dede_frost Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 I'm on Nar Shadda, in my 20th playtrough or something, and I just talked to the Seroco thugs about a plan to beat back the exchange from the refuge sector. I tried all the options, but I just can't seem to convince them to attack, they just end up saying "That would be suicidal." and the they attack me... I was just wondering if there is any way of convincing them to attack... or perhaps this is just part of the cut content? Thanks in advance...
Hallucination Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 You just need more persuade skill/charisma.
dede_frost Posted January 28, 2006 Author Posted January 28, 2006 No, I'm pretty sure you're wrong on that one... typed in cheats to boost all my skills to 99 and my atributes to 50, and still no luck... I went to persuade them, and they still ended up atacking me. I think there are some particular tasks you have to do in order to unlock that exchange vs seroco atack, but I don't know which tasks...
Hallucination Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Really? Well I'll be a monkey's uncle. Since you used cheats, I guess you just can't do it. Tell me if you find out any tasks that let you do it.
RedHawke Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 No, I'm pretty sure you're wrong on that one... typed in cheats to boost all my skills to 99 and my atributes to 50, and still no luck... I went to persuade them, and they still ended up atacking me. I think there are some particular tasks you have to do in order to unlock that exchange vs seroco atack, but I don't know which tasks... I'm pretty sure the game has problems with some of the cheat codes, this is likely what is messing your game up, the cheats can cause many unforseen problems during play. The only exception is the giveitem cheat. Hence why I made a Mistake Correction armband that did what some of the cheats do. The in-game cheats for LS/DS points, skills and attributes don't always seem to register. You might have to restart your game and don't use any cheats other than the 'giveitem' one. Just my 2 cents.
Lantzen Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 I dont think you can get that attack, i have read it somewhere that it aint possible.
helljumper51 Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 the guide says" Being war veterans, the serroco aren't displosed to negotiate with you. kill all you find in thier territory"
The Doctor Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 The cheats aren't the problem. The only cheat code that I found caused any problems was the warp cheat. The others all worked fine. I don't think you can persuade the. I think you have to kill them, though I'm not entirely sure. Without the game installed right now, I give any mroe help...
DarthVandar205 Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 The best course of action is to kill the serraco thugs, im pretty sure you dont get dark side points for doing this so its worth it. Besides the refugees dont need these buffons breathing down their necks anymore. You get some good loot from their corpses too.
dede_frost Posted January 29, 2006 Author Posted January 29, 2006 I already killed them in all my other playtroughs, I just wanted to see the seroco attacking the exchange... But now I figure its impossible.
RedHawke Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 The cheats aren't the problem. The only cheat code that I found caused any problems was the warp cheat. The others all worked fine. There are problems with the game cheats Doc... See when you use certain cheats they don't set the same triggers that the games scripting system uses, so while you can use the "adddarkside 50" cheat to get 50 DS points, it doesn't do anything really other than change your character display as far as parts of the game are concerned, because there is also a global somewhere for your LS/DS points, this needs to be set as well. Yet when you recieve DS/LS points from scripting calls this global seems to change as well, and the game reacts accordingly. Hence why we have mods that can adjust the characters stats/skills/LS&DS points by using the in-game script commands instead of cheats. Mods like mrdefender's Wrist Console, ChAiNz.2da's HackPad, and my Mistake Correction Armband. Just FYI!
Achilles Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 I dont think you can get that attack, i have read it somewhere that it aint possible.You're correct. Every dialog option leads to a fight. IIRC, there isn't even a persuade check (even though the dialog reads "Failed").
Vibro Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 On my next play through I'll play with full charisma to see if it works but I've never been able to persuade them to attack the Exchange myself.
Achilles Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 *reads post above yours. Shakes head. Formulates response.* Good luck with that. Be sure to let us know how that works out for you.

Mods like mrdefender's Wrist Console, ChAiNz.2da's HackPad, and my Mistake Correction Armband. Just FYI! I never had problems with the allignment cheats. Mira was still making smart comments about how I looked like I had been hooked up to a power conduit or whatever. And when I used it to go Dark Side, Everyone was instantly worried about me. Atton thought that "that whitch" was getting to me, Mira was afraid of me... I don't know why it works for me, but it does. Maybe it's some mod I had installed that fixes it, but it's working for me. Sorry Doc, but this proves nothing, NPC's checks are done the old fashioned K1 ways, that's all, that's what the cheats effect, other parts of the game are done quite differently. Like the first Ravager cutscene with Nihilus sending Visas afer you... See the game progresses due to things set in the game, the cheats don't set these globals so you can screw up your game. With the amount of bugs in the game already, using cheats to edit your character is suicidal to say the least. If you have not had many problems then you are simply lucky. But this is quite off-topic at this point. -RH
Emperor Devon Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 Didn't read the whole thread before posting my reply. Probably a good idea to do that if you're looking for an answer. Upon looking at serlead.dlg, it appears that there was originally an option to get the Serroco to attack the Exchange, although the response for them to attack has been placed incorrectly.
UDM Posted February 6, 2006 Posted February 6, 2006 The serroco are rude anyway. I didn't have any regrets wiping them out
Non-false Jedi Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 thats true, but it is rather nnayoing having to deal with them rather than send them off to fight.
JediMaster12 Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 I was actually successful in getting them to back off the refugees with persuade. I don't if it helps or not but I make sure that I have force persuade and dominate mind before I leave Peragus and I make sure there is a charisma bonus of at least +1. I've never tried to get them attack the Exchange so I don't know.
PoiuyWired Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Well, I donno about you guys, but I think there is a way to persuade them to leave the refugees more room or something. Yes there is a way and I ahve done it, but I have to check what dialogue choises I used. Oh one thing, after you do it the "peaceful way" you can still trigger them attacking you py poking into the cargos, good way to kill them after completing the quest, and get some xp and items. Sort of like what you do to a Tusken storyteller after you hear the story, just open their baskets...

Yep, you can persuade them to leave the Refugees alone if your skill is high enough, but why bother if you're going to turn around and provoke them by poking around in their stuff?
Shem Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 I read the different options in the quest section with KSE, and one of the journal updates says... The leader of the Serroco Thugs agreed to attack the Exchange. Their attack was ill-fated and they have been eliminated, but the Exchange's control of this area has been weakened.
JediMaster12 Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Interesting. It must be the high persuade skill or something.
Achilles Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Interesting. It must be the high persuade skill or something.Nope, it was cut. If you look at the dialog itself, you'll see that there is no way to fire that. KSE just shows .tlk entries tied to that quest. It does not discriminate between cut content and what made it into the final game. Pretty sure this horse has already been beat to death in this thread.
