📋 About This Mod

I am a Smuggler and not a degenerate Pirate!

Replaces "Pirating Ships" Deception Challenge with Selling 20/40/80 Contraband.

Most fitting I think would have been Passing Ship Scanning with Contraband on board either

  • []x/y/z times

    []with X/Y/Z contraband on board (cumulative)

    But tbh..don't even know where to start to get that working...so just selling it has to do...:-/

    If anybody got any tips/tricks/hints in that direction....leave a comment.

    (or make a mod ;-) )

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This mod replaces the 'Pirating Ships' Deception Challenge with a smuggling-focused alternative, requiring players to sell 20/40/80 contraband instead. It's a small, niche tweak for Starfield players who prefer a lawful or stealthy playstyle over piracy. With 75 endorsements and recent updates, it's a community-approved quality-of-life change.

✨ Key Features

Replaces the 'Pirating Ships' Deception Challenge with a smuggling objective.
Requires selling 20/40/80 contraband to complete the challenge.
Designed for players who want to role-play as a smuggler rather than a pirate.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Niche but appreciated—75 endorsements from players who want a non-pirate alternative.
  • Simple concept: swaps a piracy objective for a smuggling one, no bloat.
  • Recently updated (January 2024), so it's likely compatible with current game versions.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects one challenge—if you're looking for broader smuggling gameplay, this won't expand it.
  • Small mod with limited reach (75 endorsements), so community feedback is thin.
  • Potential conflicts with other mods that alter Deception Challenges or smuggling mechanics.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Starfield players who hate being forced into piracy for the Deception Challenge and want a smuggling-themed alternative. Perfect for role-players who want to be a lawful-ish trader or a sneaky smuggler. Skip if you're fine with the original piracy challenge or want more substantial gameplay changes.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this replaces a challenge, make sure you have the Deception skill unlocked before installing.
  • If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid conflicts.
  • Check your load order if you have other challenge-altering mods to ensure this one takes effect.
