2 0 25000 ècu may sound much, but there ist a shortcut: Every time you pay a magistrate after your wanted level is too high, you can steal ist back from him.Do this three or four times and you're done.Showing both comments. In addition his guards need to be gone in order for you to steal from him. Easiest spot for me was in the guard 'base' (star layout) east of the HQ in New Orleans. On the left side there are two guards near a tent and across the street from them is the Magistrate with his guards. Once you attack the soldiers the Magistrates guards will join in; finish them off and run around maxing your notoriety. Then you can pay the bribe and then steal it back right away; then just repeat.Posted by InfiniteRefrain on 20 Oct 14 at 15:58 Sorry, but that's not true. You can steal from him right under the nose of his guards. Tried for confirmation.Posted by Basileus08 on 20 Oct 14 at 17:29
