Peaceful Sand People Resolution Issue (possible spoilers)

Post by XantharTheFlame »

Hi all,

I did a complete search of the forum and read all the previous posts on this particular bit, but couldn't find any information related to my specific issue, which is:

I bought HK-47 and have the sand people robes, with HK & Mission in my party we easily walked all the way through the SP territory, past the turrets and into the enclave.

After that, the first SP I see immediately attack! I don't get any chance to talk to them to even try the peaceful solution.

Any ideas?

Same thing happened to me the first time I played the game. You have to switch to the Sand People Elite clothing (or just look for the ones with numbers, not those that display nothing). You won't be attacked (including inside the base as well) when you wear those clothing.

DesR85,

Thanks for the help, but what do you mean by "look for the ones with the numbers, not the ones that don't display anything"? When I look at all of them in the inventory I can't tell the "elite" ones from the normal ones. What am I missing?

Right before you go into the dune sea, you have a major battle with sand people. Get all of their items. Then go to your equip screen and change your clothing with Sand People clothing. Then you can walk right up to 'em before they recognize you - you can walk right past the turrets and talk to the guard.

Darth,

Yes, I got that far (see my original post), but started getting attacked once inside the enclave.

But I just played it again and using DesR85's hint I figured out that when you equip the sand people's clothing, if you pick the correct set (remember there are usually 2 or more listed in the inventory) you will see an Armour Point number (for me it was 15 for example), but if you pick the wrong set you will see the Armour points as "--" ....

So that's the trick.

I'm glad you figured it out. That was what I was referring to when I wrote that post. For a moment, I thought that I didn't explain it properly. Hope you managed to get through the base without any problems. :)

Post removed, since this thread is about the problem in its first post, and nothing else. If you have a new question, first do a search to see if it hasn't already been answered. If it hasn't, start up a new thread. Don't kidnap somebody else's.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

The armor value has no effect for me. I get attacked either way. Are you sure this is the reason?

I have tried both -- and ##. Yet I get attacked. Just something to think about.
