Summary0014046: Bribes of Inconsistent Value
DescriptionBribes (in my opinion) are useless for Burlusts and Evucks. If 100% effictive, 100 burlust influence isn't very much and neither is 10% of one evuck council member randomly changing his stance - at least compared to 7 influence with Boarine or Skylaxian and 10% better deals with Acutian CEO's.

This could be by design, but I thought Burlusts were supposed to respond very well to bribes. I don't use any bribe items on Evucks. It just isn't worth it.

I think the burlusts should have some requirements which cost bribe items directly.

Thanks!

* The effectiveness of bribe items on evuck council members is now 3x higher, and on burlust warlords it is now 15x higher.

While the actual execution was fixed, the description before you bribe the Evuck elder still says the previous value.

My findings show the opposite: the actual execution is still flawed, and the prompt before and after you bribe the elder is still the same; the only thing that changed was an incorrect value listed next to his name on the Council page.

And I think that increasing the bribe to 30% is still too little. Changing just two elders' opinions costs 20,000 credits, and you don't even get to choose the attitude you just bribed them into. If it's going to stay random, then one bribe should probably be worth 75-100%, unless the player is meant to almost never actually use the bribe options.
