Bargain Glitch in 1.5 [spoiler if you didn't try it out yet]

Warning: If you didn't ever try out the "Bargain" skill then this might be a spoiler, in this case read at your own risk.

Well, assuming that most folks know about the bargain glitch, I now want to know if the Honor stat has any effect on it in 1.5. This is because I'll be getting 1.5 soon (or at least I hope so) and I always considered the bargain glitch a cheat so I never use it in 1.4 and I never assign points into Bargain. The thing is, in 1.4 Honor doesn't do anything if I don't have the bargain skill - vendor prices are always the same even if I pump Honor like mad.

My question to you 1.5 players is: If you don't have the Bargain skill, does the Honor stat change vendor prices? I sure hope not so I can avoid that glitch when I play 1.5 because every little side quest increases honor in 1.5 and I don't want to play with that dreaded glitch (the only way to get rid of excessive honor points would be to die on purpose over and over, hoping that the game picks honor as stat to be reduced, and that's not what I'd like to do on every character of mine)!

got it

in 1.5 ce you still have the bargain skill and yes honor does effect the price. i found the perfect (and maybe fastest) way to get 9figure gold. you go to arindale and if your an adept then you will have an advantage. after you turn in the argalia armor you get better prices and i bought and sold divine intervention crystals and bought as many as i could in 10 crystal intervals (more as i made more profit) untill the game glitched/bugged at 1770 crystals i can buy for 1 gold and sell for almost 20 mill. i am afraid to go any higher as i have a character that has 63000 divine interventions and when you buy and sell those they cost nothing to buy or sell. i might try to buy up to 2k divine interventions to see if they still sell for gold and buy for 1 gold. i'll update after i try it out.

Yes, of course I know that the bargain glitch is still in there, but I'm actually THE anti-exploit player and therefore my characters would NEVER EVER assign points into bargain. My question was not how the bargain ch3at works, but rather whether it can be triggered by having a high honor alone (without assigning points into cheating bargain of course!). But never mind, I found out that without bargain-cheating, the honor stat doesn't do squat. So I can feel free to waste my points into honor without fear of getting the bug where items sell for more than their cost.

Actually, Honor will still make a slight difference without Bargain. The difference is definitely negligible, though.
