	'''Notoriety''' is a statistic tracked in relation to [[Crime & Punishment]] and introduced in Chapter One (3.0) of ''[[Elite Dangerous: Beyond\|ED: Beyond]]''. It is tied directly to pilots, whereas bounties are tied only to whichever ship is used to commit a crime. As a pilot commits crimes, especially murder, their Notoriety will increase. Pilots who attain high Notoriety levels will attract the attention of powerful [[Advanced Tactical Response]] units.<ref name="L1">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ocPr8DlBQs YouTube: Elite Dangerous: Beyond - Chapter One Content Livestream - Part 1]</ref>		'''Notoriety''' is a statistic tracked in relation to [[Crime & Punishment]] and introduced in Chapter One (3.0) of ''[[Elite Dangerous: Beyond\|ED: Beyond]]''.

	Notoriety is measured from 0 to 10, with pilots gaining one point for each murder they commit. {{Cite}} If a criminal pilot is defeated while one of their bounties has been detected, they will respawn at a nearby [[Detention Centre]] with no more bounties after being forced to pay off all of their accumulated bounties in addition to their ship rebuy costs.<ref name="L1" />		Notoriety is measured from 0 to 10, with pilots gaining one point for each murder they commit. {{Cite}} If a criminal pilot is defeated while one of their bounties has been detected, they will respawn at a nearby [[Detention Centre]] with no more bounties after being forced to pay off all of their accumulated bounties in addition to their ship rebuy costs.<ref name="L1" />
