die in ROB RUN?
It depends on where you are and your role. In the city, Civilians keep their bag and equipped gear, and Police Officers only lose their department-issued gear. Criminals in Looty Bay lose their inventory, but surrendering keeps your equipped gear. In the desert you always lose all your loot. In outlaw areas such as settlements you lose your equipment and bag, and in a safe zone your belongings are saved.
How do you get tattoos in ROB RUN?
Tattoos are rewards for jail time. They are only available from the Tattoo Artist in prison, on the Authority track called Trust No One. The first needs 5 jail time, the last tattoos need 700 and 800, and the legendary Silence mask sits at the top at 800.
What is jail time in ROB RUN?
Jail time, shown with the # symbol, measures your authority in the criminal world. More jail time unlocks rewards such as tattoos. Confiscated belongings add to your jail sentence.
How do you get out of prison in ROB RUN?
Use one of the escape points and pick which available state you want to escape to.
What does Outlaw mean in ROB RUN?
Outlaw means you are in an area the police do not control, such as a settlement. Anything goes, but dying there costs you your equipment and everything in your bag.
What happens when you get arrested in ROB RUN?
You keep your equipment, but the contents of your bag are confiscated. Other criminals can try to free you. Surrendering on your own also only costs you your bag.
How does Notoriety work in ROB RUN?
Criminals raise Notoriety by breaking the law. Higher levels give bigger sale bonuses at the Fence: +0% at level 1, +10% at level 2, +20% at level 3, +35% at level 4 and +50% at level 5 (codex image). Notoriety also raises your extra loot chance and cargo sale bonus.
