Drive Away

The quickest way you can get rid of your Noteriety level is to get as far away from the offended faction as possible. Hijacked vehicles are likely less speedy than your enemies so if they start to chase after you, you would need to lose them by either sideswiping them or out-driving them.

Once you've lost the people chasing you, keep driving away as the Notoriety meter will stay up for a while. If you've been in the clear from your pursuers for a few seconds, it should start to blink and eventually it will disappear.

Drive to Saints HQ

Alternatively if are close enough to Saints HQ, you can ride you vehicle to the driveway and anyone chasing you will simply drive away!

Kill Everyone

If leaving the scene isn't an option, the best course of action is to kill all the members of the offended faction. Notoriety 1 is very manageable as there are only a few of them present.

As you kill them, make sure to keep track of each member present because once their numbers start to diminish, they will call for reinforcements. Make the most of the situation and prevent your Notoriety from going up.

Attack a Faction Member

At the early stages of the game, you will not have any territory and Santo Ileso will be crawling with members of different factions. You can gain Notoriety by going up to any of them and attacking them. Be prepared to fight as faction members aren't usually alone!

Harass Civilians

While you can get away with causing all kinds of mayhem in the city, should you harass civilians and there are cops in the area you can also get Notoriety 1. Cops are constantly roaming around Santo Ileso and can call for reinforcements and increase your Notoriety.

Drive Into Them

I you are driving a vehicle you can gain Notoriety by driving into their vehicles. Each faction has their own customized vehicles and they tend to be faster than your car.

If you plan on gaining Notoriety by bumping into your enemies, make sure your own vehicle is customized as well.

Call the Factions

After setting up the KAKTS Radio Venture, you can instigate a fight by calling any of the factions. The process is similar to calling for backup but instead of selecting your crew members on your Contacts app, choose a faction and call them out. They should arrive in a few seconds so be ready to fight!
