Female characters get the short end of the stick - have a much harder time joining factions and getting nobles to take them seriously. That way you get the loot AND the gold reward.Īs far as character build thoughts: starting as the child of a noble is the easy route - will let you join a faction right away as a male character.
In fact, if you're wandering around and happen to stumble on a hideout, don't attack it right away - trawl around in the local castles and cities until you find a local lord who asks you to take care of it. If a noble asks you to track down a bandit hideout, that's BIG money, but make sure to bring enough forces to do the job - if you fail to win the battle, the hideout is gone, and no reward for you.
As a general rule, delivery jobs suck (low pay for a long trip), anything to do with cows sucks, caravan escorts aren't bad, bandit hunting is very profitable. They give you some higher-tier soldiers right away, but they're more expensive than soldiers you've trained yourself.īetween bouts of killing bandits, stop in at towns and villages and always talk to village elders (in villages), guildmasters (in cities), and nobles (in cities, castles, or around the world map) and ask them if they have any jobs. I don't actually recommend hiring mercenaries from the tavern.
Steppe raiders and whatever the desert area bandits are are all mounted, so avoid them until you've got some cavalry of your own. Forest, Taiga, and Mountain bandits aren't to bad, though they have bows (which can be tricky - bring a decent shield). You can also spar with your soldiers at a training grounds to give them XP and train them up past their "useless unarmored farmer" stage.įrom there, hunt bandits.
After that, find your nearest training grounds and spar until you finish the training thing (will get you used to how melee combat works, and you should hit level 3 by the end of it). Warband has a very short quest line at the beginning to get you used to how the game works, and is worth doing.
