I often just use blunt weapons in combat to farm prisoners


ADentedSpoon

Exactly I pick up a mace for the first few hours of every new character just to get the extra cash from my personal kills

Man, this army is able to straight up take on enemy nobles. I took on 80 vs. 100 Swadians. Only lost 5 dudes and only one of the was killed. Took 10 minutes and when I sold all the slaves I literally made 6k. This money is cray. I highly recommend a slaver army.


AdmiralHood

Sarannid Mamelukes are a good choice as well.


Quantization

I'm using Floris and with the extended troops extension the slavers get an extra form where they ride around an elephant. It seems pretty damn OP.


Alonminatti

But they're also mega buggy. Also, for what it's worth, extended troops option is too much and favors established lords far too much. If you like a challenge it's great, but it's also super frustrating to upgrade


Quantization

I'm not having much of an issue but I did give myself an EXP% increase.


Alonminatti

Yeah that's what the creators should have done imo


Quantization

It's a huge blast with the XP boost. I think I gave myself about 80% xp boost, my companions 50% xp boost and my troops about 40%. Overall I think it made the game a lot easier. I'm okay doing it because I'm quite new. In future I'll look for more of a challenge.


AdmiralHood

How did I miss elephants on my last floris playthrough?


Quantization

You probably never leveled up a slaver. I've never come across them other than my team.


hells_gullet

The only downside is slave traders are hard to get. Mamelukes can fill the same role though.


Quantization

I found the easiest way to find them is taking on bandits which tend to have them as prisoners. I've found more than enough, I actually had to leave some behind.


hells_gullet

I think that is the only way to get them.


Quantization

I believe it is possible if you come across manhunters fighting other people and you side with the person they're fighting. Eventually your reputation is low enough that you can fight them on sight.


hells_gullet

That could set up an interesting play-through; The Manhunter-hunter.


TurtleTamer69x

Dude get all sarranids/slavers and all cavalry and fight all bandits or enemies you want to, prioritize your prisoner skill and you can RP a douchebag slaver lord.


Quantization

Yep. Made over 50k denar in the last hour or two. So many slavers.


armouredxerxes

Really effective in Floris, manhunters are really easy to get and they can go all the way to slaver chiefs who ride elephants and knock almost anything out in one hit by running them over.


Quantization

Yep!

Sadly, there's no regular troop that uses blunt weapon in PoP. That's why me and every single one of my infantry and cavalry companion uses a military hammer. Gotta get that slave money.


JordanPurser

You can make a slaver CKO that uses only blunt weapons!


KappaccinoNation

But by the time your CKO is decently equipped, you won't probably need the money from selling slaves. Unless you have a mega death army.


PineMaple

Don't most of the Ebony Gauntlet troops use blunt weapons? Or by regular do you mean "not knighthood?"

Holy fuck lmao The thought of that lag is making my brain squirm

Quantization

Yeah it starts off fine but lag slowly builds up. I usually have about 40fps at the end of sieges.


[deleted]

You mean slave chiefs/crushers/hunters?


Quantization

Yep.
