- Today we try out a bit of a bannerlord challenge run: Pacifism. Mount and Blade: Bannerlord has a variety of ways to make money, such as bannerlord caravans, bannerlord workshops and bannerlord fiefs. But to get a fief we need renown, something that is made rather tricky if we can't fight any battles. Bannerlord but we can't fight battles is Laith's challenge for today!

Laith: struggles to make money in bannerlord until he discovers smithing
*the true bannerlord experience*
I go to war made 3.9mil off equipment but once I had that much traders didn't have enough money from what I sold
Traders always run out of money if you try to sell all your war loot at once@@trashcanrus7168
are you truly a pacifist if you are selling weapons of war, lol
Laith's pained laugh as he descends into despair gives me life, like some kind of lich who drains the will to live from youtubers.
Personally you could have still hired caravan guards for yourself and not technically fight anyone the numbers usually scare off bandits
Every time laith says we wouldn’t care about some shit it’s literally the shit I’m most interested in
1:39 interesting fact: Mansa was the title, his first name was Musa.
Im not sure the last name, but he was from the Keita Dynasty so i guess that could be the family name, i dont know tho
Mansa is indeed a title and means "king of kings" so basically an emperor.
His name seems to have been Kankan Musa I.
Day one of asking Laith
Too true
God I wish!
I need your help
Yes
Burger king
"Thousands of dollars for this degree and this is what I'm using it for..."
The pained laugh during this made me very happy
This seems to be more of a "Is it possible to be a MASOCHIST in Bannerlord?" than a pacifist
23:53 and i am here watchign your videos instead of sleeping or learning for my math finals that are like in 5 hours
You should do a smithing video with the end goal to buy a castle with only things you’ve smithed. Pugios are the best thing to smelt. Also two handed only swords and certain javelins are very profitable
Nope Pugios are 2nd best tribes mans throwing daggers are best then pugio for smelting mats .
You can't buy castles.
@@EDGE234Yes you can. By maxing out Trade you can barter nobles for their fiefs
Laith's gonna be real mad when he finds out there's a setting to allow the game to remain unpaused when alt tabbed.
THERE IS!??! MY TRADER RUN LITERALLY COST ME EXTRA HOURS CAUSE OF THAT
Smithing is not only very profitable but very OP. You can make some axes that melt anything in their way, and some javelins that make enemies implode. A good skill for those weapons is needed to make them better of course but you can easily make a javelin that does hundreds of damage with each hit or an axe that can take out like 3 enemies in one hit
"Can I make an atomic bomb in Bannerlord?"
So today, Laith tried to play as a trader who marries only for cash, fuels the bandit economy and calls people's mom's hoes. So normal as always.
I was worried he invested in NFTs and dealt with shady people. And about the student loans, there is always the possibility of wheel streams...
Edit: Is it just me or did his mood improve? I'm glad if that is the case. Happy Laith best Laith ❤
Laith truly knows how to pass a fist with his boxing skills.
If it wasn't mentioned, I found cows and tools to be some of the most profitable items. Kuzait usually sells codes for really cheap, and you don't have to travel far to make a decent profit. Next advice, selling grain can be great if you wait until a settlement has been taken over and be the first to market.
"i have no enemies"
laith, 2023
Laith, for smithing, it is very effective to have a companion be your sole use for charcoal production so that you can spend your main character's stamina on just smithing weapons for greater productivity. Great video, good watch for when you too are invested in fake money production instead of worrying about your education
Laith playing Bannerlord like my mum wasn't something I thought I'd wake up to
you know w all your passion and knowledge of history. I expected you to be a history major, but tbf I'm also a history nerd, and I'm a programming dropout lol
Something important to note is that you can marry, have kids and have them run unlimited caravans unlike the companions who are limited. Loved the vid!
Mansa is a title, like king. Musa was his name which was a north African version of moses
Wish this had more views, I'd love to see you do more bannnerlord :D
Had a pacifist run where i eventually owned all of calradia. Took me about a 100 ingame hours. I loved it. But i wont lie, the "gladiator" style, or bow only was a blast, too. I just love this game i guess :D
The only way to get renown is to level up merchant to where your caravans start bringing it in. HOWEVER, you will be forced into combat once hitting 50 due to the main story quest putting you into like 3 bandit hideouts trying to save your family and collecting the dragon banner pieces.
You know... You could have simply chosen to recruit troops and never engage in combat. Of course, this would have accrued some running cost, but it also would have meant:
1: More carry capacity, meaning you could have moved across the map a lot faster.
2: That small bands of raiders and looters would not have engaged you.
It's basically what your caravans have been doing all along anyways.
Bro is on that Thorfinn grind
I think Acting as a caravan would be more fun and plausible, for the roleplay of being a pacifist you have to auto-resolve all conflicts (The idea being that Musa is just standing in the back letting all of the guards do the work) and can only hire mercenaries or units that would be in a caravan
Calradia is a war stricken land on every front and corner. As such in times like these people need good weapons, so i go out of my way to make those good weapons for lords that can afford the high quality stocks that i prepare.
Jokes aside if anyone is struggling playing Bannerlord endgame and are sick AI lords supremacy then read the following essay as i will share some valuable tips that i have learned the hardest way possible and they are life and time saver. However don't try this method for your first play through.
Also after so many playthroughs i find myself lacking the patience to run caravans, level trade to see profits and gather enough money to start workshops which isn't even good profit for the investment that i make in early game, it just takes too much time and progress will be very slow.
Besides after reaching endgame many times i have come to make every new character specialized in Social and Intelligence. Mainly to max out Medicine, Steward and Charm. These are the skills that the king needs and they make the later half of the game much more bearable/manageable and somehow smithing goes hand in hand with this approach.
Start your character as a Vlandian, the bonus renown is very good to level your clan tier quickly so that the grind will be somewhat easier.
Aim for 6 intelligence and 4 social. Do not worry about endurance, vigor and control, just add focus points to your one ranged and melee option and that alone will help you get the good perks all the way to 150 which is all you need to kill people in battles. You will be a king one day and with the crafted weapons you will be one shotting anything anyways.
Do the usual early grind with tournaments, making money. Once you have gathered good amount of denars and find your brother as he will be your master smith, pair another companion so that he can be a refiner and later smelter or a smith specialist so that him and your brother can cover all of the recipes between them. Your main character will not be involved in smithing whatsoever so that you can save your attributes for things like Steward, medicine, charm or leadership.
Now before you start leveling your smiths, join a kingdom and by doing tournaments plus your Vlandian background your clan tier must be 2 so that you can make another party. Get married both you and your brother then add another companion to make another party, lend him recruits and make him follow you, this will passively level your Steward and leadership, get the perk that gives a 30% more chance of having children in charm skill tree. Start the process in a town and viola; Not long time before you and your brother will have children that will come handy for future and now you must be able to craft high tier weapons both to sell, arm yourself and your clan.
Congratulations in the time span of first in game year now you have a character that has millions of denars, good weapons and high Steward and leadership.
Want to raise armies? No problem because Steward skill tree has perk that allows you to discard weapons which directly gives your party free experience. Make as much as needed and watch fresh 100 recruits turn into tier 6 troops within a day. Now this formula will come very handy in lengthy wars when you start your own kingdom because everyone will want a piece of you. This can only be done in a short period of time by smithing only which makes the grind bearable and losses replaceable. Watch strat gaming videos to learn how to level medicine and with the final perk "minister of health" you will have tanky tier 6 units in no time. Which will make filling garrisons easier and you will be able to afford the wages of thousands of soldiers in your fiefs because you can easily sustain your financial burdens by selling high quality two handed swords and polearms which net you 30k+ denars each.
Edit: Use five focus points to add on your ranged option for example bow. Which will cap your skill at 150+ plus which is more than enough to wield the strongest Noble bow. With good perks you will be one shotting everyone anyways despite not being specialized in bow milestone perk. The same is true about riding you will able to ride the fastest noble mounts at 150. Also you don't need attribute points to be spend in vigor because 150 is all you need honestly for a good king character. Sure you won't be a god of war on the field but great soldiers don't make good kings, you will need huge commitments to be a god like fighter which will lock you from social and intelligence skill trees.
The Aserai King: "How are there bandits as wealthy as me?!"
Laith: *Innocently whistles*
I saw the title and thought it was a CallMeKevin video at first 😂😂
when he said "i've got an exam coming up" i felt that 😢
"First lesson in business, give us your money." you use that education for this and your first batch of products purchased equaled 666.
really love the Bannerlord content, hope to see more
Smithing is still my prefered way for printing money(55k polearm) and then use the lil caravan sell trick to get high trade skill gotta love a win-win sittuation
"Today we are playing bannerlord as a caravaneer bcuz i met this professor and i want to impress her"
Crazy how adding labor value to the commodities makes more money
us business majors out here helping the retention stat 😂
Laith reflecting on his many degrees hits close to home. On the bright side, he finally got to use his business degree for this video
Its ok to have guards as a pacifist merchants. They are there to protect you and having a contingent of guards will repel bandits.
Cool thing I found out. If you gift a family member, bother or spouse, they will trade goods for you after starting a party with them. They don't have the town gold limit either. Like I crafted like 60 million in two-handed swords and gifted them to my family members and made money a none issue. Plus, it skyrockets their trade tree. Zero to near max depending on the point allocation. Makes caravans pointless too. You make so much more and quicker too. Just don't let the party do battle, sucks to lose the loot!
A pacifist would hire troops to scare bandits and probably also horses
If you had hired troops then the petty bandits wouldn't bother you.
The troops would have also allowed you to carry more. Win-win.
I think hiring troops is one of the best things for pacifist run cuz all the looters sea raiders and others are not gonna go for you whenever they see you
"Can't I read some books or learn some languages, I'm not very good at this fighting thing"
Banner Kings: *Noooow this looks like a job for me*
Hey, Laith, have you heard about the mod Anno Domini 1259? I think making a video about it would be an interesting idea, maybe fighting as an English solider campaign but that would require the mod "serve as a soldier".
Probably something I would do
Mansa Musa's first name is actually Musa. Mansa was his title, which is basically king.
For anyone wanting to do this and not move at speed 1 buy a mule or 2 to increase carrying capacity.
Smithing is the most broken money method two handed swords are the way for money i started from 1400 and in 4 hours i started gaining 70k everytime i go in the smithy there is a drastic difference in the money you get from two handed swords vs anything else
Tips to make your life easier: starting of pickaxes and hatchets give good crude iron or of course you can just by iron ore
For hardwood a great place is battania there's a lot of villages that sell hardwood for 9 or 7 a piece it'll cost you barely any money
If you are not in battania you can buy wooden hammers or blacksmith hammers they both give wood upon smelting which will ultimately resault in getting more charcoal
For the most money in the beginning of smithing compare diffrent sword edges you can do that by naming the swords
For the most money in the endgame your gonna want to use the tier 4 blade that is for wrought iron gives the most bang for your buck
Bro actually played as Mansa Musa giving money to everyone
Just so Laith knows, Bannerlords economy takes around a year to stabilize. When the game starts prices will fluctuate with no rhyme or reason making profitable trade very difficult. The reason for this is that it takes time for the villages to supply the cities, and the cities to begin trade with each other. So you could easily buy leather in a seemingly leather rich area, only to find out its even cheaper in a leather scarce area (makes no sense thank you taleworlds)
.
I normally don't like your non EU4 content. But Mount and blade man.. That always works.
You gave us a playthrough as a merchant, but how about as a Robin Hood-style outlaw?
Rules:
1) You can only recruit mercenaries and bandit troops.
2) You cannot become a vassal of any faction, although you can sign mercenary contracts
3) You must always attempt to raid caravans and villages.
4) The only quests you can do must be from gang leaders.
5) If you defeat a noble, you MUST capture them (but you may either kill or ransom them as you wish).
Part 2 of this world domination
Trade and economy are very interesting. Making money is fun!
12:20 ayyy thats where i remember you from
Buying a few mules early on to carry more at a faster speed would probably have saved you a lot of money from still being able to outrun bandits and take more to further routes quicker
He was a business man, doing business
I think it probably would have better to have not joined a faction until you unlocked the ability to trade fiefs, which would have let you rapidly build a massive powerbase in whatever kingdom.
Then, join whichever faction is the biggest, buy up everything from the inside, and then hope they don't go to war.
You only need T3 units until you start facing lords because they are strong enough for bandits etc. T3 units will be a lot cheaper for wages and you can do a lot more quests for $.
selling weapons of war is not a "pacifist" move...
hahaha.. top notch entertainment..
Let’s go some new content, honey wake up we feasting tonight!
Hell Yeah, more Bannerlord
I’m like 10 mins in and I’m absolutely furious that laith hasn’t bought any mules
Laith's 2 master's and 1 bachelor's, make me really depressed considering I'm just applying for my first masters. What degree do u have?
I wonder if one can be a pain to other empires by letting oneself be stopped by bandits, and then give them a ton of weapons, food, and armor, to be a bigger and badder force against any nation's armies.
Mansa is title Laith, his name was Musa Keita.
You literally became an arms manufacturer and dealer in a pacifist run 😭😭😭
"Mansa" means King, just a title; "Musa" is Moses, his first name; his dynasty was "Keita". If I'm not wrong...
Ik im late but how do you see where you can sell it for more at when you hover over the item you wanna sell?
If only he bought horses
the smith grind takes soooo long
"If I get caught your never going to see this video" Lol
Smacked a cow guess hell have to start over...
I mean Mansa was a slaver. He made his money killing and enslaving his neighbours, brought 10,000 slaves with him on his Hajj to Mecca, a hundred years before the Portuguese starting visiting those southern shores.. Pacifist seems a bit of a stretch lol
I don't think a couple of local farmers hired on as labourers and animal herders counts as "troops".
You should really click that little arrow in the bottom right corner of the game screen. It expands the menu so you can see your party speed, and hovering over that tells you what is modifying it.
In future you should really hire "porters" for trade runs. I for one wouldn't hold it against a pacifism run if you hire people to drag horses to lug your loot. Just don't let them go into combat and you should be fine.
Buying more horses adds carrying capacity and movement speed... No need to wait 1 hour to walk the map lmao
Holy hell, buy mules!
6:23 How dare you assume I'd skip that part, I mean even if I am skipping, that doesn't give you the right to assume that I am
his name is musa mansa means ruler , and yes i googled that
He makes marriage sound just like slavery, but with extra steps. 😂😂😂
How do workshops make money consistently. I own a wood workshop and the bound village supplies wood but it never makes any money. I have the same issue no matter what sort of workshops I buy
I vote for a fanatic raider run. no talking och engaging with anyone(except for recruiting ). Just big bonks and stealing booty
Why didn’t he buy mules and work horses so he would have more carry capacity?
Jailbreaker Run and try and get 100 relations with a faction from each kingdom by breaking prisoners out of jail.
Dose he know that pack animals can increase is carrying capacity? That is like BANNER lord 101
i think hiring recruits is ok as long as you dint fight they are just workers
Pass a fist! pass a fist!
more banner lord
Friendly reminder next time use command for speed 🤣
He forgot about workshops-
More more more more more more more more ekdi
Pacifist? Technically yes.
A good person? Nobody said anything of that sort.
Who don't you buy more horses to increase carry weight and speed!
You know you can call people to your party from the clan page
The Rapture is coming soon
Should have invested in riding and scouting at first
You should hire recurits Intimidating with troops is pacifist
Why can’t you have a group of men helping you be a merchant. They deter weak bandits and if you get into issues just surrender
