Looked into the script, what the Negotiator actually does:
Default contract nego is rolling a number between 30 and 60 and adding it up on each nego round. If it is bigger than 90, you fail.
If its not >90, you roll vs d100 and the payment becomes final if you fail. (you can 100% identify this on the response text)
So if your first roll is a 30, your chance to get another pay increase is 70%.
Every pay increase is between 3 and 10%.
And now comes the NEGOTIATOR. He drops the default rolls of 30-60 down to 15-30.
So, ideal case is 6 rolls of 15 up to 90. All increasing pay by 10%
1.1^6 == x1.77 increase.
Worst case is 1.03 and you fail in the first round vs d100.
DEFAULT
3-6 => 4.5 avr annoyance per roll
1 round, 4.5
vs d100, 55% chance for 2nd round
2 round, 4.5
final at annoyance 9+
3-10 => 6.5% avr pay increase per round
so, 6.5 and 6.5*0.55~3.2% together add to a generous 10% increas when pressing nego butans, top of the line blind blackjack gameplay!1
WITH NEGO RETINUE
1.5-3 => 2.25 avr annoy per roll
1 round 2.25
77% to 2nd round
2 round 2.25
55% to 3rd round
3 round 2.25
32% to 4th round
4 round 2.25
final
So, 6.5+6.5*0.77+6.5*0.55+6.5*0.32 is about 17% increase of contract pay with the Negotiator. Measly 7% more than by default.
At 1000 per contract, thats 70 more.
3500/70==50 contracts needed to pay the Nego base price.
If you do manage 1 contract per day, than the Paymaster matches this at about 500 upkeep *0.15==75. Though at that point, your contracts are not at 1000 anymore.
1 contract per day is too juicy though, 1 per 1.5 days is more realistic and still speedy.
Lets say 300 a day upkeep, 1.5 days is 450. 450*0.15 == 67.5. Paymaster matches the Negotiator now at 300 a day.
I now wish I bought the Paymaster instead of the Negotiator first...
