Hate Coral? here's how to avoid her. (95% accuracy)

[NotaBear]

step one, create character, once in game. export character so you don't have to go through character creation again if you find Coral.

save game.

Check the ferry station of south gate station for coral, if she's not there, take the ferry to junkyard, check around Kareem's bar, she can be either north or south of Kareem (same zone)

Those are the 2 out of 5 places Coral might be, so now we have to pass time for her to move to check again. there are several easy ways to do this.

become psi caster and pass out, (doesn't matter if that's not your build, we will reload back to save later),
learning psi from a real person also passes a chunk of time, there are 3 free ones in south gate, more if your build include psi skills and pay for it.

check the previously mentioned Coral locations again after doing any of the 2 time passing event. The more time passed and Coral check re-done, the more accurate result is. if Coral still isn't around, Congratulations. now reload and play the game.

Better way: go to Underrail\data\fragments\frags and delete gc_gypsy.obj

holy nuclear option

Underrail teaches you to fight dirty and use every tactic you have available. I'm just applying that out of game as well as ingame.

The concept is great, but its execution renders her almost completely useless.

Coral is source of the worst curse in the game.

Uh, what? Isn't coral just some NPC who sells charms that have very minor effects? What am I missing?

You are missing the concept most foul — also known as one of devils names — the metagame.

Booth and her are mutually exclusive, so if she spawns you can't get a tattoo.

The obvious solution here is to make Booth useless as well.

The funny thing is, Coral isn't even useless.
Her effects just don't show up in the in-game numbers. So her main sin is that numbers don't go up.

[Hael]

There's no definitive way to know what Coral gives other than wiki entry edits.

Booth gives you a feat for his tattoos and you can measure what they do.

In theory I like Coral - in practice 70%+ of the charms could be worthless, kissing the charm could be a waste of action points, and it's all just to make Styg laugh at you.

Funny but I also deleted her from my game directory.

Booth also sells good quality leather unlike Coral and charms using up utility slot is a big minus

I personally like having something that uses up utility slots like that. Kind of a cool idea being able to use them for something other than throwables or taser. It just sucks that it's nearly impossible to work out what charms even do.

I don't need exact numbers, but it'd be nice if we could be given a rough idea of what the hell the charms do. If we can't even figure out how they're beneficial then they effectively are useless. The wiki has some of them, which were figured out through incredibly extensive testing and poking around in the game files, but that really shouldn't be necessary. And in fact, three of the charms still are unknown despite that. How are they useful? We don't know.
