Finally, succeeding in a Speech Challenge with a character will make future Speech Challenges with that character easier to pass, if applicable.Ĭertain Speech Challenges are not checked against your Speech skill, but against other factors. Having a weapon drawn will have a slight effect on your possibility of success. A character with a 1 in Charisma and 100 in Speech will be less effective than one with a 10 in Charisma and a similar Speech level. Charisma itself has an effect on your percentage of success. The higher it is, the better the chance of success. The percentage of success is determined by various factors.
