HTML Masters of Raana [v0.8.4.8 A1.1] [GrimDark]

I've done that, it was even tougher back when we only had six house slots plus the Arena.

Yeah it seems like a difficult option to try and start with unless you really go all in on the charm at character creation. I think I may try it pretty early this game so I picked Attractive rather than Melee master or Crafter this time but I still like Teen Subduer and Arouser for the final picks so I'm not starting with crazy high charm.

I'm not sure about doctor's kits, I think you might have a slave with a high medicine in the first slot or something. I vaguely recall something like that. This character has not had the benefit of any doctor's kits, I had to take my lumps. As I was so late getting to the Medicine books I simply forgot about them and never trained any of my girls in that. That's something else I can still do with this character.

Yeah the medical skill thing was one of my worries there as well. If my main is the one that gets taken down but he does have high medical skill is that good enough? Or do I need to train someone like Caitlyn up in combat and take her with me so she can patch me up? The problem with that is she's a HORRIBLE fighter initially. She does at least make a good quartermaster so I guess she'd work eventually but it would be a LONG road getting her combat skills trained up enough to actually be relevant.

I only sell weapons to get to my goals in the beginning. That's Combat Armor, then Duraplate and finally the Roo and Walton investments. Nowadays I wait on Aria, I want to tame her quickly and there's other options for the Arena, more now since recent additions.

Yeah I think with the Valkrie available immediately and the katana chick with the Space Hulk available for free a bit later as well I don't see a reason to get Aria immediately. The only problem is I'll probably end up having to sell 1 or both of them before I can get Aria if I pick them up for the arena.

I've not ventured into religion. I've been kind of biding my time as it shakes out to see what I'm getting into before I take the leap of faith. I'm awfully tempted to take AEsir worship, but human sacrifice squicks me. Someone on the Discord asked why the slaves he kept donating didn't seem to add to the faction size...talk about naive! Maybe I'll take it and obviously not send any slaves there but to the Fort instead.

I do think the religion effects open up some interesting strategies, especially if you convert all your girls.

Yeah other than the stamina benefit from Christianity I really haven't played with it much either yet. From a long term perspective I think it makes the most sense to save your favorite religion for last and do Atheism 2nd to last to cap your willpower right before moving on to the endgame religion. But that's a REALLY long time horizon. Both Aesir and Christianity have pretty nice near term benefits while Atheism offers basically nothing for a LONG time.

I may actually try going with zero top tiers this game and focus on slave trading and prostitution for awhile since I've never really messed with that much yet. I can still do the tier 1-5 bounties but would have to skip the tier 6.

Yes, I recall training up Caitlin in combat was a long grind. She had real trouble training (wasn't a Brawler either) in my Silver Tongue run, so she got to her present 89 mostly by crits. These days however you can put stealth armor on her and let her snipe away risk-free with a rifle. If you have three coilgun-bearers or better you don't need her to hit, just survive and get trained through crits, maybe get Warrioress points too. Dakota and Lovisa both became Warrioress through combat. Don't forget the two battles at the Arena either, you can take anyone there and they'll never get a scratch on them if you can take down the enemy in a few rounds like anyone should be able to.

I don't think Caitlin needs training in medicine to operate the doctor's kit, I think she starts with enough if I'm remembering correctly about this.

Pai's little teen bitch is another good fighter available early that's good Arena meat in the very beginning.

If you play long enough and blow all over Tori and Cersei's cute little faces and play poker at Dockgraves you don't really need much help getting to 80 WP.

Yeah if she can actually use doctor's kits on the MC then I don't care how long it takes for me to train her up. Having your quartermaster in combat with you gives other bonuses as well so would definitely be worth it, especially for a run where you're not doing top tiers. MC takes all the damage, Caitlyn fixes you up.

Ok I think the widely different experience some people are having with control probably is just random events. Just noticed this in my new game. Day 8 and already at 54 control. And the event I just got while sleeping boosted it by 12 just now.

 

[McLOVINu]

I sort of don't want them to do away with re-spawning mobs, they a good cash source;...
unless there are new just as easy ways to earn money @ game start?

 

[teedghj94]

GD does! Over on Discord.
Sorry I shouldn't make fun of your request, this is after all the sort of question this forum is originally for. But I doubt you'll get much support for your request in this thread. Many of us are paying supporters, and it is in our interest (the way I see it at least) to have more paying supporters. Enabling GD to spend more time on development is really paying off for me.

LMFAO didnt need all that but thank you for it anywho

Yeah I prefer to have plenty of things to fight as well personally. One option that might be a good way to tweak things to suit different playstyles might be to have these control events offer some sort of choice.

For instance instead of just randomly gaining 12 control or whatever maybe you get an event with some sort of bandit uprising and you can choose to go personally deal with this bandit uprising or ignore it. If you go deal with it yourself you have to fight them and then you gain control. If you ignore them then you lose control.

Hmmm, is this a bug or am i missing something? I can't capture more than 4slaves at a time. Once I get 4 captured, I get message saying I'm full even though capture slave slots 5 and 6 are empty.

Do you have a full party? You can only hold a max of your party + 1. So solo you can hold two captures, and with four followers + the MC you can hold six. If you do have a full party it might be bugged.

Thanks. No, I didn't have full party. I'll try that.

My corruption is going the wrong way too, church chimed in with a nasty -5, plus a couple others that lowered it. I want to be able to walk my shameless naked sluts down the street in peace, is that asking too much?

According to the church in your game - yes

 

[Darkace]

so no one has an old version .8.1.4 or 8.1.3 html doc? can dld

 

[Mr. Jekyll/Hyde]

Could someone inform what I'm doing wrong when I try to capture Mae, I make sure that the last hit is with the whipping cane like suggested in the wiki but she dies every time?

You playing public or Tiered version?

I don't think capturing slaves in combat is available on the public version yet.

oh ok, thank you for telling me.

I had heard a few people mention the storm child before and not really paid much attention to it but finally got her today. From what I understand she's guaranteed to be the first slave up for auction the first time you visit an auction house so it's probably a good idea to snag this girl as soon as you can. I assume she always has the storm child trait and that her other stuff is randomized. Pretty low starting skills, but that storm child perk... Nice.

Heh, looks like she's pretty much guaranteed to become a Nympho if you want to max her Intelligence too.

Sigh. Now I have to figure out how to make room for her.
