Did diplomacy have npc attack you or take coin ? when you failed ?
Hello
Was reading a web site and found this info as my title say did Diplomacy failure have these consequences because I don't remember them.
Consequences of failure
The concept of failure in civic diplomacy is simple. There will be consequences.
The most simple when failing a parley is that the person you just spoke with will not want to talk to you about the same subject again until they cool off. This could take some time.
Another common aspect of failure is a loss of faction. You have a reputation to uphold. Be mindful of that.
Other consequences might include debuffs, or even being attacked, so be aware of what you are doing and know where the exits are.
Take care when engaging in civic diplomacy. You can lose both prestige and city faction when you fail a parley. People can be very harsh to those they feel have insulted them.
Learn to read the mannerisms of your parley opponents. Il they are hostile toward you then it's a good indication that they will probably attack you if you fail to convince them otherwise.
Likewise, trying to bribe a guard may result in some stiff penalties if you fail to win the parley with them.
Simple be aware that there is rarely an easy escape from a parley. It is easy to put your foot in your mooth, but much harder to remove it. Think before you engage an opponent.

Re: Did diplomacy have npc attack you or take coin ? when you failed ?
Most of the time, you took a faction hit and the NPC wouldn't let you parley with them for a few minutes.
There were some in game that would attack you if you failed, but they were usually very rare and sometimes quest related. I can't even think of a concrete example currently.
They wouldn't take money from you.
