If you can go on a killing spree in an airport mowing down civilians in a video game, ahem, COD, what is so wrong with simulating the life of a drug dealer? Well, answering this question, we now have the second addition to the Drug Dealer Simulator series! Yes, that is right! The first game received positive reviews and many major updates. But now we have Drug Dealer Simulator 2 and many virtual Walter Whites and Rick Ross are joining in to try out this new title. With a new title, there are new questions as well. For example, how do you get your rep up? Well, keep reading this guide till the end to become the most reputed dealer in town in Drug Dealer Simulator 2!
Reputation is everything when it comes to operating on the streets. Without a proper rep, it won’t matter what potent narcotics you have in stock. No one likes to buy their “Medicines” from a plug who is downright shady. Even in the game, you will need to level up your reputation to unlock more products, have access to more customers, grow your network, and, in general, be the fiend king! That being said, what are the strategies that you need to follow to level up your reputation as fast as possible? Let us take a look!
Drug Dealer Simulator 2: How to Get/Level Up Reputation Fast
Well, we have listed some strategies and tips that are sure to make your reputation rise as high as your customers.
Direct Sales
The first strategy is simple, sell! The more you sell, the more reputation you gain. But if you approach it with the strategies given below, you can maximize the reputation you can get from selling your products.
- Initial Sales: Start by making your sales. Every gram of drugs you sell directly to a customer gives you a full reputation for that region. For example, selling 5 grams of weed in the Archipelago will earn you 20 reps. A useful tip here would be to zip your products in small 1-gram bags rather than in bigger pouches. This is so that you can sell them even to customers who just want a gram of the drug of their choice.
- Potential Customers: Look out for NPCs with their hands up in the air. These are potential customers who can be converted into regular clients. Regular clients will help you increase your Rep drastically. Selling to these customers grants you 13 rep per gram, which is significantly higher than the usual 4 rep per gram.
Using Employees and Dealers
Once you have enough reps to hire employees, a whole new avenue opens up to increase your reach and, in turn, your reputation!
- Dealer’s Cabinet: Once you have employees, assign them to a dealer’s cabinet. Each dealer can efficiently manage up to 6 clients. This will make the sales go much faster without overloading the dealer.
- Distributor Setup: A distributor can manage up to four dealers, who in turn can each handle six clients. This setup can manage 24 clients in total. Every sale made by these dealers increases your rep and cartel XP. So, make sure to have distributors working for you!
Optimizing Client Assignments
Later in the game, when you have enough dealers and distributors, your job, for the most part, will be to manage and supervise the dealings.
- Avoid Overloading Dealers: Assign no more than 6 clients per dealer to maintain optimal sales speed. If you have more clients, set up another dealer cabinet and distribute the clients evenly.
- Use Distributors: Assign your dealers to distributors to scale your operations. With a few distributor setups, you will easily maximize the number of clients you can serve, thereby increasing rep faster.
Carrying Drugs for Spontaneous Sales
As a dealer, you have to stay strapped at all times. When you turn down a customer simply because you have nothing on you, the customer is likely going to be disappointed, which will hurt your rep. So, as to not send them away empty-handed, here are some tips you can follow:
- One-gram Baggies: Always carry around 25 one-gram baggies each of weed, meth, and amphetamine. This allows you to sell to potential customers you encounter on the streets, quickly increasing your rep.
- Multiple Small Transactions: Selling small quantities (1-3 grams) to potential customers gives a higher rep boost per gram. Interact with these NPCs frequently to maximize your rep gains.
Identifying Party Spots
No party is a party without some delicious lettuce, magic powders, and other candies! So, as a dealer, if you can be the supplier to these parties, you can gain a lot of reputation.
- Find Party Spots: Use the dialogue tag option in shops to ask about party spots. You will find potential customers looking for the stuff you are stocking!
- Visit Party Spots: Keep visiting these hangout spots, especially at night. There will be groups of people who want to buy drugs. A group of stoners and junkies means multiple sales in a short period, significantly boosting your rep.
Look out for the PoPo!
The only “enemies” you have to deal with are the pesky officers trying to uphold the law. But who wants that, right? So, here are some tips to always stay ahead of the police officers.
- Hidden Slots in Backpack: Use a medium backpack with hidden slots to avoid losing drugs if searched by the police. If you want to roam around loaded, you need to have this bag to carry drugs safely and make sales without the risk of confiscation.
- Stay Alert: Be cautious of police patrols to avoid getting caught. Without law enforcement around you prying their noses on your business, you can keep your drugs and continue making sales to increase your reputation.
