Extensive save scumming.

No way to train Malevolent, AFAIK.
Ok figured as much. So Malevolent is one of the only useful random traits you can't actually train now. Don't actually want it on most people but Cassius, Truls, Aaron, etc definitely become a bit more badass if you make sure they get it. Also from what I can tell Paragons refuse to train under an educator so ironically non paragons might have a higher max threshold as far as training up specific perks, although most of the paragons already have a decent list of perks to begin with.

Also didn't notice that the base chance on educators is heavily influenced by intelligence so add that to the list to really max out a trainer. Definitely more of a long term project. Will definitely have to prioritize getting that mine boss. He seems like the only potential trainer that pretty much already has it all.

Intelligence is literally half the base skill, so yeah, pretty important.

The Stormchild and Luckie were popular Slave Mistress candidates if you got Workaholic on them, since they have really high intelligence anyways.

In the new system I guess it depends on what you're using them for. I use Luckie as intelligence and discipline trainer.

Yeah although neither of them gets the age bonus unless it's a long game and you don't give them revital til they age up. Doyle is probably the best early game option for int trainer, although he's not guaranteed workaholic unless you save scum him.

The Stormchild is still better than most trainers under 35 y/o. 120 intelligence gives +10 to the base rate over 100 int, -5 for being <21 for an overall +5. Being 35+ only give +10 so just left her age a couple of years and she's as good as that and the only thing that limits her acquisition is the weather and money. No risky combat where you might accidentally kill her and no quest you need to find.

Just get her asap and then turn her into one of your combat posse and train that Fame for even more bonus to Education

All that matters is what traits she has as you can train pretty much everything now

Oh I'll definitely pick her up asap, but in my games she usually starts with closer to 60 int. It takes a long time to fuck her to 120 especially if you start with 20 copulation. Lucky is a good option but she's not available til you get 10k influence unless you really start off as a combat monster. The scorpions are kind of a tough nut to crack the first month. In any case with all the training options under educator now I think it makes sense to have kind of a rotating group of trainers anyway with some of them actually serving as trainers while your backup trainers are actually being trained by your primary trainers.

I do think the new educator system is a lot more interesting than the old slave master system. I wonder if mentally challenged gets a penalty to the educator int training or just the academy? I always feel bad just making poor Rifle Savant a bouncer in my tavern or something instead of training him up to be a proper scavenger like I used to.

Just hired him there seems to be no educator penalty for Mentally Challenged in the educator menu

Some news about the inadecuated depletion rate of the Dengi Marauders in the Dengi invasion.

I have talked about this subject in previous posts

https://f95zone.to/threads/masters-of-raana-v0-8-4-1-a18b-grimdark.100207/post-16491479

And i ended with

First conclusion. Defeating a Dengi Marauder Enemy POI makes nothing. In the 17 days run I have one day with zero combats, and one day with 12 combats. Result? 74 losses the day of 0 combats, 72 losses the day of 12 coabats. it never mind if the MC stay at home banging slaves or if he is in the field banging Dengis.

Second conclusion. Either the -10 of the City Power or the -10 of the Aesir Faction don´t work properly.
Well, I can confirm that the -10 depletion factor of the Aesir faction works right. I have had a -50 power event and in the two days that takes me to bring the faction to 1.000 the Dengi depletion went down from 70-75 to 60-65. so the main culprit of the Dengi depletion going wrong it´s the "City power 15000. -10" not going right.

And a piece of advice. Don´t Corrupt Nicole

. In order to Nicole and her Press office being Rebel her Corruption need to be under 40. Well, the power of the press it´s a big factor in this fight. It´s hard to get "City Control 90", and Nicole being Rebel have been invaluable at this regard. Not only City Control 90 give a very nice -20 to the Dengi Depletion, but also, if you in the interrogation sign near the 90 control score you get

2025-03-20 00.13.20  d32390a0b94a.png

the +50% Skiguard Regeneration it´s something of great effect. In 11 days the skyguard should loss 1650 troops, but the real losses have been only 1100. That´s a recruitment of roughly 50 per day, that makes a lot of difference in this atrition war.

but still, the big factor missing it´s the no implementation of the -5 per Dengi POI defeated.

You know if you just upgrade her press office you can force her politics, right?

It is one of the most brought up topic in discord. There are no ways right now in the game to view log changes except by sleeping before midnight.
So if you sleep after midnight:
Everything happens but you just cant read the log?
Or do some stuff happens like money or influence or food but something else doesnt happen?
Do household members gain skills and happiness/affection? Get affected by a captain? By an educator? Do slaves escape?

How do u switch follower position? It's a pain in the fking ass. I have to remove them all, then pick the right order. But if I save that lineup it just gets saved in alphabetical order so the next time I call that group, it is wrong order again.

Do they all have to be free? Like not doing any other job?
If they are making another job they have a penalty (-20, IIRR), but they can still be educated
-20 penalty for holding another job while being educated, except if it's an "away" assignment like Foreman, Arena, the Abbey, then it's -999.

AFAIK everything happens, you just can't read the log. Slave escapes and other events requiring decisions will still occur in the sleep window.

I'd also like to know. Cuase you wouldwant the people that are gonna capture to be the last ones to hit, so order it's important. But switching position is not consistent, and I dont see how you can switch your position besides being the first one, which I dont like cause I like building the MC with manhunter and capturing slaves.

Is is "The Last Relative" quest in WIP ?? Because I cannot find anyway to do the next step. Stacey McClung shows no option to go with me to do the quest.
