Hello,
I have recently started playing and taking advantage of this content and I can say that I like it very much. It's been leveling up my ROG skills and providing some decent perks! It has also been improving relations with other lords/clans a great deal. I reached 100+ relations with some clans...not sure what it really does or mean, but it looks like a whole bunch of people like my MC quite a lot.
My first few attempts at breaking Lords out of prisons were met with ignominious failures, I was quickly cut down by the guards!
The main problems were poor armor and inappropriate weapons. As far as the armor is concerned, there isn't much we can do about it, I got whatever my MC was allowed as a civilian. However, the main thing that made a huge difference was the weapon and the MC positioning.
My sword proved completely inadequate for enclosed quarters combat. With it's 100+ length, my sword would hit the wall, the low ceiling, columns and whatnot...same for the enemy, but when I got hit with the mediocre civilian armor...I was done.
So, I switched to shorter weapons. I tried a small axe, a falchion [sp?], and another short sword (I don't recall ATM the name). The axe, I didn't care for much. The falchion was much better and later on the short sword was the best.
The other thing I did was to choose the spot where I fought the guards. I thought to myself "if my swords hits the walls, their will do too" and it worked great. I trigger the guards then lure them to a doorway where I stand keep stabbing at them while the hit the walls, low ceiling and door jambs! I was able to stab and hit them in the face while I was practically just standing there receiving very few hits.
So since I figured it out, I've been breaking out people right and left.
