      No you don't get the bonus if its on a party member it has to be you. Just take the riding one. Combining the riding and scouting ones is overpowered but isn't necessary. Perks say on them party leader / captain / personal/ governor to tell you how they will effect you.

    Good guide, but you advised allocating scouting to a companion, meaning you miss an almost essential personal skill from the scouting tree "keen sight" which pairs perfectly with the personal skill from the riding tree called "mounted patrols" these 2 perks together prevent nobals and Kings from escaping when you take them prisoner, as long as they are in your party, meaning you can criple a nation fairly easily in a series of small one on one fights with each noble from an enemy faction, then keep them all prisoner, preventing them from taking up arms against you when you begin to siege their castles. What's more, once you have taken a nobles property for yourself and have them as a prisoner, if you speak to them, they are MUCH more likely to join you as a vassle

    • @KnightlyGuides-yy8xl
      @KnightlyGuides-yy8xl 7 днів тому

      Yes the combination of those two perks can help with escaping lords and I used to work to them both religiously. However after over 1500 hours in this game I have found it to be unnecessary. Mounted Patrols does a good enough job already and already sits within my character build so I don't need to waste my focus and attribute points in levelling scouting. I may mention it in the next tip video for players struggling with ending wars.

    I do like to invest in tactics because some targets just aren’t worth jumping into a full battle for. But it ends up helping in the long run when I have 100+ troops and want to hunt down other parties that have under 40 and maybe lose 1-2 units, which I can just replace anyway

    As a Warband veteran, maybe a bit out of practice, but I found trying to do arenas super early with no gear or levels, is extremely difficult, especially in Battania and Sturgia. They swing so much faster and on realistic difficulty, I can only survive 2-3 hits, sometimes one if I'm headshotted. Any tips to help me out with the arena fights? Or is this just a, git gud situation I'm dealing with? Again, I have a lot of practice with the Mount and Blade combat system, but it definitely seems like an uphill battle when facing off against lords and higher-level infantry in a 1v1.

    Dunno about some of the tips... A: at the beginning of the game, buy animals, slaugther them and sell the hides and meat back the merchant- it will give u a few thousand gold fast. Afterwards just pick up some trading goods on the way to make a few thousand more. Smithing can also make aloooot of money B: never crossed my mind to fully level scouting since it can be covered by companions. the only thing worth it would be the 225 skill to prevent prisoner lords escaping C. if u wanna go fully into combat skills vig/ctr and end makes al ot more sense to me. You can level athletics and smithing to get an additional 6 attribute points +one focus point in 1h and 2h each (reset skills at the arena). If u wanna focus on ur overall power/late game- I would go with soc: charm for the additional influence and leadership to not only increase your party size, but the size of all parties in your clan. Medicine 275+ gives your troops additional HP points - and can not be used with companions D: You can reach 330 and more in trading and Roguery with only a few points in those skills. Flesson, hero etc. made some videos about it on youtube E: smithing is also one of those skills that can get fully leveled on companions F: carry lots of different kinds of food with you for a morale boost and to level the steward skill G: get lots of horses fast so that you can carry more and travel faster over the world map

    sea raiders a quick way to deal with them is form your frontline into a shieldwall and order them to advance to enemy this will keep the raiders coming towards your frontline troops have your archers form up in a long line in loose formation on the highest point behind your advancing frontline then have any horsemen including mounted bow follow you around to one of the far left or right of the battle map and get behind the raiders then order a full rear charge the instant your frontline is in combat this will take out over 80% of the in the anvil charge but as soon as the charge is done reorder your cav to follow and fall back and then repeat by the 3rd charge most enemies will be dead the rest will be running away and be easy targets for your horsemen this also works for any other inf based army

    I've played warband for literally like a decade+ at this point. Was really late into bannerlord but I have about 150 hours at this point in time. It's not too bad, but the subtle differences throw me off a little, so now I'm here. Learned a thing or two :p

    Only recently bought this on the suggestion of a friend following a discussion about Total War. His description was ‘Total War but you battle too’ which peeked my interest. First video I saw was exactly that. Player moving to higher grounds for a better overview to formulate a strategy before storming into the battle. Before the battle had gotten underway, the game was in my cart and by the end of the battle it was in my games library Since then, it feels like every video I’ve watched has a different focus every time from battle sim to politics and diplomacy Before I jump headlong into the game, I was hoping someone could help me with a couple of Qs I have: - Do you have a lot of tactical control of battles? - Do tactics make any difference or is it ‘through in more troops to win’? - As much as I realise this isn’t a historically accurate Thank you so much in advance to everyone able to assist and thank you, Knightly, for making this vid. I usually catch the ‘Beginner Tips’ for games Again, thank you everyone even if you inlybrook the time to just read the question

      Happy to help, To answer your questions 1. Yes you have a lot of tactical control over your troops as well as formations and the makeup if that particular unit. For example you can mix shield and shock infantry into one unit or separate them out into two. 2. Tactics make all the difference. Late game once you get an idea of what the AI is going to do it becomes a little samey. 3. This is not based on any period of history as far as I am aware.

      There isn't really a "walkthrough" as such the game ends when you want it to. You may want to take out the empire or make the empire own everything or you may want to start your own kingdom and conquer the map. Its up to you how you play. I can do what an average playthrough would be like if that helps :-) or a guide to do the main campaign.

    With you mentioning the bug where you could not assign your companion to a role when calling back. The fix for this is to put your companion in a town, it can be any town you dont even have to own it, then speak to them with dialog to get them back in your party (dont choose the option "Take to party"), actually speak to them first. This seems to fix it each time it happens. Rather annoying.
