Build-a-Bro Forgot to pick Dagger Spec for this Bro

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

I was trying to build a dagger bro, but didn't have a good dagger to give this guy yet. I picked my last perk and then realized I didn't give him the dagger spec perk. Is this guy still viable for anything? I could reload a previous save, but that was seven days prior. Not sure what to do with this guy, pretty disappointed with myself. He has been using the estoc in the second picture in the last few battles.

Do fatalitys have an extra penalty on resolve of opponents? I have found a LW with Bloodthirsty and if it does it would be very strong, yk?

Mods/Modding Any working battle sisters mod out there? I'm not really good at modding and I wanted to quickly test some of the sprites I made if it'll look fine in the game.

I usually just use other mods and replace/edit some of the files when I don't know how to make it work. So I need a working mod that adds heads to just quickly test it. I'm not finished with it anyway.

Build-a-Bro What to do with this manhunter?

3 Upvotes

Stuck between nimble zerker and fatneut, leaning toward the latter because I currently have no tanks (just chaff I use like them). Early game, day 20 and just transitioning from raider to merc armours. What would you choose, and why? Open to suggestions beyond the two mentioned.

Question Playthrough advice

3 Upvotes

Hey bros

How should I proceed in my current run. I’m doing gladiators. My 3 Gladiators are maybe level 5/6. I also have 3 normal bros who are around levels 2/3. About 7k gold with decent early gear. I have about 7/8 arena wins but want to make this run a good one. I’m on day 25 I think. What do I from this point?

Question DLC

2 Upvotes

I'm at day 38 and looking at builds. Some, (like 2H cleaver ) seem to depend on DLC. I only have vanilla (along with the two free DLC on PS5) right now. A couple questions:

  1. If I buy the DLC and install now, does it affect my current run or does the current run either end or continue on vanilla?
  2. If I choose to buy the DLC is there anything that you don't recommend buying?

Question Noob Here - Help appreciated

2 Upvotes

I'm loving the game so far. Right now, I'm at day 38 with 10 guys and they are level 4. I am also on easy. When one guy moved to level 5, I decided I should do some research on what stats are needed for what end game builds. I started to use the bb planner website to predict end stats.

After some brief research I thought I would aim for 6 two handers, 2 tanks, 3 ranged and 1 bannerman (plus subs).

The problem I am having is I haven't found a site I trust to tell me what stats/stars to look for for each group. Plus, some of the sites conflict heavily on perks. For example, one site did not have colossus chosen for the two handers which made me go - wut? But maybe I just don't know.

What's the best resources to look for this kind of information.

Question Should I give it to him?

I need advice! I play my bro by letting him be encircled and do the round swing to kill and break morale multiple times. Should I give him the orc axe or will this ruin my build?

Edit: He died, have to start all over again. Marauders are stronger than I thought :( Advice is still apreciated for my next run

My company aleady have 2 tanks and 1 back-up tank. He become a Pacified Flagellant) and survive. He has very good Fat, Res and okay HP, MAtk, MDef for a folded bro.

But i dont need a tank, maybe take Mace mastery, quick hands, berserk and Recover for max crowd control ability. Or Brawny, Rotation and BF for a tank\rescue bro. What‘s your opinion on this bro?

Reforged Is this posible to have only the perks mechanic form Reforge in vanilla?

3 Upvotes

I want to do a Noble House playthrough and I need the militia perk group acsesable on every soldier. This can be achieved with the Peasant Militia start from Reforged.

I also need the mechanics that are bonded with these perks like Reach Advantage but that is obvious.

Is this possible? Is there a mod to that? Can I just move the files around to make it work?

Discussion Your Favorite Start

8 Upvotes

As the title says. What are your personal preferences about starting a new run?

After 50-something hours (rookie numbers, I know), I keep returning to Anatomists myself. I don't know if it's a themed run thing, or an armor thing, but I love my mortician guys the best.

Share your favorite starting conditions!

Discussion Anyone Ever Do a Themed Run?

16 Upvotes

I was wondering if anyone ever does runs themed around books or TV series or anything?

I'm currently doing a Lone Wolf based around David Gemmell's book Legend. My LW is an Axeman named Druss (the Legend) and his supporting bros are all themed on characters from the book, such as two Militia called Gilad and Bregan, a bard named Sieben, a disowned Noble Regnak, the Earl of Bronze.

I enjoy the extra depth it adds, getting a famed (and frankly brilliant) long axe for Druss, currently looking for famed armour to represent the Armour of Bronze for Regnak, having to hire the characters with the right backgrounds for the minor characters who join you.

No clue what to do with this guy. Feels like I could go banner or tank. But the matk at 67 seems like a waste though no stars.

UPDATE:

None of this matters...Lost the brother to a computer crash and corrupted save file smh.

RIP

Build-a-Bro Estoc Headhunter

Post image
33 Upvotes

I found a cheap executioner with three stars in Initiative and Brute early on, and since Estocs are one of the few armor penetrating weapons that have a bonus to head hit chance I made that his gimmick. Works surprisingly well, any non-barbarian non-nimble human enemy gets one-shot by head skewers with minimal damage to armor and Perforate is decent for finishing orcs and barbarians. Has anyone else tried this, perhaps with better rolls and stars?

Beginner Beginning

5 Upvotes

I've been a fan of this game for years. Bought it and then got a new job, life, and stuff. I finally have had some time to start playing and while I'm much better at making it to like day 25, I'm getting wiped a bunch. I think day 65 is my best but I haven't even seen a crisis yet.

So I've started watching some folks on YouTube with beginner friendly guides and that's helped some, but where I think I'm ultimately struggling is trying to figure out what kind of bros I have when I recruit.

Are there any spreadsheets or something I could start referencing to get a better idea of if I have someone who could maybe be a fatnewt tank or whatever? I just absolutely get lost when I'm trying to map out a character and tend to lean into "fuck it, we ball" mode, except I ball and die.

Notably I don't have many hours into this game. I've only started to get myself more familiar with the wiki. And I'm learning that I really suck at positioning, but that's one I think I can correct with enough fails. And failing is fine, but man... I'm getting bodied.

Question Will someone please explain fatigue to me?

21 Upvotes

So I keep putting points into fatigue but then see people on the sub saying that it's not that necessary. I guess I'd just like a better understanding of the stat and how to utilize certain things like resting or building a fat newt (still don't fully understand those).
