Persuading Effie?

Anyone know the stats needed to win the persuasion contest with Effie? I tried with 35 Wits and 40 Strength, both failed. Thank you.

In a persuasion contest, the things that matter from most to least are:
Persuasion stat - The choice - the stat related to that choice.
The stat means next to nothing, the choice you pick (how well does it fit the conversation e.g. don’t try to intimidate the djin) matters a fair amount, but most importantly with good persuasion you can tell people to go jump in a river and they’ll do it.

Ahhhh, thank you. I guess I was still playing by the first game's rules.
