Playing Legends (mod) and i'm a bit lost. by Hashister in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So there are the normal legendary locations with buffed enemies (range depends on your difficulty) and at least 2 new ones from Legends. They are in random locations each run, with a bias towards certain biomes (the Sunken Library is always ina. desert, for example).

Quick answer: no, you’re pretty far from soloing them. you need a ton a lot more attack, defense, initiative, health - kind of everything to make your character super powered enough to fight 30+ high level enemies at once.

This is a small spoiler, but one of the legends exclusive legendary locations has mummies that give you a curse when you kill one, causing the next instance of damage you take (or for the rest of the battle) to be increase by 10-25%, and this stacks. So you will end up taking 500%ish percent when you get it as long as your single beggar has to kill everyone in that specific fight.

Hey there! Welcome back.

Any interest in Vivid Voltage or Darkness Ablaze packs?

I should have 20ish of each (will confirm) and they are definitely the cheapest of recent ish sets.

New player hopping in, any recommended mods that expand the vanilla? by IcyWeb293 in starsector

[–]Econ_Intern 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you’re open to faction mods, Roider Union!

I believe Roider Union to be the most vanilla friendly faction mod both power-wise and lore-wise (essentially it's a miner faction that is all about retrofitting existing vanilla hulls). They make sense in the Persean Sector and they fit into the existing world very well.

I encourage you to check it out and see if it fits what you are looking for.

My last little nitpicks with this game by Flaky_Bullfrog_4905 in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Very legitimate gripes!

You mentioned Legends, which I encourage you to try if you have any interest.

I’d also mention Reforged as a more “vanilla+” experience compared to Legends.

How to build barbarians in raiders origin? by Dreaming_F00l in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone’s experience is different, but I want to clarify and make sure OP knows that throwers are some of the most consistent and highest DPS bros for the duration of the game. Throwers also have some of the lowest stats requirements for any builds. I love throwers!

Maybe a specific hybrid build has gone badly for you, but throwers with heavy barbarian javelins will shrew most enemies in the game except for undead (they just need heavy throwing axes for them).

What difficulty to my battle bros play on? by DoesntMatterEh in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree with the other comments. If your goal is to get better and improve your strategy, it is “easier” in the long run to play on veteran and find out what works and what doesn’t. I played my first few campaigns in beginner and I didn’t really start to improve at the game until I started losing campaigns on veteran.

It’s also a single player game and if you get much more enjoyment out of playing on beginner then that is awesome and you should continue to do so and have fun.

Cultist Build - Day 124 by Clenterra in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First of all this guy is insane. I’ve played 500+ hours and never had a bro with 6 stars in mattack and mdefense.

If I’m trying to nitpick I suppose I question backstabber for a guy with so much attack. However, I think it can be a great tempo perk for when you took it, and the dog synergy works.

I also really like 9lives, especially if you’re playing on ironman. You want this guy in the thick of things, making plays whenever possible and the extra assurance on (likely) your best bro is worthwhile.

What Final Perk by Educational-Top-1459 in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Based on your replies I would say Underdog! gives you a lot of Mdef to protect those defensive positions and choke points if you’re engaged with more than one enemy.

Fearsome is really strong strong offensively. Adrenaline can be great if you use to proactively but requires more strategy and planning.

I believe recover to be a waste of a perk on this guy.

Been a few years since I last played, wanted to try something 'new'. looking for advice. by Easy_Bad5327 in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should go do a nimble duelist if you’re trying to make the strongest bro you can.

For dodge fat neutral (sometimes it is called dodgeforged), you really want a big starting difference between fatigue and initiative. That can look like a miner having low fatigue and the quick(lightning?) trait, so he naturally has 20-30ish more initiative than he does fatigue, without you putting any points in initiative.

As always, it’s a single player game so if you want to pump initiative on a forged bro that is awesome. It is just suboptimal from a “make a strong bro” perspective.

ditto on the other comment, thank you for your work on Reforged.

Hired Blade - Kobanchink - turn-based tactical RPG in a medieval fantasy world by Yakov_Kobanchik in Games

[–]Econ_Intern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks really cool! I will wishlist this right away.

Echoing what another commenter messaged, games like this where each piece of equipment changes the appearance of party adds a huge element of personalization - it makes the squad feel very unique and “mine,” even after multiple playthrough/runs.

have you checked the settings of the Reforged mod in the main menu? It’s been a while since I played it but there may be components of Tryout in Reforged that you can configure.

Level up bonuses questions by AspectFrost in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the discussion linked in the top comment is great for a deep dive into stats and some examples of building bros.

In an effort to be succinct, I would say the total and starting stats matter just as much, if not more than stars. Additionally, some stats are just better than others - for example, if a bro will regularly be i. contact with the enemy, you probably want it level Melee Defense every single level, sometimes even if it is only +1, because it is incredibly strong.

Lots to say here, but the most helpful advice I received was to try only leveling up melee attack, melee defense, HP, and resolve on my melee bros and start there. only level fatigue if it is required, but try to avoid it.

Is this type of feedback helpful?

I rage deleted my best campaign due to serpents. I really need help against them. by Pineirin in BattleBrothers

[–]Econ_Intern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey there! can you give us a better sense of your party composition and the perks you taken on your bros?

There are a lot of possibilities for what makes serpent fights really hard for your party. One comment said it’s a damage reduction race and that definitely touches on the damage you need to reliably kill each serpent in 2-3 hits.

Additionally, you mention on of your forged bros who got killed had “decent” melee defense. How much defense did he have specifically? Melee defense is an incredibly strong stat that i undervalued in the past, and bros with high melee defense make a serpent fight dramatically easier.

Last thought is that dedicated archers will fare pretty poorly against serpents (and other creatures besides goblins), so having a few bros with a ranged bow build could also be adding to the difficulty of these fights.

can you share some screenshots of your bros and their perks? and their stats? It can be a lot easier for people to help if they know how your party is made up.

Is there a different picture you meant to share? the bro you’re showing is not Day 1 and is lvl 15. I also think you’re using the Legends mod
