(x-box) falling to the dark side but maintaining influence

[DarthRevane]

i really have no idea how to turn my allies to the dark side. i try over and over again but they just reject me. i dont even get very far with them in the "jedi quests", the only one i've gotten close with is bao dur and he rejected me because he is light side. help...?

As you gain influence with your companions, their alignments will come to reflect yours. There's not much of a point, though. You can still open up their more important dialogue with low influence, and they won't act differently either way.

i want them to reflect my alignment, though, ive never played tyhe game thru w/ all dark jedi. my first character only had 2 other jedi in the party (visas and kreia)

[Emperor Devon]

As I said, gaining influence will do that.

[DarthRevane]

well, here's a better question for you:

how do i keep my dark side alignment while gaining influence?

most is a loss in influence.

[Emperor Devon]

You can't directly. You can either gain LS points and influence from your LS party members and regain DS points in other instances in the game, or you can lose influence, gain DS points, and other than a change in the alignment screen, the result will be the same.

Just get influence, and your party members will be dark. You might get some LS points, but just suck it up.
