Does AI use perks too ?

[IngeniusSoul]

Hi.

I just would know if the AI is himself able to unlock and benefit of perks as we do. By perks, I mean the bonus we unlock in each skill tree (Leadership, trade, charm, etc....).

Thank you.

Yes

My high trade companion is making around 1800k denars.
The 0 trade companion makes around 700 tops.

I was more meaning about perks like able to convert bandits into normal troops, the perks trees u have inside each skill you know ?

You should assume that of a perk is broken for you as a player, it is also broken for the NPC.

I do believe disciplinarian is broken for example.

That doesn't answer my question : is AI able to use this ?

If it isnt broken, then it should be usable, assuming they use them in the proper role.

For example, a perk that says "(party leader)" in the description shouldn't work when they are a member of your party. It should work if they are leading their own party.

I think for a difinantive answer you need a modder or Dev that has looked under the hood to see what AI lords can do currently.
In general, mount and blade games try to build and treat the AI lords the same as the player character as much as possible so we would expect them to have access to the same abilities and bonuses players do.

AI's "party" perks will effect the entire party to include the party you're leading. So if you get 3 companions with "Party" Perks that give +2 troops per companion that adds 6 troops to your total troops in your party.
