When a dealer is being robbed, a robber will spawn and engage them in a fight. Your actions affect the regional Cartel influence:
This is a new type of event where the Cartel actively attempts to intercept one of your deals.
These events only happen when the Cartel is hostile.
driveByFrequency parameter.activityFrequency parameter.
Mini-quests can be obtained from select NPCs (Anna, Fiona, Dean, Mick, Jeff, Dan, Jeremy, Marco or Herbert).
Cartel Gatherings are a regional task that appear frequently and even during the early game, before the cartel becomes hostile. Their locations are picked from all unlocked regions, with new locations unlocking as you progress through the game.
You can reveal these gathering locations by bribing certain mini quest NPCs.
Gatherings include a "loot goblin" goon carrying stolen items and money if the cartel has stolen from your dealers.
Goons have varied behaviors, including random animations and voice lines, and they occasionally rotate.
If player gets nearby they will get annoyed and eventually turn hostile. If you have killed enough Cartel Dealers, the Gatherings will be hostile on sight at a range depending on the Cartel Dealer Activity value.
Player owned businesses can now be sabotaged by Cartel. For these events you will get a notification indicating which business is being sabotaged. After the notification, a goon will spawn and go plant a bomb at your business. Defuse the bomb or your current laundering operation will fail!
The frequency of Business Sabotage events is linked directly to the total cartel influence across all regions. When the cartel total influence is lower, these events become more frequent!
All end game quests scale in difficulty based on the total cartel influence across all regions. Higher total influence will result in enemies having more HP and being overall more lethal and harder to kill. XP Rewards are also scaled based on the total cartel influence to compensate for difficulty.
