Gobblecoque posted:Note that most polearms with a cutting attack function pretty much the same as the glaive, in case you find one of them earlier. The war razor, rhomphalia, and menavlion are the similar weapons that I'm aware of and they're all crazy op on horseback. I swear they removed the cut attack and the couching behavior from the fine steel menavlion. Just slowly grinding up smithing so I can make a couchable long glaive. I'm using the Bannerlord Tweaks mod and set max stamina to 400, doubles the recharge rate, and makes it recharge any time time is passing, not just when I wait in a settlement. It's now something I do during downtime back at base between campaigns against the Battanian hordes.

Enigma posted:. It's also good way to get weapon types you usually can't find, like the lances you've mentioned. Just break some looted weapons first (needs charcoal which you get from hardwood) to unlock weapon pieces. As far as selling weapons made it feels for me like I can get more money by refining mats into higher tiers and selling those.

I'm at the stage where money isn't really an issue, but if I can get better equipment then I'm all about it. I wouldn't mind a way to make armor, bows, etc.

you can mitigate the smithing stamina a bit by just using your companions to do all the base labor of making charcoal and smelting weapons until you get Curious Smelter, since those actions only award a tiny amount of XP anyway compared to big boy stuff like making iron and higher level materials.

OK so here is a question, Can you really not make the higher level steels without the perks? Are the Curious Smelter alternatives truly the better choice? So far Refining has just been making some good money on the side while I raise my smithing.

It's hard to find the highest quality steel that way, but I've never had trouble getting Steel and Fine Steel.

Captain Oblivious posted:Why, when swinging is objectively better Can't hold a shield while swinging. Couched lance (but more frequently, well timed thrusts) for main phase of battle when there's still a risk of getting bowshot during my approach, start swinging during clean up when the enemy is about to break. OwlFancier posted:Sometimes you just want to do like 600 damage to a guy by running him over with your horse. Also this. Has anyone seen the text "BROKE THROUGH" (or something like that) pop in the battle log? I had it happen one time early in the game and haven't seen it since. It was right after I ran my horse through a group of looters. bgreman fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Apr 10, 2020 |

Yes I've had that happen with a particularly fast spear poke, I think if you do enough damage it gives you a change to just break through a block. Or more likely I guess it's related to the weight or something but that would correlate with damage most of the time.

That makes so much more sense. I thought it had to do with crushing through a looter's hitbox or something.

if your damage overcomes the shield rating, the remainder goes through

and i believe attacks over a certain damage (effective speed) cannot be parry-blocked with other weapons but that might not be true

Got featured  Who knew being stuck at home without poo poo to do would make me The banner editor creator said he was working on making it more usable (multiple object selection and easier layer arrangement), so once that's live we're going to start seeing some truly badass banners and creating stuff will be easier for everyone. Right now it just takes too long to do the really elaborate stuff, the goonbanners took like 2 hours each which is just too much time to invest in dickbutt. E: new patch is out!

Anyone have issues with just constantly being at war? Like I can't really expand my kingdom because I'm constantly getting war declared on me. Having multiple fronts is impossible to manage and having 10,000 little lords running around constantly. I've literally executed I think 50? Maybe 60? Southern empire lords but they keep coming. Also every time I've convinced a Lord to join my faction and paid them the 1,000,000 gold to join me or whatever they just leave instantly. It's bullshit. Even with the tweaks mod going, and other faction cities having upwards of 500 defenders, mine never seem to get above 200. The constant war means I can't manage any of my settlements, prisoners, etc. I have thousands of prisoners scattered around various castles that I just can't deal with. I hope to God there's a l Mod that auto recruits prisoners from castle dungeons into Garrisons. It's just a loving pain in the rear end. Truthfully all I want to do is go around with MY WIFE (who won't stop making babies. Seriously phaea has had like 14 children so far) and make an army completely composed of t7? Bandit troops. Khan guards, vlandian banner knights, fian champions. That's my dream but right now I have an insane hodgepodge of 300+ units because I have zero downtime to manage them. Edit: also I have literally thousands of armors and weapons and horses but I can never sell more than like 5% before any city runs out. Tbh I should just delete it because I have like 10,000,000 gold anyway. It's pointless. Tabletops fucked around with this message at 02:48 on Apr 11, 2020 |

The lords leave if they don't like you, which they most certainly wont if you execute any other Lord's from their original faction. Far as I can tell the best strategy is to try to farm Lord's from some factions, mass execute Lord's from other factions.

I've only killed southern empire lords, it doesn't seem to matter what faction i recruit them from. it feels like a bug to me, cause dudes like Tariq will do it even though tariq has like +30 relation with me.

I don't know how to get my kingdom started. My party limit is 140, got a decent set of units so I grabbed one faraway castle that recently switched hands. Now I need a city, but after taking care of enemy parties rubbing around I get around 100 good soldiers and some randos. Nearest city of enemy faction has 280 defenders, and I got beaten badly storming it. Should I just join other kingdom as a vassal for a while?

Recruit hard, create an army in the kingdoms tab, assemble and siege.
