traders attitude keep resetting.

Story/faction related choices have no effect on their attitude either, that might be a design choice or an oversight, but seems weird that i can save their entire community and not get a discount. Why have faction specific traders with attitude guages if they don't react to your choices?

My trader has also reset. Used one of the followers to level up attitude instead of my character. Someone on steam suggested it may be due to switching out party members. It seems to be the cause from the test I just did.

That would be correct. Vendor attitude is specific to each individual character. Prices are also effected even more strongly by charisma score than by their attitude towards you. My CHA 12 barbarian gets more or less the same prices with maxed out rep as my bard did by default when her CHA was 16. So if you play multiplayer, make the face also the shopper, and only bother to raise vendor rep on them. And even in single player, maybe make whatever character in your group has the highest charisma score your shopper.

Perhaps our posts are not clear.

I raised attitude on Gale with Aaron. I then left Gale at camp, put the other characters in my party to level them up, and then put Gale back in the party and continued questing and exploring. When I go back to the vendor, he is all "who are you?" to Gale despite previously having 100 attitude. If that's not a bug, then they should fire whoever made the decision for it to be that way on purpose. You don't suddenly forget a good friend because they took a vacation from work.

Good lord that's a pain.

I noticed also that in Act2 during / after Shar'an gauntlet event, the vendors reputation gets reset.

I may have a related problem. It's not exactly the same, but probably stems from the same bug: reputation has never worked at all for me. No matter what I've done, the reputation has always stayed at neutral with every single vendor. Not a big problem for me, per se, but it just feels odd.

Bump this up.
This is a seeeeerious Gameplay problem.
As it is now its just a hefty Goldsink when Vendors suddenly forget their bests customers.

I might be wrong, but in EA i had the impression that it worked correctly and Vendors didnt forget the Attitude you build up with certain high Charisma chracters even when switching them around in camp.

As it is now it does not really make sense to use attitude system for shopping purpose, therefore Stealing is the most effective way to get filthy rich.
It only takes away the RPG immersion, when you actually want to play an honest character and beeing forced to use your shady characters to steal and pick everything clean.

So again, bumb this up for future reference. That this needs a solution.

PS: Dark Urge players therefore have the best benefit of just not taking care of this RPG Attitude feature.
Will there even an implementation of a "Goodguy" sometimes in future. Beeing the perfect opposite of "Dark Urge".

Yea, it is. I take looting to the extreme probably. I decided to try to care less about the money we get. Hubby poked fun at me when he saw i was looting the containers loot was in as well. If it's not nailed to the ground, it's in my pocket.

I'm trying to chill on that a bit of scraping every cap out of the game I can and just use my own character for the traders despite I lose caps doing it this way.
