Difference between revisions of "Influence"

Once the type of ego battle has been started, the denizen will become fixated upon it and only ego attacks of the same type will be recognized. Further, the denizen will become resistant to an ego attack used over and over. For example, a denizen will become resistant to begging (a charity attack), so it is more beneficial to alternate with other charity attacks. Once a denizen has won or lost an ego battle, he or she will be exhausted and not enter into another one for some period of time. The power of your influence skills increases the higher the prestige of the clothing and jewelry you wear. The exception to this are the charity influence skills, which is more effective with tattered rags than fancy clothes (i.e.,  the lower the prestige of your clothing, the better you are at charity influence attacks).
