How to Shatter Stanford’s Will (Spoilers)

  1. Choose “This war will go on a long time, and they will lose.”

    This requires a Persuasion skill check of 5 and increased focus. I lost this one, as Dominate also doesn’t work here.

  2. Choose “It doesn’t matter, it is personal.”

    This is better than the intimidation option as it doesn’t cost any focus to use.

  3. Defend yourself.

    This requires a Psychology of over 4 to pass.

  4. Choose “We’ve already reigned over the world.”

    Another choice that costs no focus.

  5. Choose “Ignorant slaves have nothing to fear.”

    Must have Psychology over 4 to pass. stanford confrontation

  6. Choose “I am a predator! I hunt!”

    This finishes the confrontation and kills Stanford.
