Pump it up! Do it! posted:Have they changed the requirements for reaching max prestige level and is there any good way to farm prestige? I am trying to form "The Kingdom of the Man and Isles" and started out as Ivar the Boneless - I am currently playing for his son and even though I have tried to max out prestige for 30 years going full August, I am still 10.000 of and my character is 65. The best prestige farm by far is to take your army raiding and use it to crush other armies. Meaning you want a quality advantage and to bring about as many troops as your target can raise to fight you (if you have way more they won't fight at all). Ideally you've stacked your army with powerful MaA for full stack wipe potential, I think the prestige gain is proportional to how many enemy soldiers you kill. Fighting in your allies' wars with the same goal will acheive the same results.

Dwesa posted:it seems most of them are just usual 'DLC too expensive' Yeah, I don't really get that complaint. 30$ has been a pretty static number for expansions. I remember buying the Warcraft 2 expansion, new, for that price in 1995. I'm happy with my purchase which is a lot more I can say about most games that came out in 2020/21.

That's no good. I've heard that watery tarts distributing swords is no basis for a government, but I'd need a historian to weigh in on that.

Just about every lord in southern Great Britain starts with one in 867, not sure about 1066. Edit: Excalibur, that is.

Yeah I feel like this is pretty easily 50% more “content” or whatever than most $20 Paradox expansions I’ve purchased. I think mostly it’s people who wanted more, I dunno, traditional CK content.

If anyone is curious, they aren't wieldable weapons--they're court artifacts with knight and prestige bonuses.

Hihohe posted:Ok ... i wanna reform the faith in Mali, how do i get 5000 piety in one lifetime? Raid heathens, and pilgrim it up. Execute any heathen captives without huge ransoms. Also make sure you have the reform discount from the Theologian Lifestyle tree, though you might already be counting that. Omnicarus posted:A large percentage of those are "I got this with the Royal Edition, but wtf this is too expensive, do not buy!!!", which is a little confusing as well.

Hihohe posted:Ok ... i wanna reform the faith in Mali, how do i get 5000 piety in one lifetime? Get the prophet trait in the religious learning tree, it will cut that in half. Being in this tree will also give you events that you can gain piety from. Go on pilgrimages every time it's off cooldown. Holy war against people with big armies, you'll get tons of piety for killing them far more than the cb cost, and then yeah even more from executions afterwards. MonsieurChoc posted:Just please tell me how to get the good Artifacts, I need them for Poland. Having a court with grandeur will attract inspired people, pay them and they'll come back with stuff. You can also steal other people's in battle and from besieging cities. The Byzantines have a boatload. I did get a legendary item but it requires being Somali faith to get more than a grandeur bonus out of.

Chalk one up for the "this is $30????" reaction Is it known if they're, like, shifting to a Civilization-style plan with 2-3 big expansions? Because that's not bad if so. If there's going to be 15 like there was in CKII, though...

Nosre posted:Chalk one up for the "this is $30????" reaction The plan for this generation of releases was explicitly to produce fewer major expansions at a higher price point, and fill the space between them with smaller DLC for "flavour" at a lower price point. Some people think these price points are still too high, I guess?

Are you, like, raiding and conquering at every possible opportunity? Do you have any other prestige gain bonuses besides the August tree? I like it thus far. It used to be you'd max both those out within five years of assuming the throne once you had multiple kingdom titles, now it seems actually noteworthy to hit them, I prefer it this way. Nosre posted:Chalk one up for the "this is $30????" reaction I think once they fix it so everyone's face stops looking like pudding it will seem worth more to me. I'm having a hard time getting past that I admit. There is A LOT of stuff that definitely makes it worth the price tag imo but it's mostly stuff that you don't "open the box" and see right away - the coat of arms designer, the new culture system, the court itself tbh these are all great. That being said I'm not terribly enamored with the artifact system, I wish they were a lot rarer and more impactful and it feels way too much like an MMO inventory system which is kind of jarring to immersion for me. Also I bought the pack thing years ago so it's like I don't even remember this cost me money. But yeah, anyone who thinks this took way too long and didn't have the bang for the buck it should have is justified in feeling that way. It's definitely not going to change anyone's mind on the game if they didn't like it before.

So the new train commanders is interesting. You build up commander skill and MaA power over time, but you lose it instantly if you assign your Marshal to any other task, rather than it decaying like I expected.

I think it might be a bit too high, I mean I had August for 30 years and tried constantly raiding ,conquering and adding prestige buffs before my Jarl died at 73. Maybe they should lower the requirement for forming the Kingdom of Mann one notch and then it would be sensible since it is quite hard to hit when you are a Duke.

Honestly I like this, because it means you actually need to make sure your Marshal is loyal instead of just palm slamming some -100 opinion dude with 28 martial and replacing him with the next best when he revolts.

I haven't really played the game since release, but I picked up Royal Court and have been having a good time. I did the Haesteinn 867 start because it was labeled "Easy" and I had already spent too much time in Ireland before, and it's been really neat. I did the viking relocation casus belli on the Umayyads, and established a little Norse kingdom centered around Cordoba and Seville. Since the Norse have the cultural tenet that lets you hybridize a culture at 20% rather than 40%, within the span of Haesteinn's lifetime I was able to create a hybrid "Alshamal" culture that is full of Arabic-speaking northmen who now wear furs and turbans and have huge braided beards at the same time. I'm looking forward to seeing all the hybridized Norse/Arabic names of the dynasty's children down the line. It's gonna take a long time to convert the area to Asatru, but I'm gonna try that route and see if I can make it work. Probably will never be able to reform the religion, though, since I don't plan on trekking back to Scandinavia to take the holy sites. I'm impressed at how easily the game puts the information you need at the forefront; it feels easier to get into just playing than most other strategy games. My only concern now is figuring out how to take and hold three duchies at once so I can try to establish my own little kingdom.

Omnicarus posted:It's really baffling why you can't move Holy Sites at all. I do recommend the mod that changes the reformation requirement from "hold 3 holy sites personally" to "have 3 holy sites controlled by members of your religion"; it's absurd that in order to reform your religion you have to destroy all your coreligionists.

Raiding is the absolute best way. As Ivar, you have Varangians, which are still one of the best MaA there is. Take your 1600-2000 MaA and go find rich places to raid. Make sure your ruler is the one leading the army, and take the Pillaging Legacy. One thing I also like doing with my raiding armies is finding coastal battles and dropping my raiders on top of them. You get tons of prestige and piety for battles, so finding armies you can drop in on (and wipe with your MaA) is a nice boost.
