Looking to build those trust levels faster? The story missions naturally boost your standing with the camps (this is actually how the game eases you into the trust system), but there's definitely more you can do to speed things up.

Your best approach is combining regular missions with some smart side activities - rescue survivors when you spot them tied up, they're usually pretty grateful and will boost your reputation nicely when you send them to a camp. Clearing out those ambush camps isn't just good for trust, it actually reveals more of your map and gives you new crafting options, which is pretty handy for later challenges.

Something a lot of players miss is that collecting freaker ears while you're out exploring really adds up (just remember to loot after each kill). The camps will trade these for trust, and it's basically free reputation since you'll be taking down freakers anyway. Those infestations might look intimidating at first, but burning out nest clusters is another solid way to earn trust, and you can tackle them whenever you feel ready.

Here's something interesting - lost lake is actually your best bet for early focus. The main story naturally pushes your trust level up there, and it doesn't take much extra effort to unlock their best gear. You don't actually need to max out every single camp (the fast travel system lets you access whatever vendor you need), so maybe focus on the ones with upgrades that match your playstyle. Whether that's better weapons or bike improvements, pick what matters most to your survival strategy.

The camps remember everything you do in their region, so even small contributions like sending survivors their way or clearing nearby threats will gradually build your reputation - it all counts toward those higher trust levels
