Быстрый(начинать) guide to the contracts system in “Мемуары боевого борделя” to quickly accumulate credits, esteem, and do so with minimal trial, ошибка, or frustration.
Предисловие
Мемуары боевого борделя is right up my alley. It’s an H-game/RPG, который, в зависимости от того, как ты играешь, can have very little “ЧАС” совсем. I love a good H-game, but have a certain weakness for H-games in particular that have the quality about them to play against their content or forego/forestall said poontang hunts. There’s a wonderful narrative attached and you can solely engage with that if that’s your ball. There’s reward enough n playing a good game yeah? И, when a game is good enough, especially an H-game, that someone wonders why it even needs the erotic elements; I thoroughly enjoy that experience. Потому что, почему нет? An H-game isn’t precluded from having fantastic or immersive elements. It’s more of a boon to them to defy expectations of being simple Gallery Collection games. Так, kudos to our solodev.Think that’s it for the effusive praise. Anywho…
Хорошо, Actual Guide Now…
Contracts in MoaBB come in multiple forms. All kinds, Действительно.
We’ve got Vandalize, Взломать, Защищать, Шантажировать, Доставка, to name a few. Плюс, the Hosting and Faction specific contracts (for each of the major factions) соответственно. Сейчас, у меня нет (at the time of this guide) tested them all. I’ve played through the game twice, and am by no means an expert (it’s also my first guide), но, I know enough to get you started and getting the necessary currencies fast. И, that’s really what you want, верно?
Так, ТЛ;доктор?
Hosting contracts.
Ага, вот и все. Хорошо, не совсем, но, достаточно близко.
Видеть, that’s the big secret to the guide, right here in this first section. Hosting contracts are the fastest means of building both types of capital – both hard credits and esteem. First go through the game, I thought esteem might play into the story or lore in some way, allowing me to use my reputation (as MoonFall itself apparently holds us in “esteem”) to finagle my way out of tight situations. Сейчас, I haven’t OBSERVED anything like that myself. Not for lack of trying, но, it’s very likely that esteem works as intended and has no drastically divergent gameplay benefit; ИЛИ, it is planned for a later content update. В любом случае, esteem largely factors, dear Facilitator, into your income – то есть. Зарплата. И, it does this through your upgrades. Конкретно?
The Blood Pit.
The Blood Pit
The Blood Pit is the fight simulator. Six levels of encounters, usable free of charge (aside from the upgrade costs), and valuable early game and late to get your numerous party members leveled. I highly recommend spending some time there. Но, the main feature, as it relates to this guide, is the Level Three upgrade, который предоставляет “Esteem Revenue” – который предоставляет “pay equal to your esteem per pay period.” По сути, it converts whatever your esteem is and turns it into bonus cash every twenty-four hours (грубо). Good deal!
Сейчас, with every building upgraded to level three, you’ll pull in about… 3,250 к 4,000 кредиты, дать или взять. That’s just eyeballing my endgame save. I had about… 213 esteem by that point, так…
3,250 + 213 = 3,463 creds. Прохладный, прохладный. Not an astronomical amount, но, helpful nonetheless. That’s an extra healing item from the shop. Сейчас, I do NOT recommend, unless you’re a mad lad, that you grind out to 500 или 1000 esteem, но, feel free to ignore me. ты делаешь ты. Но, то есть, на данный момент, the primary reason to boost your esteem.
The Contracts Themselves…
Так, to bring this back around to the point. If you are the sort to min/max, in the sense that you want the maximum income for the minimal effort, Hosting contracts are the way to go. As the game itself warns, there can be unforeseen and unresolved issues/bugs on the overworld map, which is where you’ll be doing all your business. Сейчас, this easy enough to find on your own, конечно, но, привет, there weren’t any guides up when I wrote this. И, I want to be helpful.
A standard or “Общий” contract, such as vandalize or delivery will direct you to one of the major city centers on the world map, или, an NPC/interactive location on the map that has been spawned in for THAT specific contract. Так, a Blackmail General contract might give you an NPC that is described as being “near Civic.” Civic is in the north by northeast of the map. Так, if you get that contract from say… The Stormbreakers (the western edge of the map), you have quite a walk between there and Civic. Factor in that each contract relies on certain stats as well as a dice roll.
Vandalize uses Athletics, Hack uses Tech, Delivery uses Charisma, Protect uses Charisma, Intimidate uses Athletics, and the task, something like Survey or Relic? It uses knowledge, который, to my… знание, you can’t raise (на данный момент).
Faction contracts are twofers – comprising a planning and execution phase. You can use up SP or credits to add to your rolls later in the mission, the execution phase. Buy tools, разведать местность, coordinate with your allies. You can do other things like call in favors, но, I haven’t messed with that. Во время миссий, there will be random events that will test, Угадай, что? Random attributes. Но, not SO random. This largely depends on your approach taken in the planning phase. Выбор “Тревога” например, gives perception checks. Defensive and others change what is used, so play to your strengths. There’s usually an option to do a frontal assault or bumrush your objective, which leads to an immediate battle, но, you miss out on any bonuses (such as wounding enemies during Hunts).
Hosting contracts forego much of that, однако. И, are undeniably faster to complete. Like with Faction contracts, you will be tested using a dice roll. For Hosting, the necessary attribute will be random based on the events firing. Так, you will get different clients – “a blade of a woman with an entourage around the same age” или “a balding middle-aged man with muscular bodyguards.” Они есть, lorewise, spending time at your guild hall, at the behest of a major faction. The objective is to keep them satisfied and all that. Так, случайно, the lights might go out, the guest might get rowdy, what-have-you. You could get a charisma check a perception check, a technology check. It’s randomized.
Но, вот кикер, the whole reason I wrote this guide.
Once you’ve picked your faction to take a hosting contract from. Скажем так… the Iron Cartel and Dockside – a good distance from your HQ in Saint Gorfu – you do not have to walk all the way back to the Saint. Вам будет предоставлена возможность, or to immediately be teleported just outside of the city. Save yourself the trek! И, on occassion, when you’re given a mission, the preamble dialogue will tell you to go to one location; но, upon arrival you’ll find no target objective on sight – either in the form of an NPC or newly spawned building. This can even happen with deliveries. Reloading an earlier save can fix that particular bug, но, по моему опыту, когда сомневаешься… Шпиль. Ага, just walk over (or ride the train and go back into the overworld) to the Spire. Скорее всего, the event simply told you to go to “Промышленный” but meant The Spire. я отвлекся… Hosting contracts mitigate the need for this tomfoolery and searching missions for your quest objective. Once you choose to teleport to Saint Gorfu, that’s all she wrote.
Add to that, the fact that you don’t instantly start the Hosting event, but have to walk four steps to the city… Хорошо, this gives you the chance to save. Привет! Сейчас, I’m not advocating save-scumming. Но, it can be helpful if you get an event for a skill you didn’t intend or haven’t buffed, such as in the early game. Maybe you have three Charisma from character creation and built the Security office and spoke to the Athletics trainer there for a boost. That won’t help you if you get a perception check though. You might get a lucky six on a roll, но, if you get a one, and don’t have an attribute modifier to bring it up? You could fail the event and lose faction reputation. Плохой. Грустно.
Вообще говоря, for all contracts, you need at LEAST a roll of four – either flat out or with attribute scores making up the difference, to pass. The game states this. Однако, in the case of the Blackmail quest, be advised OPFOR, the bodyguards overseeing your target, will spot you and initiate combat, even on a passing score of four or five. It’s only at scores of six or above that you can complete Bodyguard scot-free of battle. В противном случае, getting a six or higher on any contract usually just leads to a better outcome. Нравиться… an extra twenty credits on a delivery job. Not really great, конечно, но, you could get nothing on a four aside from a “Работа сделана хорошо!”
Обычно, you won’t EVER make more than 1000 кредиты. And by that, Я имею в виду 900 and some change. You’ll also gain faction reputation, обычно +1, или, in the case of Faction specific quests for the Mandate, Stormbreakers, Три Луны, and Cartel, +3. The Board, the shadow council of MoonFall? They don’t seem to give faction reputation for any jobs, так, the highest you can get with them is “3” представитель (Taking the bonus in creation and completing the Mercantile Freeze), но, they’re a non-factor in terms of the stated endings in the FAQ. The Three Moons may have Faction contracts, I didn’t test them much, но, they give you jobs and, they’ll work much as I’ve outlined. If there’s any specifics that need addressing, I’ll update the guide as I play more. Максимум, I imagine they may have knowledge checks… но, как я сказал, nothing that can be done about raising that. Конечно, I’d love to stand corrected on that count.
Wrap Up and Recap
Вот и все. As the game is updated or as I play more, I’ll update the guide. Но, this is a good baseline, Я думаю. The contracts system isn’t difficult, and I could have “said less” но, I’m the type who starts explaining something I know or am interested in and just go off to the races. В любом случае, there’s the quick and dirty of it. Thassia would approve. Может быть.
My recommendation stands. Hosting is the way to go. Bing bang boom. Done in a hurry, like Zafra kicking troublemakers out of the guild hall. You can get a number of hosting contracts done speedily and get every major faction, barring The Board, к 10 репутация. Который, just so happens to be threshold at which they consider you an “Партнер” – an ally in all but name. Который, конечно, affects the ending in big and small ways. Wundebar!
Anything over ten is just icing. Поверьте мне, I tested that quite thoroughly with the Guild factions, Stormbreakers, and Old Watch. Так, you don’t NEED to push the Stormbreakers to +30 rep doing deliveries and hosting random, grizzled (молодой) ветераны. Just get it to ten, then go do the main quests.
Хорошо, I think that’s everything. Have at em’, Facilitator(с).
