In the Outer Rim’s bustling underworld, making a quick credit has never been straightforward – unless you’ve discovered the intoxicating thrill of Fathier racing. Since the launch of Star Wars Outlaws, players have flocked to the holographic tracks scattered across every major city, trying to turn a modest stake into a fortune. But is it all down to luck, or can you stack the odds in your favour?
Fathier racing might look like a simple side activity, but seasoned scoundrels know it’s one of the most reliable mini-games for padding your wallet. With each race, you can scroll through the contenders, study their profiles, and place a bet. The bigger the wager, the fatter the payout – if your chosen beast crosses the finish line first. Yet the real question remains: how do you pick a winner when the outcome seems so random? The answer lies in reading the fine print.
The in-game interface presents four crucial pieces of intelligence on every Fathier:
-
Form 🐴: Look for blue or green mood indicators. Emotions like 'Focused', 'Competitive', or 'Well-Rested' are golden; if a mount is 'Struggling' or showing tired, negative vibes, give it a wide berth.
-
Race History 🏁: A consistent string of first-place finishes is the closest thing to a safe bet, provided the current form backs it up.
-
Age 🎂: Ranging from 1 to 4, younger Fathiers often have a hidden edge when their mood is right.
-
Popularity 📊: The odds displayed next to the name tell a second story. High popularity means a smaller payout, while a risky outsider could multiply your credits. It’s the classic gamble: safe money versus high reward.
Up to this point, even the most careful analysis feels like educated guesswork. But what if there were a way to eliminate the guesswork entirely? What if the race was already decided before the holographic gates even opened? Enter the infamous Fixed Races. These rigged events guarantee a predetermined winner, and they’re the best-kept secret of Mirogana’s shadow brokers. To access a Fixed Race, you’ll need to get your hands on a physical datapad containing a tip – and that means a little light trespassing.
Two syndicate strongholds in Mirogana City hold these precious data shards:
-
Crimson Dawn Vault exterior 🔴: North of the Market District, hidden behind a soup kitchen. You’ll need to navigate the landing bay and climb through a set of fans. Don’t let the spinning blades worry you – Nix can disable the console to the right, giving you a clear path.
-
Pyke Vault exterior 🟢: East of the Mirogana Market. Look for a vent in the alleyway just north of the heavily armoured guards flanking the green-lit doorway. It’s a tight squeeze, but the intel is worth it.
Remember, these datapads aren’t inside the vaults themselves – they’re scattered just outside, so you don’t need the three keycards required for the 5,000-credit jackpot and syndicate-themed Speeder skins. Sneak in, grab the datapad, and retreat before the guards toss you out on your ear. The beauty of this system is that the datapads refresh with new tips over time, allowing you to exploit the mechanic repeatedly. Even in 2026, years after release, the syndicates haven’t patched their terrible physical security.
Once you’ve got a tip, the next Fathier race terminal you visit will display a glorious orange notification in the top-right corner: Fixed Race. Take a screenshot (or rely on memory) because the tip’s clue could be anything from “the youngest competitor” to “the one who placed fourth last time”. Match that description to the correct runner, place the maximum bet, and watch the credits roll in.
So, is it dishonest to manipulate fixed races? In a galaxy ruled by criminal syndicates, perhaps the real question is: why wouldn’t you? Credits fuel everything from expert upgrades to that sleek new Trailblazer component you’ve been eyeing. And if you’re still scrounging for cash, remember that the black market in Mirogana and speeder enhancements are just a few fixed races away. The Fathier tables are open 24/7, the tips are free for the taking, and the only thing standing between you and a bulging wallet is a datapad in a restricted zone. May the odds – fixed or otherwise – be ever in your favour.
Looking for more ways to thrive on the fringes? Sharpen your skills with expert locations, upgrade your Trailblazer and Speeder, or unlock the hidden black market. Your underworld empire starts with one good tip.
As detailed in PlayStation Trophies, community-driven guides often emphasize repeatable, low-risk loops—exactly the mindset behind leveraging Fathier race “Fixed Race” tips to convert a known outcome into steady credits, then reinvesting those winnings into upgrades and progression rather than chasing volatile long-odds payouts.
