Is anyone able to trigger royalty text with 100 PER and 100 rep in DFU?
After digging into classic code, I can say DFU uses almost the same method to get an NPC talk reaction as in classic. The difference actually comes from a buggy behavior from classic, which only updates the NPC reaction when the player opens the talk window or changes his conversational tone, but not when he changes the kind of question he wants to ask. This makes classic gives a default +10 tone modifier to "Tell me about" kind of questions while this modifier is supposed to be available only for "Where is location" kind of questions.
DFU does not have the bug, it correctly uses question tone modifiers, therefore it uses the correct modifier value for "Tell me about", which is... 0. This is why it's so difficult to get the best NPC reaction in DFU: you need a character with a 100 Personality stat to get +20, succeed a Streetwise (for Blunt tone) or Etiquette (for Polite tone) skill check to get +10, then be very lucky to obtain 0 on a D20 dice roll! So, actually, nearly impossible.
I'll submit a PR to fix that because it's clearly an issue.
