The artifacts given to Emma will give you militia in addition to loyalty, which you can send to other towns. Medkit is the same as First Aid Kit but better, and unlike JA2 they both occupies the same space. You should replace FAKs immediately if you find Medkits. Once you get the wig for the quest, the best thing to spend GC Francs is either on Magazines or on Parts. I think you can exchange them for artifacts and ammo at the Poachers' Camp as well, I forgot which ammo. Remember that these merchants' goods resets once a day. By the way, that shotgun you get from the wig quest? Do not scrap it if you are done using it. You can sell or give it away for reps to Granny Cohani. Do not mention the shotgun to her at all until you want to give it to her or you will lose reputation.
Another good tip is, barry is the cheapest demolition merc, hire him at the beginning and after you get fidel or other better demolition merc, dont dismiss him, give him your extra 7.62 nato ammo and leave him working forever in a workshop building 7.62 nato ammo piercing rounds, you will need a lot to the end game, he can also build .50 ammo or .50 frag ammo.
Barry is a must-have choice in ANY merc sets in my humble opinion. He is a real well-rounder despite he is titled as an 'explosive expert', has great wisdom to learn fast, great DEX and EXP (of course). And enough AGI/MRK to be your regular soldier. Even if you have another explosive expert, Barry still can craft ammo for you. And he is the only explosive expert among 'recruit' mercs list. Oh yes, he has one of the best talents in whole game, his self-made charges are irreplaceable in some quests like saving Smiley (when you need to kill Boss Blaubert and a lot of his soldiers in a close quarters). And last one thing that make him imbalanced for me: he is the cheapest merc of all JA3. This guy has no cons, only pros.
there are large diamonds worth 5k(missing in cheat sheet)..if you got all loot boxes/info you can sell tiny diamonds for 600 to the priest in fleatown church (700 with rogue trait)
I did this with my custom merc with Psycho, but in the same time I also talked to his wife with livewire and scoundrel perk have the same result. But I think the game is broken, I am receiving the rep and the militia, but I don't see the money coming in.
Best weapons are: Rifles: fn-fal, ak-74 Smg: ak su LMG: HK-21 They use 7.62 nato or warsaw ammo and you have an infinte amount of it. The ak su have the damage of an ak-47 and all run and gun special skill that with 6 ap, you can move a lot and hit the enemy 3 times! All my squads have a flanker with it.
For LMG there's no 'best' choice for me, because often you will be out of ammo to use it. For me nice set is HK-21/Minimi/RPK to use two or three of them in one squad. For me, it depends on the types of ammo that you have at the moment.
In the hands of the right merc shotguns can be quite useful as a secondary weapon. Wolf Sanderson really caused some serious damage in several battles with an AA12.
Man, I'm glad a few poeple still checking for JA3 content! Seems like most players went on to other games already! Hope you can find some more useful or funny videos on my channel :)
wire utter tip very useful. I think you can sell items by giving them to mercantile, end contract and then accept the offer to sell inventory ? I wonder if that can be worth hiring a trainer for a bit then breaking contract and selling an inventory ? Also does need pay start from landing time or when appears in mapedge ?
Ha, wow. Nice Idea mate, thanks! If you don't mind ill try that out tomorrow and make a short out of it and give the information! But what do you mean by trainer? Can you explain your thoughts a little further?
@@chr_isso Sometimes mes it’s useful to hire a merc for something. For me it is most likely just to get a merc up a point in something as some things like agility seem based off numbers divided by ten Could be wrong. But any one off hiring could result in short term contract In which case i wonder how the game calculates how much things are worth ? indeed some things may often just be left around and you could hire someone to hoover them up for then be contract ended.
@@chr_isso With a knife you can throw if you don't have enough movements to make it to your target, and you have a slot to hold a grenade. Machetes take two slots, and so no backup grenades to toss.
You can build more sharpening stones and balancing stone on create explosives, I sharp all my machetes and balance all knives. All good to craft ballistic plates to make light armor as good as heavy armor, for 4 hits and replace it.
Bit of an odd omission that you don't include that you can use chien to buy relics. And your cheat sheet say scrap weapons... but you get more scrap if your repair items then scrap them. You make the same mistake of scrapping damaged items in the video. I tested with an AK-47 at 50% and it gave 5 scrap, if I repair it I pay 3 scrap and now it's worth 10 scrap. (Might be due to Wolf reducing the cost of repairing? Wolf is just an insane buff to operations)
Wow, good tip. But did you take into consideration that repairing costs parts, too? I never bothered to first repair stuff and then scrap it, never seemed worth the time to do so. But it's a good addition, thank you!
Whats up with quest items like notes, maps or books with quest Infos? It seems you dont need them in the inventory of it is not an item that you have to deliver to somebody. Can somebody clarify?
@@chr_isso priest tells you about "ghost" that scratches on church walls at night. You can find him in I10. Legion is trying to set up a trap to catch him. after getting rid of them you need to put mercenary on each road going out of the sector(not sure if you just don't need to go to correct exit, cause how would you do that with only 1 merc). Then "the ghost" appears and attacks you. after killing him you get a note about a hidden tresury in the church. If you tell the priest about it you will get rep. But you can also steal it to get a Lion relic. Priest will notice it, but you can give him a gold bar in exchange. I think you need to have a negotiator in the team. Hope i recall it correctly :)
@@chr_isso After you solved "ghost in the church" (or something like that) by ambushing a guy on the other side of the river, you can return to the church and you'll find a relic in there. If you don't have a merc with the Rogue talent in your group, the priest will be angry when you take it (and you'll probably lose loyalty or something like that, no clue). I'm guessing that you can prevent that by giving him a gold bar instead. You'll conveniently find one of these at the smugglers' camp where you solve the previously mentioned side quest. (at least I did, although I never knew I would need it until I read this comment.) I had Fox on my team, so she resolved the issue for me for free.
It would be good to know all uniques n case you scrap them stupidly. Also where and how and in what order to obtain. …… hope you are recording all funny dialogue fir compilation some time.

I used the shotgun for the quest, so I didn't keep it.
But good points here, will add the suggestions to the Cheat Sheet!
In Poacher's Camp you can only buy artifacts for Gran Chien money (once every 5 days, if I'm not mistaken), the 7.62WP ammo is paid for by US$.

Barry is simply awesome. He learns so fast that he is already at 80+ in Marksman for me, so I use him just as a regular soldier. But love your tip!
@@chr_isso Barry is an absolute asset. He saved my crew several times with his DIY shaped charges.

Thanks, I added the items to the list. Thanks for the input!
Extrem wichtiges und gutes Video!
Danke für das Lob!
Use someone with Psycho trait to talk to the Gouverneur BEFORE giving relics to Emma, will net you $1000/relic in addition to rep and militia
I did this with my custom merc with Psycho, but in the same time I also talked to his wife with livewire and scoundrel perk have the same result. But I think the game is broken, I am receiving the rep and the militia, but I don't see the money coming in.
Franks can also be used to buy relics at the poachers camp

@gandibaat3637 dude, 7.62 nato rounds is the most common ammo in the game, every time you loot an mg42 you get 120 rounds of it.
In the hands of the right merc shotguns can be quite useful as a secondary weapon. Wolf Sanderson really caused some serious damage in several battles with an AA12.
Agreed. I had to learn how to use them but they can definitely come in handy!
Very good video!
Good video! Wish I'd found it earier.. I carried the cash items for ages.
Man, I'm glad a few poeple still checking for JA3 content! Seems like most players went on to other games already! Hope you can find some more useful or funny videos on my channel :)
You can also buy a chien artifact fir francs somewhere in north west i forgot where.
Yeah I think I did that, too. But I forgot where exactly, dayum. Thanks for the addition!

Flay has a special stone to combine. I wonder which item is best saved for this ?
Easy: take a machete!
Has more damage than a knife.

The hour cost to repair the item vs wolf daily salary, doesn't make it worth.

i found that only the communist magazine is worth keeping, all other items can be left behind after the quest completed.
i think you need at least one gold bar - you can give it to the priest when he catches you stealing the relic
I didnt do that yet (im an honest person, lol) Can you explain it further?
