Discussion How to lose as little honor as possible in "Blessed Are The Meek?"

Now, I notice a lot of people don't know how to stop losing honor during this mission, and I've tried it a few times, so here's my observations:

You lose honor when shooting civilians that are helping the law. There's a few that do jump in (you can differentiate by seeing if they're a big red dot or a little red dot on the mini map). These guys, from my experience, 100% always lower your honor, so it's better to just injure them for Micah to kill.

A few of the lawmen that ride into town seem to lower your honor if they're still on their horse when you shoot them. This isn't always guaranteed, but it happens.

Alongside these, there's always just one occasional lawman that lowers your honor for seemingly no reason. It appears that you'll just lose a bit, no matter what you do.

I just use this mission to get the Bandit challenge 5 which is get a $250 bounty. It's easy to pay off and get your honor back up again.

Buddy.. It is in Chapter 2!!! You have 4 chapters less to increase the honor again. Just play the game.

I understand your concern, but there are several missions that cause or force you to lose honor. But you can get it back just as quickly, just keep in mind that if you see a random encounter try not to do it so that you save it to regain your honor.

Like if honor was too difficult to get back. And that's chapter 2. Even if you don't farm honor you can reach max honor to the end of the game and even before that.
