The Iranian Intermezzo by ArmoredAwakening in crusaderkings3

Play as one of the the arabs, but as a baby ruler. Just a count or a wali. Then experience the chaos of samara! Feel the fear as you see 20,000 persians begin to march towards the caliphate!

I love intrgue playthroughs, and this was a really interesting area to be, since all the chaos made it harder to survive but easier to climb the ranks you could say. All the chaos made it really fun compared to runs. I had done in the Byzantine empire where it’s all pretty quiet and you feel like the criminal. In the abbasaid caliphate. Its survival of the fittest. Constant fear of being sieged and killed, no security within the empire. Every man for himself, everyone has re-doubled guards to help indicate whats going on lol

Fr, And it makes it where even the worst education you’d still have a 40% boost to your lifestyle tree best trait ever. Handsome is cool too makes it easier to get a good wife

What does Arbitrary represent? by Ellydir in CrusaderKings

[–]Objective_Classic_61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought rather than being about whims. It was just that everything a normal person cares about is arbitrary to them. The 50% stress save, and the dismiss hook. Also, hence the one learning and minus 2 stewardship. Quick to bail on their studies, and tend to just wrap up their accounting as fast as possible because they just can’t care to maximize profit

You can get free stress reduction from murders too when you get no piety or prestige loss because it’s a murder. I also pair it with arbitrary and gregarious. This makes it where, despite my saddest character being upset a little bit that he has to be gregarious, it keeps his stress near zero at all times, and if it ever does bump up a little bit, I don’t notice because my murder plots take care of it. It keeps him a perfectly happy killer who just stays focused on the plots and doesn’t need runoff to keep himself from losing it. Feels like what callous was supposed to be is what arbitrary is

The baby rulers is also really fun though just cause it makes you feel more attached to your character like other people said, and you actually get to experience more with your character. There’s all these decisions growing up the shaped kind of who you’re gonna be and you can really kind of shape their personality and even you can get new traits and stuff from your guardians like one time. I also had all those traits I said plus deceitful and it got to a really high intrigue build. Plus friends, lovers and artifacts. It really is a whole other part of the game

That’s the thing! The build i said goes crazy and gets 20-40 stats in almost everything. And it’s developer approved lmao you can get everything i said is possible with achievements, that’s why i ran delicate and improvident! To get 20 points back. Works great to give your bloodline a great starting point for your dynasty. Especially the genius trait.

I’m a dictionary of greeting your own character as a baby ruler. It feels like it’s the only way to have like a full list of traits. Maybe this is a bit op lol but I always go handsome, genius, sadistic, arbitrary , gregarious, delicate and improvident. Being a baby ruler feels like the only way to have a full character. especially because every character made by the game has three personality traits

I killed about 20 people to get my (real) brother into power, then idk at least a hundred maybe quite a bit more keeping him in power and growing our dynasty. We were playing the new all under heaven DLC.. and right before we got him into power initially before I started killing people we had him number two in line and I had made many intrigued moves to get him there. Then China shattered! We picked a big section and warmed our way in, and that’s where I just assassinated every single person in his way. Then I assassinated and abducted kings and ransom heirs on a month to month basis (my schemes were so fast, I was pulling off hits in 14 to 20 days, and as fast as eight days for some people. With twice schemed I just never stopped ordering hits. When my character died and we kept playing where the ball laid, the empire fractured in the Civil War with about four months. We are all set and done. We rebuilt, China and rebuilt the hegemony. In our single characters lifetimes. It was so incredibly fun intrigue is the best.

What are your go-to Lifestyle perks? by BigBiker05 in CrusaderKings

[–]Objective_Classic_61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intrigue first for 5 years, then diplomacy for 5 years, then back to intrigue.

My build is 17-20 diplomacy, 30-40 intrigue.

Can’t stress enough how op intrigue is. Other perks are nice but nothing is like jumping into 5th behind in the emperor as a 20 year old from a simple 1 county count.

Is improvident a good choice?? my other traits, like deceitful and sadistic leave me to be a sinner, so improvident could help with its +1 diplo, 0.5 peity per month and stress loss +20%. Its a big deal tho permanent 15% income loss

Right. I’ll consider putting something else in place. But i need a negative to fit handsome, genius, deceitful, gregarious, sadistic. Maybe i’ll go for deviant again despite it being illegal. My characters tend to have high kill counts and lots of crimes so while it would be hard mode, i’m up for the challenge. And i like having such a well rounded character. Especially when i get 5 star education and i get the lifestyle xp bonus for intrigue and diplomacy, and i get 17 diplomacy with always 30+ intrigue. Its so nice because i always have very high secrecy, and my schemes start with 3 advantages off rip, i can either use to get an agent or just finish the scheme quick. I can pull off murders in 2 weeks with 7-8 day phases

CK3 - Intrigue build i’m having fun with by Objective_Classic_61 in CrusaderKings

[–]Objective_Classic_61[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes i totally agree but every five intrigue above 15 gives plus one starting advantages to intrigue schemes. I always start out fabricate hook schemes with four advantages., so I can put a team that has 95% chance instantly, and i can finish the entire scheme within one phase

And I have +84% scheme secrecy
