I think you're approaching the problem from the wrong angle. The public relations manager helps sell more tickets for home games and more merchandise. Only the specialty has a slight effect on the outcome of games.
as I understand pr lvl 7 NA and pr lvl 1 NA have the same effect in terms of their specialty. Their effect on merch and attendance will differ though
That was not a massive drop, that was exodus!
I still can't fully understand the role of the PR. The whole season my fans are responding with 2 under the "I am familiar with the star players, and am not afraid that they will be transferred". I have never sold a player! But then again, I only had basic (2) PR. What is your experience with PR's and their responses in the Fan Survey?
