When do I have enough "persuasion"?

Post by Klorox »

How high is a high enough persuasion to get all the dialogue options?

i am trying to distribute skills in an efficient way.


BTW: I currently have a 12 in this skill, and the first Force persuade power.


TIA

Persuasion

It mostly depends on what level you are. I generally crank mine up to near max at the character creation screen, then add one or two point each level as persuasion is a highly used skill in the game. But that's just me. I've beaten both games a total of 8 times, and i'm working on the 9th completion (the 3rd for Kotor 2) with a level thirteen right now, and my persuasion is about 17-18. Its also very good to keep a high intelligence level. Around 11-14 (mine is 13 I believe) as it will give you more skill point every level you gain.

But to answer your question, just keep a generally high persuasion skill, ESPECIALLY if you are playing consular class on Kotor 2 or Scout on Kotor 1. Those two classes are essentially the most difficult classes because they are the most pacifically oriented, and try to find a verbal solution, meaning Persuasion is key. (I have always played consular or Scout classes except for one occasion, in which I played Soldier.)

Good Luck! Hope this was of some help! :)

Yarrr! Thanks Stevie!

Well, this character is a level 8 Scout/1 Guardian, and I have a 12 in the skill.

BTW, it's impossible to have a 17 in any skill at level 14. Max skill level is 3+your level (unless you're factoring in stat modifiers).

I'm not sure what you mean when you say
Those two classes are essentially the most difficult classes because they are the most pacifically oriented, and try to find a verbal solution, meaning Persuasion is key.
Doesn't the Jedi class mean more than the first one in Persuasion situations?

I would stop increasing persuade at 20. I don't believe you need more than that. Though, I don't know the minimum.
Always remember you're unique ... just like everyone else.
