Plus: the new LPs and reissues of 2023. Crossbows/Aimed Shot wont benefit as much due to their higher innate accuracy and lower rate of fire. In that regard, the damage formula works against Steel Brow and Head Hunter, because critical hits are weaker than you might expect assuming there is a helmet to help absorb the blow. This mobility is a huge advantage for Polearm users and one of the reasons why Polearm Mastery is so good. You can also use weapons that have their own debuffs or control abilities, where going first may be crucial. Lindwurms while not technically immune are functionally immune because of their 1100 hp pool. For a detailed analysis as well as more Nimble vs. Nimble bros even without INI investment will naturally outspeed heavy enemies like Warriors and Ancient Dead so there is a bit less enemies to jump ahead on with Adrenaline. Archers: LW is awkwardAlthough the huge RSK buff might seem exciting, it is pretty hard to get good value here on an archer. How useful Relentless is here is dependent on how fast you gain FAT and which enemies you are trying to outspeed. Due to the damage formula, Nimble can even beat Colossus around 85% Nimble. Both your bros and the enemies are very fragile so getting an extra turn of attacks in can make an enormous difference offensively and defensively. Specifically, early game Stun or Lash spammers can benefit a lot here. In this scenario Underdog is going to be providing you only 5 defense because you can only ever be engaged by two enemies. Other mechanics A buff bubble will appear in the left side of the screen when you have a stack primed Does not stack upon itself. Designated MartyrsThis isnt a strategy that I am much of a fan of because I think it is needlessly costly, a waste of XP, and not necessary. Built this guy for fun, it's in no way a serious or optimal build at all. I would like to hope everyone can get something out of this guide.if(typeof ez_ad_units!='undefined'){ez_ad_units.push([[250,250],'gamerofpassion_com-large-leaderboard-2','ezslot_4',110,'0','0'])};__ez_fad_position('div-gpt-ad-gamerofpassion_com-large-leaderboard-2-0'); Beginners will find plenty of advice to make informed decisions on when and why to choose a particular perk. They are not a package deal. Destroy/Demolish Armor deals 33% more damage against armor (multiplicative boost goes from 1.5x modifier to 2x modifier). abilities want to go firstStagger and Daze are both handy debuffs that will knock the enemy down the turn order or mitigate their damage output. Dragon Quest IV : L'pope des lus. Lastly, with a good understanding of the game and how to properly position your team and formation, you often dont need Rotation at all. Indom and a fully stacked Glorious Endurance offers extraordinary durability, and makes the Bear significantly more tanky than any regular bro with the same stats. The only reason Forge might care about Brow is to help offer some passive (non Indom dependent) protection against high Ignore% attackers like Chosen Mace/Hammer, and Heavy Crossbows. Master how to remove your pommel and end them rightly.. Misconception Indom is dependent on Recover to be goodNo. Caves of Qud Beginner Guide (Spoiler-free) . You do not need to pump RES into your bro to get value here. Fortified Mind: More Fearsome valueIt is not necessary to use Mind or invest heavily into RES to benefit from Fearsomes second effect. Comparisons aside, damage dealers would certainly enjoy using all three of them, and they all help improve each other. There are also other enemies that having a higher hp count will help you against such as Crossbows/Unholds/Schrats/Goblins/etc. Misconception Defense is not necessary with heavy armorNo. Duelists however can sometimes out damage the 2H Cleavers, cost less FAT to hold and swing (unless Orc), and are much better at dealing injuries. HH allows for smart targeting for high valueCalculator tests aside, BB is a dynamic game, and we can be smart players. Discussion75% Stun chances are annoying. In BB, its a much better idea to focus fire your damage on just a few enemies at a time to quickly get kills rather than spreading damage around the enemy party. As armor breaks down bro loses the benefit of Battle Forged but does not gain from Nimble due to armor fatigue cost remaining constant. 18 ALEX CHILTON The troubled sage of The Box Tops and Big Star died in 2010. Misconception HP is unnecessary for heavy armored characters with ForgeNo. The common argument against Gifted almost always has to do with Veteran levels. Dagger Puncture: Injure almost everything consistentlyBecause it completely ignores armor, Puncture is a great way to set up injuries and with CS you can injure just about everything in the game, even Orc Warriors. Attacking before an enemy can provide more benefits than just trying to get well timed killing blows. For Goedendag, Mace Mastery will only effect Knock Out while Spear Mastery will only effect Thrust. Warbow is looking sad, but you generally arent shooting Chosen with Warbows anyway. Since the damage mitigation from armor occurs near the end of the damage calculation, abilities that reduce damage prior to this occurring are stronger than expected. Ancient Dead, Goblins, Nomads, Barbarians (as of BD), and most Beasts all have Pathfinder, which will put your team at a disadvantage if you dont have it. FA will win out however, when your hit chance is low like against Shieldwalling enemies, and when you cant surround. Master Archers can have no hat or a Hunter Cap so it is fine on them as well.Head Hunter (continued)Use CasesDamage perk stackingHH enjoys damage bonuses such as Executioner and Frenzy to further lay in the damage. Mastery makes it a lot easier to use Lash and is worth 15-25 accuracy against shielded enemies which is huge. Recall that once enemy morale drops it lowers their RES, making it easier to get more drops. However you cannot gain more than one stack during the process regardless of when you gain it. It isnt uncommon that I see people say that Backstabber is an easy +10 accuracy for Polearms but this isnt the case. 10% injured on first shot. But otherwise, pairing those with another ranged weapon should address any ammunition problem (see the relevant section below). If you have any questions or suggestions, please leave a comment. + Amazing in rough terrain or maps with hills+ Can save a lot of Fatigue Better with some weapons than others Not doing much in flat maps, Movement costsTerrain TypeNormal CostPathfinder CostDry Steppe/Road2 AP + 2 FAT2 AP + 1 FATGrass/Steppe/Tundra2 AP + 4 FAT2 AP + 2 FATDesert2 AP + 6 FAT2 AP + 3 FATForest/Snow/Muddy Earth3 AP + 6 FAT2 AP + 3 FATShallow Water (Oasis)4 AP + 12 FAT3 AP + 6 FATMurky Water (Swamp)4 AP + 14 FAT3 AP + 7 FAT, Changing terrain elevation increases AP cost by 1 and FAT cost by 4. Forge impacts weak and medium attacks far more than high damage threats that heavy armor is vulnerable to. The first Japanese airplane was shot down using the Navy's new proximity-fused five-inch projectile, and the Vought F4U Corsair flew its first combat missions on Guadalcanal. Bags can help you carry these new potions and they are all quite good. Early game: Student is not advised if you are strugglingIf you are having trouble in the early game then you should not be using Student. Lets take a case: If the critical multiplier was applied earlier in the formula, damage taken would have been 11 instead of 6. Recover can help 2H builds but it is by no means a necessity. Heavy Axes are noticeably weaker but can be ok as a means to bring Throwers into Ancient Dead fights. The biggest overhaul mod for Battle Brothers, increases replayability and variety. Most enemy compositions will feature plenty of easy to kill enemies with maybe a few elites to go along with them. However, the prohibitive cost of Indom may entice you to seek alternatives. The Gilded weapons are more threatening to Nimble units than Forge units. Injuries are not just really annoying, but some enemies have Executioner to further punish your injuries. However, there isnt really any unique synergy between Initiative and Duelists. Polearms can attack twice and move one tile with Berserk, giving them a large amount of flexibility and ability to find targets to take advantage of the extra AP. The softcap only slows this down by a little. + Very good against Hexen+ Status effects can be crippling/annoying, and less damage from bleeds Better on Nimble who tends to be more bothered by status than Forge Status effects are fairly rare Status effects are usually not too bothersome to devote a perk Less bleeding damage is not good enough reason to take Resilient over another defensive perk. Its not a rating scale. These additional tools can certainly help a character going in or being rotated to the front for off-tanking. With all of those points in mind, people usually pass on 9L in favor of defensive perks that are more consistently helpful, and/or to use escape perks such as Rotation/Footwork. Footman is 60. Swinging his Banner (12) and movement is unlikely to accumulate FAT. Similar deal against Unholds and Lindwurms. So all that really leaves for Forge to care about is Hexe Charm. There is diminishing returns on Berserk across the party. Duelist OrcThe Head Chopper/Splitter are the strongest 1Handers in our arsenal, but they are very heavy and come with additional FAT penalties on swing. That would bring our Mind gain to 3.25 levels. This is your warning! Nimble is better against high armor penetration strikes. However, now that Nimble has changed, you dont need Anticipation. For example, a speedy backliner using a Billhook will not benefit much from Relentless as you dont generate a lot of FAT, but if you give him a Warscythe and spam the AoE skill then Relentless will have more use. With weapon spec they only cost 12 to swing and since you recover 15 per turn you will not accumulate Fatigue without Berserk or other skills or getting hit. The bonus goes to +10 when Shieldwalling and that is quite good, even if you probably wont be Shieldwalling all of the time unless it is a super tank build that never attacks. A lot of perks can be boiled down to just stats.. Is more Resolve better than a different stat booster?As a raw stat perk, Mind is going to have to be compared to the other raw stat perks. In many ways FA is more useful on damage dealers than mediocre shield bros. Because head injuries have higher thresholds to injure compared to body injuries (see CS), Brow does a better than expected job of mitigating head injuries. And what she lacks in size, she makes up for in determination. They also suffer -3 Resolve on all morale checks for each adjacent enemy. So if the target has 70 remaining body armor after taking the armor damage, then 7 of the 10 maximum damage ignoring armor is subtracted, and only 3 damage is dealt instead. Most weapons can function well enough on a normal FAT pool, but using these skills multiple turns a fight on top of weapon usage will drain FAT extremely quickly, making Recover handy to continue usage. Having more than 50 RES will certainly have value in Monolith. Pathfinder on normal flat terrain drops the cost of movement from 4 to 2. As you can see, ditching our shield and going Duelist makes an enormous difference to the offensive output of the Winged Mace, and other 1Handers will follow suit. This bro will draw ranged ire as the Ambushers scatter around, so the base 10 RDF of Anticipation can help as you charge them. You can use this to your advantage. Dogs in general are great for getting more surround bonuses and more Backstabber value. In summary, nets can turn the tide of a challenging battle. Gifted gives hp. Unlike the early game however, the Arena can feature some highly dangerous enemies. Looking for a better famed helm now. Chosen. The harder Barb fights will also have Unholds in the mix. The less obvious reason is that every turn they spend trying to break your shield, is a turn they arent trying to kill you. Melee bros can also capitalize on injuries distributed earlier on by your range units. Anti-Orc/Barbarians: Your shield wont last long without Shield ExpertOrcs and Barbarians have dangerous axes and 2Handers. Fencers also want to have Dodge so Relentless is offering some defensive benefits as well. However, Duelists are fairly perk starved and CS is a bit of a luxury that can be hard to fit in. This can allow bros with poor defense but high skill to pretty safely Spearwall. Many of your early game team is likely destined for Nimble so Dodge will still be useable later. Every single fight can be beaten without using Forge. The Blunt head injury pool is rather small, so CS can really help you land these desirable injuries. We can reasonably expect that Reach will be granting at least 5 defense on average (for AoE or Cleaver) which makes it a fine perk already because of how important defense is. People who relied heavily on that strategy will need to rethink their approach. is now worth 10% per stack, up from 8%, Nine Lives now clears existing DoT effects upon triggering, and grants +15 MDF/RDF/RES/INI until bros next turn, Anticipation now also provides a minimum of 10 RDF if the formula would have yielded less, Relentless now negates the 25% Initiative penalty of waiting, Sword Mastery now buffs Gash Injury chances. That would put Brow in about a similar position as many of the raw stat boosters. Nimble characters can wield two-handed weapons, shields or other tools to great effects. Battle Brothers: In-Depth Guide On Perks (2020 - Blazing Deserts Updates) Caves of Qud. Nimble: Indom is still amazingAlthough technically Nimble tends to benefit less from Indom than Forge does (relatively speaking), it is still incredibly strong, and Nimble-Indom can beat Forge-Indom in some matchups. Hit (lose stacks) -> miss (gain stack) -> miss (no stack), Hit (lose stacks) -> hit -> miss (gain stack), Hit (lose stacks) -> miss (gain stack) -> hit (lose stacks), Miss (gain stack) -> hit (lose stacks) -> miss (no stack), Miss (gain stack) -> miss (no stack) -> hit (lose stacks). Standing next to enemies grants -3 hidden RES debuff for each enemy. . Many fall in the face of chaos; but not this one, not today.. Loneaxe no longer gets -15% accuracy penalty for attacking adjacent targets. Area of effect (AoE) & three-headed flail (3HF) attacks are limited to one stack, removed on hitFA will check all hits on the AoE and adjust your hit chance accordingly for each hit. How useful Relentless is going to be depends on how quickly you accumulate Fatigue and how important it is for your bro to go early in the turn order. See the Pathfinder section for details. Essentially, it acts as a multiplier on total armor durability. If you need a reminder on how injury mechanics work then go back to the CS section. Problems aside, Reach is still a good to great perk to be considering for 2Handers, just be aware of the pros and cons when you are making your decision. + Increases damage output+ Better against lightly armored enemies+ Guaranteed headshots allow for precision targeting for high value Can actually make your bro worse at dealing damage Headshots are weaker than you expect Value is mitigated by Steel Brow enemies, Effective Headshot% gained from HeadHunterBase ChanceMean w/ HHEff Increase25%39.6%14.6%30%45.9%15.9%35%51.6%16.6%40%56.9%16.9%45%61.9%16.9%50%66.6%16.6%.

You have both weak and light armor and weapons meaning you have less FAT penalty coming out of your gear. Are you really sure you want to be halving your accuracy?Lets start with cover mechanics and how they affect accuracy. Bleeding, Charmed) has its duration reduced to 1 turn. It has to compete with other good defensive perks like Colossus, Dodge, Gifted, etc. You can build a fast bro who goes early in the turn order to weaken enemy units so that your other bros can get the kills. If the [brothers] must be soldiers, they will be good soldiers.. Check thiswiki page to know more about damage calculation. If you wish to get Nimble asap then Student can help you get there faster at the cost of a weaker early game. A 80 HP BF guy isn't going to perform much better than an 80 HP nimble guy. : 40 base RES is +10 and 43 base RES is also +10 Updates as your bro levels and gains more points Modifies after traits like Brave/Fearless Modifies Resolve gained from Trophies or the Sash Modifies Resolve gained from the Banner aura and Lionheart Potions Refer to thislink to see various Resolve checks/modifiers. The takeaway is that stacking MDF is very strong. Overwhelm can help protect other teammates. Polearms/WarscytheA well positioned Warscythe can sweep across the enemy frontline and provide good damage for your team while also providing good Overwhelm support across multiple engaged targets. Regular attacks can be used on softer targets and Gash as an opening move on heavier units like Chosen. Making them a tank with Taunt can make sense. If you would like to see how helpful FA is with 80 MSK against some Chosen, refer tothis forum post. This can include frontliners. Basically it would just a better version of the Necro/Noble line. That would be 10 or 15 defense from Underdog which is huge. The problem is that there arent really that many status effects for Resilient to mitigate (see the mechanics section). Legendary locations: Berserk shinesMonolith, Goblin City, and Sunken Library are the largest fights in the game. Due to the wisdom of Nexus, we have created a Github where you can find the latest files.

Earthdawn - 1st Edition- Legends of Earthdawn - Volume One - Free download as PDF File (.pdf), Text File (.txt) or read online for free. Since only very heavy armor can compete with Nimble, and it takes a long time to acquire heavier armor, Nimble is one of the strongest perks in the midgame. Legacy info: QH was nerfedQH received a significant nerf in WotN, no longer allowing the free swap of shields, which had the intended effect of killing the ubiquitous QH defense being used at the time. You can never have too much defense. Thats almost a Round Shields worth of defense, and it isnt hard to find some bros with base INI even higher. Some tips for keeping your backline safe without FWThere are a few enemies in the game that are of higher threat to your ranged units than most. What makes Duelist so strong? Can also put in work against Nachzehrers, and other beasts that mindlessly charge Spearwalls. 'Low HP high Fatigue' means that you level HP. Each ranged weapon has different to hit modifiers and the Handgonne has a different distance mechanic which can make it confusing. Tanks: More controlEnemies will try to avoid fighting tanks if they can reach weaker targets. Having even just one Mace unit with Resilient can make Hexe fights a lot easier, and I highly recommend you do this if you find Hexe battles challenging. Each point of RES reduces these chances by 1%. Tanks: Shield Expert is an easy pickKind of obvious but since using a shield prevents you from using a 2hander/Duelist it leans in favor of a more defensive unit whose job is to hold dangerous positions rather than to deal damage. + Auto-pick on your Bannerman+ Helps against specific enemies like Hexe, Geists, Mortars, Priests, and Warlords+ Protects from stat loss via morale drops, and helps gain stats via Confident morale You can usually reach acceptable Resolve levels without Mind, Does not round, so you get +1 RES for every 4 points of real RES your bro has Ex. If a Savant moves then he can only attack once so it is in your favor if they move around. Taunt is a much earlier and cheaper option if you are looking for control against these enemies. 2Handers also have no trouble getting kills. It might seem like there are a lot of status effects but most of those are rare (Flies, Daze, Shellshocked, Withered, 2 turn stun). One reason being headshot damage applying last in the damage formula (see Game Mechanics). In the current state of the game, 60 HP 300/300 Forge can die in a couple heavy hits. CS is good against them. Smoke Bombs: Anyone can Footwork nowThe new Smoke Bombs step on FWs shoes as an escape tool. 2H Gains a little accuracy on the AoE which is hard to use, and no help to regular attacks except FAT, making Mastery more skippable unless using the Berserk Chain. Utility builds like the net or flask thrower can also make good use of Bags. Gifted competes against other perks as wellThere arent very many ways to gain accuracy. Since Nimble reduces incoming HP damage, increasing it with perks like Colossus and Gifted will improve a characters staying power. They have perks like Crippling Strikes and weapon mastery, though. Frenzy nor Xbows change that evaluation. Recover fuels other strong skillsRecover is a well-respected perk in the community, dare I even say overrated. For example, going from 90 93hit chance( SKL) gives 30% less relative chance to miss (3 10). Recover is a must for this build to continue Puncturing. Related Perks Rally the Troops, Lone Wolf, Fearsome. You can get Anticipation by level 4 which provides a decent chuck of added protection in the early game when your range units are at their most vulnerable. Standing next to adjacent friendly bros grants +3 hidden RES bonus for each bro. For example, if you have 80 MSK / 20 MDF / 50 RES you get +12/3/7 out of LW. Since Polearms require very little FAT to use, it nearly guarantees that your Rotation will be available when you need it. Alternatively, you can take Gifted for a +4 and then use the other Gifted gains to allow you to skip rolls elsewhere later on to take more +4s in RES. + Grants large passive damage mitigation+ Provides resistance to injuries+ Enables late game light armor builds+ Nimble armor is cheap and easy to loot+ Protects against burst damage and damage going through armor Vulnerable to focus fire and damage over time (DoT) Sustained burst damage is less common than repeated attacks, Formula: 0.4 + (FAT penalty above 15)^1.23 0.01A 20 FAT penalty gives: 0.4 + 5^1.23 0.01 = 0.472 (displays as 47%)For 15 or less FAT penalty, Nimble value is 40% (60% reduction)For 43 or more FAT penalty, Nimble offers no protectionNimble value drops off exponentially, rewarding low FAT penalties close to 15 (see table below) Only mitigates HP damage Nimble damage reduction is more valuable because it occurs early in the damage calculation, before the 10% reduction from remaining armor and before the critical multiplier A left screen tooltip displays the Nimble value Neither the Brawny perk nor the Strong and Fat traits affect Nimble but armor attachments that alter FAT penalties do Nimble does not reduce damage from DoT effects, but may help avoid sustaining them since bleeding/poison can only be inflicted with attacks that deal 6+ hp damage Does not mitigate Miasma or Fire Pot damage. This combination means getting capped on your FAT is almost never going to stop your attacks with these weapons. A 9AP cost is stifling. Also unlike Executioner, Frenzy works against Ancient Dead. The higher durability of these units means that they are harder to kill quickly, which means injuries have more time/likelihood to provide value. As you can see from this example, Indom made us take far less than half damage. If you stay in formation you probably dont need Mind. Misconception Gifted is only worth using on bad unitsNo. Although this treads over Rotations niche to some degree, having some Rotations on the team is still a good idea. This is very expensive on Fatigue and you should really try to either kill that enemy or smack him away with a different bro, but if you want your spearman to have his own ability to do so then this is an option. Archers: FA for Quick ShotSince ranged units cannot use Backstabber there is less perk competition for accuracy assistance leaving just Gifted and FA. An early Taunt user is going to want a Heater Shield purchase and defensive perk support. Shaman usually prefer casting Roots over Flies so it is rather rare, but your Goblin Trophy wearer is immune to Roots. Armor attachments Additional Fur Padding preferredArguably, the best armor attachment for Forge is Additional Fur Padding (AFP). AFP addresses heavy armor weakness to AID while providing valuable injury resistance Bone Platings (BP) is a worthwhile but unreliable option and Nimble characters want this attachment Light Padding Replacement (LPR) can be considered if FAT is an issue, but it doesnt directly impact durability Attachments granting +40 durability offer the best value against weak to medium attacks, but do little against dangerous AID. Reading through the entire guide start to finish will take some time, so it may make more sense to focus your reading on sections that interest you. Details. Spearwall no longer disables when enemies breach into your Zone of Control. This is especially troublesome for your Goblin Trophy user as he is immune to Vines/Nets but not the Flies, so if you wanted him to go hunt the Shamans he is going to want Resilient or else get ruined by Flies. As exciting as that sounds, the Shamshir itself is a rather poor Duelist option due to its low base Ignore% and low armor damage. + Effect is strong, similar to having more Defense+ Supports other teammates as well+ Better against harder to kill enemies You must out speed your opponent to apply it Discourages usage of the wait command, which is awkward If the enemy dies before attacking then Overwhelm did nothing, You must out-speed your opponent to apply Overwhelm Still applies stacks even if you miss Lowers skill by 10% per stack, which is ~6-8 skill for most enemies There is no stack cap, meaning 100% SKL loss is possible (5% minimum hit still applies) Can only apply one stack per attack action per enemy As per above, the 3H-Flail will only apply one stack per swing, not three AoE attacks can apply Overwhelm to multiple targets If a ranged attack misses and scatters to another target then both the original target and the scatter target will gain a stack Will reduce a units ability to break out of Nets as Net breaking is based on MSK. You should never be counting on veteran levels to matter on your builds. Friday's invite-only (and non-televised) awards dinner will go on as scheduled from L.A.

The Longaxe/Polehammer are also good weapons to use with QH, particularly for units that are already picking up Axe or Hammer spec for their main weapon. For example you can move 5 tiles in one turn by having someone rotate a bro forward and then that bro moving 4 tiles. A kill increases all damage by 25% for 2 turns. Easy pickup here. Fencers do generate Fatigue quickly but they also want to have Relentless anyway so it isnt much of a problem. More skill to hit things, more defense to avoid damage, and more hp to avoid injuries (or another stat of course). With some luck, you can deal injuries that cut HP by a % on the first attack and potentially deal a lot of free damage. This makes Indom way stronger than you would expect. Halves fixed damage from Bleed/Miasma/etc. Are two additional bag slots needed?Usually, the answer would be negative. Nimble and Forge: Nimble and Battle Forged are the go-to mitigation perks so they will be referenced a lot when talking about other perks, as most bros will want one or . Rotation can also help with mobility. However, it isnt easy to keep the Bannerman in perfect range safely. 2H Cleaver is another popular choice since you may already want to have a Whip and Cleaver Mastery anyway. The brothers end up with similar stat lines at level 11 and don't qualify for different builds. Recover supportThe larger your Fatigue pool is, the more that you can get back with Recover. + Increases highly valuable MSK+ Can yield more MSK than Gifted/Fast Adaptation (FA)+ Safe pick for any damage dealer Not as good on bros with naturally high MSK Most common case is +5 MSK, which is a low yield compared to other stat perks, Surrounding formula accuracy boost: (Number of adjacent units engaged 1) * 5 (10 with Backstabber) Ex. It isnt a practical idea to be splitting everyones shields and most annoying shield enemies have Shield Expert which makes their shields more durable. Each hit with a two-handed melee weapon adds a stack of Reach Advantage that increases your Melee Defense by 5, up to a maximum of 5 stacks, until this character`s next turn.
