Some basic information

You can do a Henchman Bounty Contract once per day per character. You have a selection of six planets to pick from.
Each completed Bounty Contract will reward you with a Completed Bounty Contract, which is tradeable. Once you have 5 Completed Bounty Contracts on the same character, you can unlock Kingpin contracts.
You will be provided with a standard Investigation Probe but you can also purchase Friendly Drink or Interrogation Probe for 800 credits from the Cartel Bazaar mission terminal and various planets that are slightly more effective than the Investigation Probe.
If the Shady Characters decide to call some Armed Thugs to attack, check their corpses after to see if you can loot Underworld Information, which appear as a blue beam.

Aldalok

Nice work with that :D. There’s an exploit with the shady’s on the PTS. You worked it out yet dulfy? ( at least I think it’s an exploit)
- Dulfy
  
  No havn’t seen it yet.
  - Aldalok
    
    If you use your interrogation probe and runoff to another one out of range of the first you either get the info normally or if they agro they just stand there. Their nameplate goes red but as they just stand there you can one shot them and no armed thugs spawn. Weird thing is i’ve been doing this for days and I always get underworld information from them. I expect they’ll fix it at some point.
    - Dulfy
      
      Ah ya I have done it a couple that way. Don’t think it is really an exploit tbh, just broken game mechanics. Not like the armed guards do anything.
zeta_scorpii

Thank you very much!!
Kraden

Hmm, I can’t seem to locate the “Captured Bounty” thing to click on.
I’ve been driving around the ring checking each elevator area, but nada. :/
- Dulfy
  
  Doesn’t start until aug 14
  - Kraden
    
    that explains it. I wish I could read.
    Thanks!
Otato

Is there a difference between the capture or kill version of completing a contract?
- Dulfy
  
  No, just different achievements.
  - jagermensch
    
    And different light/dark side points, perhaps ? Or is that entirely determined by whether you use drinks or probes ?
Mumakil

So the bounty contracts aren’t bound
- Dulfy
  
  Not anymore, they changed it from the PTS
  - Mumakil
    
    good deal
Niles

Meant for comment to be under dulfy’s replay on them not being bound
- Dulfy
  
  What do you mean? You can unlock a Kingpin mission everyday with 5 characters but you are far from done. There are 8 Kingpins to unlock and tons of reputation to grind.
  - Niles
    
    Right but I mean doens’t it only 5 of the normal contracts to unlock it for an entire account or does that have to take place on all toons I planned doing everything on everytoon I have but that’s the one thing i keep forgetting is how it works exactly need to re-read the info you have posted up.
    - Dulfy
      
      Unlocks are for each character, not for your legacy.
      - Niles
        
        Alright. Thank you for that clarification I had thought it unlocked for all characters once you obtained the 5 contracts. It comes down to misunderstanding the unlock of one character getting the 5. Thank you for clearing that up. Glad I was going to do this with each of my 13 characters.
Grizzly907

I can’t even talk to the guy on Ord Mantell. WTH?
Kalzeth

Guide was extremely useful as always. There were a few bounties on planets that didn’t have locations. Will try and leave comments on location when I find them. One of the Pub Tatooine ones is on the bridge between Salara and Outlaw’s Den but I can’t remember which one 🙂 I think Novane.
Valaryc

I’m just writing to say thank you more or less Dulfy for these guides. They are a huge help and im directing other players to view the guides. Thanks for the help Dulfy! Much respect 🙂
- Dulfy
  
  You are very welcome 🙂
Raythar

Dulfy I think you should put a caution on those using the interrogation droid. When the shady characters aggro, they are not tagged to you despite aggroing you. I’ve stolen at least 3 people’s shadies in this method and looted them for info. I think people should know they must stay to tag them.
Marita

Dulfy, have you found a correlation between your Contact and the Target? I’m starting to see one myself; plus exiting the Contact conversation and restarting it re-randomizes the Contact.
- Dulfy
  
  Don’t think there is one. I have gotten same contact with different targets before or different contacts w/ same target.
Nic

The rewards for the Kingpin contracts being almost the same as the Henchmen contracts, wouldn’t it be more advantageous to just do the Henchmen contracts and sell the completed bounty contracts? It seems to me they should have made the rewards greater for the Kingpin contracts. Opinions?
- Dulfy
  
  Well, you get more rep if you do the Kingpin missions. There are also legacy titles and achievements. If you don’t care about any of those though, then sell them I guess 🙂
  - Nic
    
    I’ve seen people selling the completed contracts for 25-35k. That’s not worth the effort. They must be desperate for credits. I think I’ll just have fun with the Kingpins.
- Pan40k
  
  Henchmen contracts do give better reputation reward now, but
  You can do 1 Henchmen for a char per day
  If you have a time – you can plus Kingpin reward for day’s total
  Besides Kingpin contracts give 1 more fulfilled contract which you can use to get nore reward for unlocking more kingpin contracts 🙂
  when i max my reputation (gonna store reps up to champion this week) i’d like to run only kingpin contracts because of they are shorter and more chalenging for solo
  and have achievments 🙂
draconisorion

The Henchmen “boss” fights you have listed are for the DK fight (Zinda Kent) is for DK not Tatooine.
- Dulfy
  
  Huh?
  - draconisorion
    
    Disregard, I misread it.
Mike

Is Zinda Kent in hollyday? I found all the others
GLaD

I can confirm that if you reset the Bounty Contract mission, you can get a different henchman. I kept getting “Kill or Capture Zinda Kent” so I finally got frustrated and reset the mission. Ended up with Sogan Sur. Takes a while, because you have to re-interrogate all the shady ppl, but it IS possible.
Jarak Drakar

Confirmed, The Bounties are not linked to Planets they are linked to the NPC you interrogate.
If you interrogate Marco Zarik you get the Kar’wa Bounty and so on. Will get the full list up asap but you can get all 8 from any planet.

To do this all you have to do is ESC the conversation if you get the wrong NPC for the bounty you want. Happy Hunting
- Jimmy
  
  think it’s random even with the NPC, the twi’lek has given me 3 different targets. I have however, gotten nearly every bounty from just ord mantell and coruscant.
- Dulfy
  
  They are not linked to the contact NPCs and no you cannot get 8 from a single planet..
- Telanis
  
  Wrong, wrong, wrong.
Noktin

For achievement hunters I’d recommend making a note of which contact spawns which henchmen. From what I’ve seen it’s not random, so for instance Kelia Freen (smuggler type chick) will always give you T’rubba on Ord Mantell and Sogan Sur on Coruscant.
- Noktin
  
  Scratch this. Haven’t updated the page in a whole day so I didn’t see Dulfy’s comment 10 hours ago about the contact NPC links
Zadde

Can anyone confirm that Udo Ench actually spawns on hutta/Ord Mantell, Nar shadda and tatooine? i have never gotten him and i have farmed it to hell and back.
- Zadde
  
  Confirmed on Nar shadda after a farm round of atleast 50 resets. oh joy
  - Paowee
    
    how do you reset?
    - Macewindy
      
      Just like all other mission Paowee. Just hit your missionlog and reset the mission after the talk in the cantina where you got the mark. If you dont like the mark use reset and find 4 other shadies. Rinse repeat. 😛
      - Zadde
        
        What ^ said. Helps to be 2 ppl, so one hunt shadies and the other does the talking.
Telanis

Kar’wa, not Kar’ma.
Frayer

Have been grinning this since it began. Have NOT find D-3X any where. Could use a top if there is something I should be doing or a certain NPC I’m supposed to be looking for here. Thanks
- Dulfy
  
  Did you check the list of planets D3-X could spawn at? It is purely random and there is absolutely no pattern with the contact NPCs.
  - Frayer
    
    Been spamming Hutta / DK on Imp side and Ord/Coruscant on pub side. He’s the last one I need to find to complete the list… a bit frustrating 🙂
    - Frayer
      
      LOL – just found him on Coruscant… now to track him down again for achievement. Thanks Dulfy. U rock
- Pan40k
  
  Found it on DK
Lumpy

I’d recommend against walking away from a Shady Character after you use a drink or probe on them. If they turn hostile on you and you are not nearby for them to auto-attack or initiate the attack, they will just stand there. I saw someone run away from a shady character before it went hostile, I happen to run up and got attacked, so after killing it I got the underworld contact item, not the guy who did the questioning.
Revan

Ugh, i done all of the henchmen except trubba, i cant get him to spawn ANYWHERE, did nar shaddaa with 8 characters, no trubba ¬¬
GameEntity

[Nitpick]: Hey Dulfy, under “Henchmen bounty targets by location” The Henchmen’s name is Kar’wa, not Kar’ma. No biggie. 😛
Ellanor

Its absolutely silly random… tried 30+ times today (resetted quests) to get udo ensh – nothing. Just dont want to play this event again. But plenty of trubba, d3, novane, and some people dont found them!
- Xelian
  
  Can’t even find one Trubba 😛
Sarigar

Udo Ensh flat out does not spawn. I’ve seen Sogan Sur over and over and over, I’ve reset the missions several times, and I never get Udo. He’s spawned ONCE for me in both Bounty Weeks, and I killed him the first time. When I asked, no one else has seen him either. I guess Udo is taking this Bounty Week off. 😛
- Gode
  
  I killed him today and capped him today on different toons. Jedi Covenant Server.
- Sombie
  
  Oh, I had the same issue.
  Luckily, I managed to get him a second time, but that was only once.
  Now, however, I have the same issue with Sogar Sur
  - Sarigar
    
    I got him, finally, after resetting Tatooine eight times. From general chatter though it sounds like everyone has their own white whale. 🙂
    - Xaron
      
      Ouh man..I reset Alderaan 10 times.. for last one. Sogan Sur.. is the fastest way for reset on Imp side:/ but still nothing..
Jorssk

I took Dromund Kaas mission, but when I go on waypoint of Officer Manus, NPC is missing :/.
- Dulfy
  
  Event ended
John Travis

Would really help to have a grid cross referencing each planet, and which lieutenants they’re capable of spawning. It doesn’t seem that all of them can spawn at every location.

Popienna

i cant find D-3X anywhere.I am done with all(kill and take alive) except droid. :S any idea ?
- Sarigar
  
  He shows up most often on Alderaan, I’ve found. It’s partially random, so no guarantees, but if you keep resetting the mission and hitting Alderaan, you should find him sooner than later. Be careful fighting him on the bridge.
Tombstone

Are the Shady Characters more likely to attack if you use an Interrogation Probe on them rather than a Friendly Drink, or is it total RNG? It seems my Darkside guys get jumped a lot more often, but maybe I’m just imagining it.
Tomash

Hello guys, i hope this toppic isn’t closed yet 😉 I have one little problem: i have access only to 5, not 6 misson locations – i can’t pick missions on Hutta. Can You tell me why?
- Skeltis
  
  Hey! HuttaOrd Mantel daily missions are only avaible for characters below level 27.
Cisconetdude

is there really a reason to do any perticular planet anymore since all the hinchmen are all on the planet.
Luke Groundpounder

I need to make level 15’s on both sides to do Hutta/Ord. I have all the henchman achievements except for T’rubba. I’ve never even *seen* T’rubba. I seem to get Zinda Kent and D-3x often enough though.
- Dr. Mike Wendell
  
  I just got T’rubba on Nar Shadaa. Fifth visit today.
spacecat

Coruscant: beacon F-46/Sogan Sur is in the Justicar Sector, NW corner of the map (I feel quick-travel locations are a good addition to this guide, especially for Coruscant and Nar Shadaa ^^)
spacecat

Nar Shadaa: beacon G-77/Novane (republic) is in Shadow Town. Quickest to just QT shadow town.
spacecat

Nar Shadaa: beacon C-73/Aja Novare (Imperial): Upper Industrial Sector. QT Imperial Special Ops Center.
HollyCarp

Are Hutta and Ord Mantell still locked for characters above a certain level? I’d have thought with level sync, that issue would be taken care of. I can do the kingpin bounties on those planets, but not henchman. Or did they just not bother to update the event to take level sync into account? (But meanwhile, “keep on buying more CARTEL PACKS so we at EA can stroke our dicks ever more briskly!”)
Ravanel Griffon

Spent a lot of time trying to find T’rubba on Nar Shaddaa. Turns out there are 3 floors there and he’s on the top one (follow the slope up). Just in case someone else runs into trouble.
