What Dertermines Reputation Gain/Loss

[blackwolf0925]

When completing contracts what factors are use in how much reputation is gain. Besides the help guide telling us how you gain/loss reputation it does not say how much is gain or loss. I am playing a merchant for the House of Thulun to start with, so to try to get friendly with the factions I took a delivery contract from Java and my reputation went from neutral to friend(4) with one contact so I wanted to know what was the factor in that when most delivery type contracts give me usually 1,2,3+ points in reputation.

The change is between 1 and 4 points.

This roll is influenced by Security Rate of the target, Rumors and Conflicts.

Conflicts function as a multiplier (x2, x3, x4.)

That gives us a final range of 1 to 28 points of Reputation per Contract.

So, a BH with a Death Warrant taking a Kill/Capture contract during a Duel of Assassins stands to gain upwards of 30 rep?
