Looks like it's Warsphere or bust then. Number-crunching!<br/><br/>You said the base mod to acquire one is -50 (Unique) - presumably having an actual Kroot along for the tests won't affect that. With the Nebula complete, that'll be a -6 for us. Add a Void Master/Mistress +10 bonus to starships, and we're up to 6/100. Tagan can Charm at 60/100 (assume a +2), Ben can Commerce at 93/100 (call it a +8, with the free degree of success), Arkhah can Spar for +2 or so, Cortez can Charm for 98/100 (another +6-ish), and Creeper can Psyniscience for 83/100 (+4, maybe). Total of +20 from haggles, cut it in half after NPC counter-haggles to be conservative, so we're testing against 16/100, but we can maake 11 attempts at it. Though with the entire fleet working to scan the Nebula, that's a lot of bonus Achievement points that we can dump towards the test*, so our actual odds will probably be 26-36/100 or so.<br/><br/><br/>I don't suppose having a best-quality weapon could aid me in my Spar-haggling?<br/><br/><br/>*Specifically, we'll be earning 175 points for each quadrant we scan, 400 for defeating the pirates (even if we don't catch them, we've blown up their base and their fleet), 325 for mapping a route through the center, and 325 if we can figure out their intelligence sources. That's, at minimum, 1250 points flowing in, and we only need 550 to complete the objective. 700 surplus points = +70 to allocate to whatever Acqusition tests we want. If we find their intelligence sources, another 300 points.
