Praetorian Day Jobs

I am trying to determine the Day Job badges that can be obtained by Praetorian characters that have not yet reached level 20. The Praetorian Day Job article on the wiki lists many that are obtainable only after leaving Praetoria so that does not help.

The Day Job Recruiter in Nova lists the following:

Tell me more about specific day jobs and their rewards

Ah, you want to know more about Day Jobs here in Praetoria. Fabulous!

Well, here are some specific locations and their benefits you get for 'working' there. We are a very niche market here in Praetoria, so let me give you the full list. It won't take long.

Banker: Log out in an IBP Vault and for a limited time earn an Information Bonus when completing a mission.

Fashion Designer: Log out at a Tailor to receive coupons that grant a discount to Tailor fees.

Marketeer: Log out at the Trading House and for a limited time you will be granted a device that can quickly teleport you back to it.

Pain Specialist: Your empatic nature gives you the ability to mitigate another's suffering. Log out in a Hospital and for a limited time receive an out-of-combat regeneration bonus.

Professor: Log out inside the Cultural Direction and Education Center in Imperial City and for a limited time receive a random piece of tech salvage when completing a mission.

Patroller: Your loyalty and dedication to Emperor Cole has provided you with an XP bonus when you log in.
However, I have never been able to obtain Marketeer or Fashion Designer. The Trading House doesn't flash the day job icon. The traders in Underground Imperial DO flash it, but I've logged out there and gotten no progress several times. I've never even found a spot where the Fashion Designer would be given since I'm not aware of "walk-in" costume changers.

Has anyone been able to obtain these badges in Praetoria? Are there any others not listed that you've found?

You should also be able to get Clubber, since you can get to Pocket D from Praetoria's Studio 55 even if you're below level 20.

Which also lets you get Monitor Duty, since there is a sg portal in Pocket D. And a Vault, and a Hospital, so its very efficient.

I don't know of anywhere you can get Fashion Designer or Marketeer, though I'm not a badge expert.

Theres an outdoor contact in Imperial City ("Going Rouge" explore badge) that I *think* counts for it if you log out right next to her.


Deamus the Fallen - 50 DM/EA Brute - Lib
Dragos Bahtiam - 50 Fire/Ice Blaster - Lib

Nope, you don't get day job credit for logging out next to her.

I can confirm (more or less unsurprisingly) that Praetorians under level 20 can earn all four First Ward Day Job badges.
I've got several such alts with all four badges now.

Ryver 50 Ele� Blaster [1392 Badges]

Thanks for the responses. The above were all things I did not know. For some reason, I thought you had to be 20 to even enter FW and didn't know you could get to Pocket D either so that opens up the badging potential quite a bit.

If anyone confirms or denies Mortician, let us know!

One follow up: I specifically TRIED to get Day Trader in Underground Imp as I mentioned. The icon shows, but I get no credit when I log back in. So, it sounds bugged for me, but maybe there is a specific spot I should stand. Any suggestions? Perhaps related - when I logged back in I came out of the door next to the traders (the icon still showed, but no progress listed - I was offline for over 21 days).

I have not confirmed Mortician in Imperial, but I have confirmed Mortician in First Ward.

I have also confirmed that underground triages give the icon for Caregiver/Pain, but do not award credit for them.

FYI, Badge-Hunter / VidiotMaps has added notations to each map showing what day jobs can be earned and where. These notations are not found (at least by me) on the maps the display online, but they are on all the map-pack overlay maps.

This is cool. I'll have to re-park my Praetorians back out in First Ward to pick this one up.

Made up a fleet of praetorian stalkers to test out all the day job sites I could think of, and paid more attention this time around. Zones tested: Nova Praetoria, Imperial City, Neutropolis, Underground Nova, Underground Imperial, Underground Neutropolis, First Ward, and Pocket D.

Here's what gives out badges:

Caregiver/Pain Specialist
- all hospitals EXCEPT First Ward, Mother of Mercy Hospital
- all rez tubes EXCEPT those in Underground Nova.

Banker/Thief
- all Imperial Banks of Praetoria
- all Resistance Base Storage Assistants
- all Pocket D vaults.

Professor - Imperial City, C.D.E.C.
Monitor Duty - Pocket D, Base Portal
Clubber - Pocket D, almost anywhere
Mortician - First Ward, Mercy View Cemetery
Psychologist - First Ward, Mother of Mercy Hospital
Scavenger - First Ward, almost anywhere
Survivalist - First Ward, Eltontown compound
D.U.S.T. Ranger - First Ward, D.U.S.T. compound

What's missing...
The train stations do not give out Commuter.
The precinct stations do not give out Law Enforcer.
The tailors do not give out Fashion Designer.
The markets do not give out Day Trader/Marketeer, EVEN THOUGH they show the icon.
The pocket d battle terminals do not give out Duelist.
Studio 55 does not give out Clubber.

Great work, ZekeStenzland; very thorough!

In the case of the train stations and police stations, these badges seem to be withheld because they are only Hero badges, while all the dayjob badges that can be awarded in Praetoria are common to both heroes and villains. Since none of the tailors in Praetoria have 'shops' I can also forgive the lack of Fashion Designer badge availability, just as the tailors in Pocket D and RWZ do not award it. Likewise, the Battle terminals in Pocket D have never awarded Duelist to heroes or villains, so I cannot see why they would award it to Praetorians.

The Auction House in Imperial does, IIRC, award Day Trader. Vendors have never awarded progress for that badge in any location.

Studio 55, IMO, really should award Clubber progress, but there is nothing stopping Praetorians from making one more click to enter Pocket D, so it doesn't bother me TOO much.

Neither market (Imperial or Underground Imperial) awards badge credit.

That is unfortunate and rediculous. And I guess I better go move all the Praetorians I have parked there.
