Dungeon Siege III eGuide Essentials 10th Legion Training

Dialogue

Dialogue

Seeking out information is another important duty for all legionnaires. Many conversations give you the option to voice one or more opinions, or to ask one of several questions—wise legionnaires know to watch their tone, for words can quickly lead to actions in Ehb. Whenever you speak with anyone, try to ask as many questions as possible before ending the chat. You never know what valuable gossip a stranger might have to impart.

Party Influence

Making the right choices during certain conversations can earn you Influence with your active companion, which translates to special benefits known as Deeds. A special message is displayed during dialogue when you say something that earns you Influence with your current companion (note that Influence can only be earned with active party members). Check the Party menu to view your current Influence with your companion.

Party Deeds

Gaining Influence with companions is helpful, because you unlock special Deeds as you reach Influence milestones with each fellow legionnaire. More valuable Deeds are earned as you gain more and more Influence with a companion—each legionnaire has three unique party Deeds to offer. It’s nearly impossible to unlock every party Deed in a single playthrough, so you must decide if you wish to unlock the best Deeds for a certain comrade, or if you’d prefer a smattering of Deeds from all of your companions. See the “Cast” chapter and the appendix for a complete list of all party Deeds gained through amassing Influence with companions.

Dialogue Boxes

When an important conversation occurs during the adventure, a special box will appear in the walkthrough, just like this. If Influence can be gained during the dialogue, a “thumbs up” icon will appear next to the box’s header (as shown in this sample), and the phrase you must speak during the conversation will be surrounded by quotation marks in the box’s text, “like so.” If you’d like to keep the game’s story a surprise, simply avoid reading these dialogue boxes to skip all the plot-based spoilers.
