Disgaea: Hour of Darkness - Dark Congress

Outside of battle, The Dark Congress is where you will spend most of your time. You can create characters, petition for almost anything in the game, whether it is for enemies to be stronger or shops to list new or better items.

The Dark Congress is based on your Demon Rank, which starts at 0 and can be increased by taking Promotional Exams (a set of battle exams). When your Demon Rank increases, your list of submittable bills also increases. To pass a bill, you need to collect Mana, which is earned by defeating enemies. Finally, you'll need the approval of the Dark Congress, who you can bribe or force to bid your way.

The Dark Congress is one of the most important features in the game and should not be overlooked.

 

Bribing

The total amount of influence when the Congress is in Attendance is equal to the sum of all the Senator's levels. Therefore, higher level Senators should be bribed first, as their Level = the number of votes they'll give you.

 

Bribing

Attitude

Interest Pts. Attitude In Favor? Pts.
Must Have! +3-6 Love Almost Always 151+
Interested +2-4 Total Support Extremely Likely 145-150
Slightly Interested +1-2 Stronly For Very Likely 141-144
Not Very Interested -1 In Favor Of Likely 135-140
Does Not Want! -3 Leaning Yes Occasionally 131-134
Either Way 50/50 125-130
Leaning No Rarely 121-124
Against Unlikely 115-120
Strongly Against Very Unlikely 111-114
Total Opposition Extremely Unlikely 105-110
Loathe Almost Never 0-104

The point bonus from bribing Senators increases the number of affection points that Senator has, and thus changes his attitude towards you on votes.

 

Promotion Exams

In order to get more influence on votes, and thus higher level Senators to appear in the congress, you will need to take Promotion Exams. These exams raise the character's Demon Rank within the congress. A higher rank gives you more proposals to issue, as well as more influence with which to pass them.

A Promotion Exam is a single character fight against several opponents at once. If you win, your Demon Rank goes up, if you lose it's Game Over.
