In my previous playthrough (on hard) I was able to recruit one of the whores from the salty mast at my stronghold after having 19 con/ 19 dex while bedding them. I tried to do the same thing on my new playthrough (on Path of the Damned) and it didn't work. I had 19 dex and 21 con. I don't know what else to say about this. I checked my stats before and after "the act" and they were still both above 19. Anyone else have this issue?

I just thought I would post pictures I took of my stats before and after trying again to trigger the event where you can mention your stronghold when talking to them. It seems like some triggered events in conversations don't properly check your attributes or perhaps they don't recognize certain buffs when they calculate them. I heard a similar issue was happening for some people with checking perception for the wailing banshee quest, though maybe it's different. I would have added this in as an edit to the previous post but I didn't see a way to do that.
