Ludi where is Anglican, Confucian, Sikh and Alcheringa?
nobody plays alcheringa 😂
i dont even know alcheringa
What about hellenic faith?
@@NasusCorenot in vanilla, that’s an ante bellum/extended timeline faith only
@@epicarcher999 Technically Ck2 imports are vanilla.
One reason why I prefer Orthodox over Catholic is that I'm lazy and I can't be bothered to constantly donate to the Pope, manually trigger and re-trigger all the bonuses, and roll the dice on becoming curia controller.
Orthodox bonuses are mostly nice and passive. You renew your Icon every now and again, and you're good.
Thats fair yeah
“I don’t care if the Catholics are stronger, I don’t want to give money to the Pope!”
@@Predator20357 Who are you even quoting?
@@BrassAmbassador I don’t know, Sun Tzu after watching Dan vs the World?
When i saw the tumbnail i thought: "yep, Ludi's Nose is the strongest religion in EU4".
No, it's just the most widespread.
Facts
Anglican Sikh and Confucian and that Australian one that everyone forgets about 😢
All religions are equal... except if you live in EU4
Or in the real world😂
@@cedarashmore490 Catholicism is the true faith and path to salvation. All other interpretations leads to hell.
@@ashrunzeda4099not tryna get religious but if you follow the bible you should be just “christian” not following a denomination
@@ashrunzeda4099 yes yes go kiss Baby Jesus and play with him
Gotta disagree here. The various religions of the world are very different in outlook, though they address many of the same human problems.
Ludi, you've forgotten that every church aspect in protestantism gives you some bonus for 10 years for ex that AE one gives you 10% WC vs other religions for 10 years
That's one of the reasons why Protestantism sucks, it's incredibly annoying to use the mechanics and it feels essentially half baked, even if you can make some really powerful benefit combos. I mean, I have friends that have played Protestant multiple times before that literally didn't even know about the 10 year church aspect bonuses, and the game doesn't inform you when the bonuses expire so you don't know when to re-up them, and getting rid of a church aspect just to add the exact same aspect back is a terribly designed mechanic in and of itself anyway. Either the bonuses shouldn't be temporary, or their activation should be substantially different and church power should function differently.
@@brofist1959 Oh no, I'm not defending protestantism, it is indeed pretty annoying. I just wanted to add this information that ludi missed
Ludi, there is temporary effects for Protestant aspects. For example, if you take -5% AE, you also get -10% War score cost vs. other religions for first 10 years. or if you get -5% dev cost, you also get -10% Construction cost for 10 years. And to reset counter, you just take that aspect again.
Its 3 religions didnt mention Confucion, Sikh and Anglican.
Playing an England campaign rn and Anglicanism is crazy overpowered. Far better than reformed for sure, and is honestly the most powerful reformation religion.
Khmer can be played with either Theravada or Hindu. That's because historically the Khmer empire was Hindu and by the start of EU4 it had converted to Theravada Buddhism only recently, and the religious divisions were one of the reasons of the decline of the empire (in Buddhism, the emperor cannot be worshiped as a god, wich weakened his legitimacy). Of course in EU4 Hindu is better, but you have to convert to it and you can do so by accepting demands from Hindu rebels, wich you can do immediately because more than half of your developement is Hindu.
Confucian is great now, they get a CB for Humanist ideas so you can expand like crazy and have no rebels, they have access to fantastic monuments, the harmonization buffs are pretty good too… for anyone who hasn’t done it yet, strongly recommend playing a Ming releasable (Yan or Shun is best) into Manchu into Qing run with Mandate of Heaven and Confucianism, you’ll be amazed by how stable you can make your country while also stacking ridiculous buffs
Ludi, you're going to talk down on Inti after Quarbit introduced the world to Inti-maxxing the other day? They'll have all the missionary strength in the world with Winds of Change
Ludi help I cant stop watching the estates guide 😓😓😓
Ludi: “I didn’t mention 2 religions, which are they?”
Me: “Technically you didn’t mention 32 different religions that are part of the game. The 4 from the base game: Sikh, Anglican, Confucian and Alcheringa and the 28 from converting Ck2 -> Eu4: Bogomilist, Cathar, Freticelli, Iconoclast, Lollard, Messalian, Monophysite, Monothelite, Nestorian, Paulician, Waldensian, Druze, Hurufi, Kharijite, Yazidi, Zikri, Bön, Hellenic, Romuva, Slavic, Suomenusko, Zunist, Jainism, Karaite, Samaritan, Khurmazta, Manichean and Mazdaki.
He didn't mention "no_religion" either!
Sikh and Alcheringa are two you haven't mentioned. I have no idea about Sikh, but Alcheringa is powerful. It is a guaranteed very hard start, though. There's also ""Anglican"" for the ""bri*ish"" and Confucian, but that's more of a philosophy and also kinda represented as one in game. It can be good, but I couldn't get the harmony mechanic to work well when I played with it. I also only tried it once so there's that.
I think you've outdone yourself with the thumbnail Ludi. Belongs in the Louvre
For trade based nations Anglican is definitely the strongest, getting 1 mercantilism every year or two is so OP.
As Russia without even really intentionally doing it, I stacked like -60% construction cost and pretty good dev cost too, really helped spam out manufactories in my hundreds of provinces lol
Imho anglican is one of the strongest military religions, because it singlehandly pays off your mercenary militarization (10% discipline) and gifts you 100diplo per press as mercantilism. The anglican+merc comb is very strong for tall colony britain. You can swarm enemies with 140% discipline mercenaries and your army doesnt need to be touched once
How does that work? I don't see any Anglican mercenary bonuses.
@@TWSummary you can pay merc bonus via the ducats anglican church power sends your
That utter frustration while talking about spawning the Norse religion was real. Was wondering what you'd say after that playthrough.
The best one is totemist, you can stack discipline, moral and ae impact, or if you are weirdo tax meta. To basically 10 times if you lucky with your rulers.
I tried playing something new but I just can't do anything else than re-form Rome with either an italian state or Byzantium, Roma in aeternum.
I mean - Confucianism is a slow burn.
But with how you can get cores all over the Chinese subcontinent (as Korea or even Ryuku - I‘d say it‘s unbelievably strong. Especially if you combine it w/ Humanist ideas and the confucian-specific monuments for harmonising religions + Mandate growth, you can really kickstart a campaign pre 1500. (And harmonizing religions + Tolerance ideas is just a broken combo. I‘m actually unsure on how all the monuments currently work w/ harmonised religions, but it ought to be stupidly strong)
Love you Ludi!!! You're the BEST!!!!
Anglican and Confucian are probably theses Mythical religions he talked about
For Anglican, i would say somewere around Reformed and Protestant
Confucian im not sure, it can be pretty strong, because with its "harmonisation" mechanics its basically tengrie without the limitation to 1 religion
But it is also not that easy to get all the modifiers, but certainly top 3 i would assume
Zoroastrian is arguably the strongest religion. The zoroastrian equivalent of the "power to the clergy" government reform gives you a government mechanic that gives you +1 of whichever monarch power you want and a buff, depending on which you pick. Later on, if you have enough holy sights, you can have all 3 buffs running at once Permanently.
Alcheringa - Low tier
Confucian - Upper Middle Tier
Ludi, Hindu is one of the best religion in eu4 now. There is the best monuments in the world which can built only as hindu nation. Because of that you can have TONS of bonuses. You include monuments aspect because this changes a lot. And... in my opinion Nahuatl is quiet good. Not the best but good
Dude, FINALLY someone admitted that Reformed is actually very good (after the buff), easily one of my favourite religions now
Btw top 4 is spot on.
Yo Ludi you forgot about the crusade buff for Cathlics
For the missing alcheringa, sikh and anglican couldn't say much cus never played as them, only I know that Alcheringa has the best totem in the game that gives you flat 3 monarch point bonus in the game. For the confucian its depends with whom you play it. With everyone its top 5 behind totemist, catholics, orthodox , reformed-prot-hussite and islam, but if you take it as mugals its first by far. It will speed up your wc , to the point of being ridiculous, as say having 400% overextension and not feeling it, and I don't even mantion the bonuses you get for synchronization of religions.
anglican is the one i was waiting for as a die hard england player
No Husite mention Ludi. They're also really op
why can austria form germany without admin tech 20 but prussia don't ?
I find Anglican to be quite strong in a colonial CUSTOM nation game. Can have it from the start with some clever manipulations for a custom nation, and the bonuses are goooood. Especially for an early game start. Also... I was super curious where you ranked the others like Alcheringa and Sikh. Sikh also being a quite strong religion, especially on a custom nation. YES I KNOW, I'M A CUSTOM NATION FOOL. 😆
I like your videos!! From Japan
That is not fair ludi! I wish to know more about the other religions and wich u think is good to play as
Confucian aren't bad too. Just ability to make all Islam or all Christianity equal to true faith, even after 50 years of harmonisation is very useful. You just don't need any missionary at all.
Modifiers from harmonization aren't as good as from top 3. But still it is much better than Shinto for comparasion.
Do you still consider the Aztec Inca Maya religions as weaker even after the buffs they are getting from Winds of Change?
Hi Ludi. It has nothing to do with religions and EU 4 but you should check out the game memoriapolis, you have to build a city accross time periods. I swear they didn’t give me their wallets to do this message.
Both Sikh and Confucian I find to be very strong. The latter lets you basically ignore religion/missionaries while the former has access to quick army professionalism.
It was worth to do a tier list.
Javanese Hindu nations also get the Buddha as a deity which gives advisor cost reduction and tolerance of heathens I believe. :)
Catholic is super good if you are the only Catholic country, so many concurrent bonuses, Crusade on anyone you want, it's pretty good.
I think Ludi had some special deal with the Pope to ensure Catholicism was at the top of the list
Cristian religions have other huge bonus: personal unions.
What no Jedi religion. The force limit is unlimited. You could have a monument in Tatouine in Tunisia and you could make the Tunis - Cape trade run in less than five parsecs.
I personally would say the catholic defender of faith isn't as strong as other defenders of faith, because of the fighting inside the HRE and because you aren't the only big nation with it, there is a very good chance other nations get it away from you regularly, like in my recent France run, the title got stolen from me several times by minor HRE nations even tho I had around 80 prestige
thank you for making this video
you missed the biggest part about Jewish or didn't stress enough why it is so powerful. You get extra church power PER final war win declaration which you can convert into FLAT government reform progress. No mechanic whatsoever in the game can reflect that. So this gives a special playstyle worth mentioning
Also Buddhist religions give a good amount of extra missionaries through monuments, if you ever feel for going one faith, which is quite comfortable.
Small things:
Catholizism is the only religion that can possibly give -20% construction cost (holy order + pope interaction). Slap that onto National Ideas, Infrastructure and merchant republic and you get a nice ~60 % without much effort. Can go as high as 90%, if you want to play tall.
some Fetishists get +5% discipline right away in 1444 (same as with Buddhist). While this may change and gets weaker over time, this gives a boon for smaller nations especially.
Holy Order for Muslim/Catholic can be spammed by changing religion, giving the cheapest "pseudo" deving possible
Sikh Confucian and Anglican are not even mentioned
confucisom is pretty good
To note : Coptic is christian so it enables PUs
Your forgetting the greatest one, Alcheringa
any christian religion because you can PU other christians
pu is most OP thing in this game.
any religion that makes horse strong(everbody know pinacle of army is giga JUAN)
Ludi you forgot about the crusade mechanics of catholicism.😄
saying Mayan isn't good when it has 20%CCR is ridiculous. That's the highest CCR for any religion in the game without having to use a monument. Absolutely OP for blobbing
If I didnt miss anything, the two are anglican and mayan, mayan below nahuatl, and anglican below protestant, good list btw
oh no, it was Alcheringa, you did mention mayan XD
and also, i didnt see Sikh
and Confucian
Do you know you look like Aspinall UFC fighter ?
Bro mentioned spice rich lands and almost mentioned arrakis 11:40
Anglobros: Left the chat
ludi you forgot alcheringa sikh and no_religion
maybe use eu4 wiki bevore making a video
I wonder if it's still Orthrodox after all these years
2 Religions are Anglican, Sikh, Alcheringa, Confucian + the Ck converter Schnapldorfs + The legacy religions of buddhism and Shamanism + technically no religion from some uncolonized provinces
What about austrailia?
With monuments no way is Norse on par with Hindu, imo.
confucianism and anglican?
Why is there no atheist?
DAMN, a month to get Norse?
You need to apologies for disrespecting us, the ccr worshipers
All pagan religions have option of taking mandate of heaven, so starting as fetishist and then taking mandate of heaven is hilarious.
Todays subject:
Best religion
Hussites?
Corn in Cantonese
Ludi, you know I would subscribe multiple times if I could!
I definitely did not subscribe to you on a second account
confucian is op
norse and hindus not being that different.... is not even that bad considering the proto-indoeuropean ancestry
Missing, anglican and confucianism.
Anglican same or below protestant.
Confucianism same or better than totemist, because once harmonize other eastern religions like Shinto and Buddhism, can get the bonus from the monuments.
The best religion is Zoroastrianism
Anglican letting you sit on +3 stab basically all the time is pretty nice, but hardly enough to make it the strongest religion
Anglican gives you a lot of control over your consort's stats and makes dumping a bad heir a lot less risky. Couple that with the ability to trade church power for money, reform progress, innovativeness, stability, legitimacy or colony population. That is already pretty strong. Throw in a dev discount AND a tech discount, not to mention a better version of the Catholic's moral of armies buff.
Anglican is quite poor and confusion quite good as you harmonize with most the world religions you get their monuments. Each religion gives you buff, you don't need to convert. Even if you didn't catch jewdeism and zoroastrianism it's quite good.
Yah missed a bunch of religions dude?.?
no views? 50 seconds ago? poor
We need a romanian custom religion, ludinism. Gives 1 like and subscribe per follower
ALCHERINGA BEST RELIGION
Anglican is great for a colonial Britain
Confucianism? Sinkh? Anglican? And more ... Dude you miss so many
anglican first place
Orthodoxy FTW.
Anglican is the best religion, hands down. Fight me.
I disagree about Catholicism. It's number 1 if you play as the Pope. For the rest, it's a real roulette.
The only thing i disagree is Totemists not being higher mainly because:
- Our leaders can't have negative traits, but they can have only 1, as i remember, so we benefit from bonuses we choose and leader, i.e. 2 x discipline bonus
- Thats 10 bonuses which YOU choose. Meaning there is not gonna be any "weak" bonuses
- Later you can switch to Republic and farm bonuses each 4 years if you didn't find what you needed yet
Still one of strongest relligion in my opinion :P
+ Forgot to mention bonuses from becoming a Pope (or i didn't notice that) ^^
Catholicism is the weakest, in my opinion, because it provides bonuses only in very specific situations, such as when you gain control of the papacy, which is unlikely to happen. If you are far from the Pope, you won't gain any papal influence or cardinals. You also won't be able to choose 'Defender of the Faith' because you'll have to fight the Ottomans.
Anglican > all.
poor ming.. have no faith
