a quick simple tip, ungroup your followers everyday before midnight and make sure they are on guard duty + captain, so that they can defend against the attacking bandits
Roger. I'm using that auto unassign setting but I only have like 3 guards atm so they are still swarming the place in four times out of five.

I did get some decent revenue from hunting. Gonna try gemstones and gold next. Combat is still too hard except for the easiest of fights.

What I would do is hire an expensive merc like Ayden or Felix, take Bud, Jack or Loren, or maybe the Cultist Monk, give them whipping cane, and just go on a capturing spree. Whipping cane last hit is guaranteed capture on all enemies that can be captured, which means if you encounter a group of four, that's four possible captives. Selling around two to three captives even in quicksell already covers Ayden's, Bud's, Jack's, or Loren's daily upkeep. Cultist Monk is a convict so $0 salary. With a hulking merc like Ayden who has WEGA armor and high enough stats that advance tactics enemies will prioritize him, capturing is made easy and I can go for multiple fights a day, so I may be spending a lot to pay Ayden daily, but he brings me so much more money in return. Note that with Dying World, his ammo pack will be disabled, but that's okay. He just needs to hit bandits with his whipping cane powerstrike. Bud, with enough Affection, will retain his Ammo Pack even at <9 prosperity situations. You will eventually earn enough money and influence, that with a $25,000 loan from the Crystal Heights bank, you can build a workshop. After which, workshop manufacturing will make sure you will not lack for money.

I could also get 30 points in the Divine Juices in Raikan, enough to open the first quest/rumor there which makes Connor available for hire in Warrior's Hall, hire Connor, take his weapon and duraplate armor away, fire Connor, and now I have duraplate armor.

Ayden is already ready for the quartermaster title stats-wise when you get him so make sure he is not an active follower at midnight. He can be Captain of the Guard and Quartermaster.

Do not forget to hire a nurse. Aiko is good starting one. Give her the nurse title and, since she will probably be your solo nurse for a time, do not give her any other job.

Do try the gemstone route. Test it to see if it is viable enough for an early run. I keep saying I will test it but real life keeps getting in the way the whole year. I am a whole lot happier but I also have a whole lot less free time.

I would push back the Dengi Invasion in the game settings page 3 to around 2000 days to be honest. You will not be ready on time.

Raana vets, I need help on a religious question for my run.

I am assuming the Westside Abbey Catholic Church is part of the Christianity faction, are the buffs like +25% chance modifier(seal of virtue) active on the player or just the girls sent there?

And are there any questlines or random events spawning from doing so?

Yes it's the Catholics and yes it's just the girls sent there.

From doing what? Activating the buff or sending a girl there?

There is a random day-end event that may increase the corruption of all girls sent to the abbey. That's about it, IIRC.

Anyone figure out how to raise beauty above 90 yet? One of the new girls had a trait called "superficial" that had an interaction bonus for 80+ player beauty, but also one for 100+, and the attractive player trait now also bumps your possible maximum up to 120, so...

Plastic surgery, man.

It used to raise Charm up to 85, now it just raises beauty up to 120 (if attractive).

The real question you should be asking is how you're going to raise Charisma in a fresh game now.

edit: Also, in case you haven't looked at her traits in a while, Adrienne should also have Superficial now.

Is there a way to raise MC CHA?

Michelle got it in my "update" game. :-(

You can gain Charisma by going on the $30 dates & tell them jokes with your NPC's.. i'm shore ive seen it pop up quite a few times for me.. EDIT

wiki says Increase Charisma:
  • By interactions while working at The Assembly plant (cap: 70).
  • By interacting at Divine Juices (cap: 70).
  • By carousing at Dockgrave Tavern (cap: 90).
  • By dancing at Furry's Tavern (cap: 100).
  • Through critical rolls during Seduction of an NPC (cap: 100).
  • By taking NPCs to the diner and telling jokes x10 times (cap: 110).
for NPC
If talking about NPC's 15% chance of increasing Charisma (once per day) if NPC works at Nika's clothing store in Westside (cap: 60).
15% chance of increasing Charisma (once per day) if NPC works at The Golden Dragon in Emerald City if her Happiness is 60+ (cap: 80).

There's also the new Educator option, which hasn't updated to the wiki yet.

After the new educator system, is there a efficient way to train NPC's discipline?
Several.
Make her a maid, equip her with a maid dress, and ensure your head maid is highly disciplined.
Assign her to a high-discipline Educator with the dominant option turned on.
I believe the riding lessons are still available but I've never used them.

Guard training is still the fastest with a good captain, capping at 80.
How to assign NPC to be slave trainer
Replaced by Educator. Click Educator, click the (i) beside Educator to set the template, click (i) to understand each template, go to Houserules page 2 to assign trainees to an educator.
Did Robard want to do some ritual with Lovisa and Tori?
Who knows. Tori seems to think so but it is open-ended until any future quests clear it up

The amount they pay you goes up as their faction power goes up, and faction power goes up as you keep donating to them.

The people with those kinda incomes are thousands of days into their games, probably.

I know, but it is so miniscule like 1million = probably less than 100 income/day. Which is again how in the world they achieve that other than investing billion to them first, lol.
