Forum:What's the real reason behind Talon Company Attacking?

I've read countless times that it only happens when you have good karma, yet I've been attacked multiple times now while having neutral karma. I just got jumped by a group of five of them near Canterbury Commons and I've been completely neutral for a couple of game days. What gives? Feneon 23:09, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

It doesn't what your current karma is. If it's ever been good, Talon'll be after you. ~ HAZMAT82 23:54, September 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * But, being neutral should cause the attacks to stop... right? Nitty 23:57, September 10, 2009 (UTC)


 * Nope. Well, at least, not according to the karma page. ~ HAZMAT82 01:19, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

This type of attack is not because your karma level, the article is wrong, Talon Mercs only goes after you if your Karma is good (and Regulators if your karma is bad), if your karma regain neutral level they stop to chase you. This is simply a patrol of them, after all, they are a faction too, right? You can encounter more patrols close to Yao Guai Tunnels and Minefield, for example (after completing the Minefield quest, instead to fast travel to Megaton, go walking until you reach the water tower, closelly to the town. Even if your karma is evil you'll encounter a Talon patrol). And you're playing in Very Hard, isn't? 5 Talons togheter only spawn in this setting. Brfritos 19:22, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

That makes sense, thanks. And I'm actually playing on normal, I think. That's why 5 at once seemed odd. Feneon 22:19, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

If You Disarm The Bomb In Megaton Mr.Burke Sends Talon After You
