Re: Mass Effect 1 - Paragon not working

Have you spent any points in the charm ability? This may be something players overlook because this wasn't necessary in the sequels.

    I suspect the previous poster did place points in charm...  I had the same issue without using an exploit...  I just killed Toombs...  my paragon option was greyed out... I have the bar filled... If the game levels with the player, having a bar filled should allow a player to follow the path they are working through...  I think I have 9 points in Charm... and I just killed the ExoGeni admin, because the paragon option was greyed out...  I've played this game like 4 times... Feros is not a late portion of the game...  A 9 in charm should have allowed a paragon choice....  I guess I will kill Wrex when that paragon option is greyed out too....

    Jeong from ExoGeni is a very hard persuasion option. According to the wiki you either need 12 points in charm (the maximum) or 10 points in intimidate.

     Regarding Wrex: The paragon and intimidate options are always available if you do his personal mission first. If you don't do his personal mission, you need 8 charm or intimidate.

    In order to be able to spend more points in charm and intimidate, your paragon / renegade values need to be high enough.
