questing idea for 3.0 (yes, i checked the list!)

[akuthia]

So, instead of making us run around pendor, trying to find the lord that gave us a quest, we could turn it in to his steward, instead/aswell?

I checked, and unless I am blind (which there is a good chance of) this is not on there....

From a normal point of view - good idea for 3.0.

But considering the fact, that my only way of interaction with enemy lords is the interaction of my lance and their lover- never see those quest.

PS: Said a little bit of a lie) Of course  I use quest, but only in the first week of the game and only one type of them: "gather the taxes for me".  Its a formidable for the start, because you get like 8000 coins for nothing (especially, if you do not intend to give them to the lord, like I do) Saves you from robbing the poor robbers for 10 coins.

PPS: someone should definitely put it in the wiki as a good source of money)

PPPS: the other quests suck (in financial way)

so, how do you get vassals as the almighty ruler of pendor, if you're not capturing other lords that like you? just from the share of lords when you rid a faction from the face of pendor?

 

[etoManiak]

who said I am not capturing lords?)

Capturing them means making my spear acquainted with their liver anyway)  Just hack them and tell "you fought well my future vassal. go in peace and come quickly back, so I can get my +5 relation with you as soon as possible". And you need no quests to do that.

PS: A came to Pendor to claim it all, not to do the courier boy jobs)

PPS: by the way, who invented the bull sit with the 15-10(capturing)=5 relation necessary for recruiting?)

5 dosent work for me. (tried on dozens of lords)
6- didnt manage to catch this exact number.
7 works.

maybe it depends on something like leadership or persuasion, even if everyone denies this?
leadership=2
persuasion=1

 

[noosers]

Nope. Relies only on relation with the Lord. Which is, as you have most splendidly noticed, 7 after capture. It used to be a bit lower, thus the old treshold of 15/5.

 

[etoManiak]

thanks again)

PS: curse on those advisers, who last time played PoP on Christmas))

 

[noosers]

Christmas last year?

Recruiting Lords wasn´t possible in 1.21

Persuasion is needed in a few Lord Quests, upon recruiting prisoners and as related skill for the church buiilding series (if I recall correctly).

 

[SCGavin]

Is this thread still correct for 2.5 (fixed the 15/17 relationship value)?

 

[noosers]

@SC: Yup. The only thing that was changed was the raise of the lower limit. Which is still too low, if you ask me But I  am not the deciding factor there.
