Your archer knockback shot does more damage than basic bow attack (which is also knockback). This is important only if min-maxing, since you have 100% crit every 3rd shot. Better to use red knockdown ability for increased crit dmg. :) You can equip your swordsman with a 2h sword for cleaving rats. I did this with 3 cleavers (axe, mace, sword, all 2h), 2 archers, 2 rogues. Basically same strat as you, archers taking down growths, rogues supporting them, while 3 cleavers took care of all the rats at spawner
Hey man I just came here to tell you and i know it's been like 5 months since but thanks for the minecraft dungeons videos I do really miss them that's you are what got me back into it. So it would bring a smile to me and possibly many other people if you return but I respect your decisions and keep the content up!
you should wait until your level 5 that's when the archer gets the barrage attack - archers and rangers should be valorous victory your archer should get you several temp valor points per turn. teach as many people heal as possible. your rangers/ mine move 18 to 20 are strategist's with the dagger throw at level 5 with a torch they can take out an out growth in a turn and leave as the poison pool( sometimes doesn't disappear until the start of the next round). they leave and are immediately healed by the partner. attack during the morning the rats become feral when the sun goes down. burning outgrowths will take damage at the end or beginning (not sure which) of every round so even if the growth is down to a few points you can just let it burn. Don't bring animals with you they increase the amount of rat's and will get plagued, bad if your fattening up some boars. A larger party near the brood mother will draw more spawn. leaving you 2 man crews with less to deal with.
For my squads taking out the outgrowth, I generally try to outrun the spawning rats instead of killing them. Bear is great for this task since it can double its own movement and take out growths quickly. The other squad uses a horse to give everyone around it double movement. Archers are generally lower movement units in my party and their burst damage isn't high enough to both destroy a growth in a single turn and outrun the pack.
A good way is to use 2h weapons in all characters that can wield them and put them close to each other so all rats respawn close. That way you can kill them with AOE and not chase them around. Send 1 archer and thief with 14 movement is ideal to go around and kill the tower. Thief with torch and the skill of poison bomb that way you doing 25% dmg power turn and move to the next tower. 5% from poison and 20%from fire and your archer can heal the thief from poison and kill any rats that respawn close to them or help do a lil dmg to tower. I farm 299 rats you can stay and kill way more but i got bored. Had 2 archers(one with sniper shot and the other with the 3 shots to stay with the big group killing rats) 3 2hs characters and 2 thief with torch.
Hi mate! First of all thx for your wartale videos and guides, they helped me a lot. I just wanna know of you find better Recoil shot or Barrage for archer, i mean overall not only for rat infestation quest. Ive seen more ppl using Barrage than Recoil shot, but i trust more on you😅 Thx!!
Thanks! Appreciate you stopping by to say hi and share your thoughts ^^ tbh imo Recoil shot is much more reliable and has so many more uses + is cheaper so easier to use. From kiting strong enemies 1v1 with archers to shooting enemies into traps and/or into annoying spots with smart positioning can be game changing (and lots of fun) while that barrage is just a situational poor AoE if you ask me, which doesn't always work. It can be great on bigger squads, while they only make fights too long when you decide to go with such bigger companionships (only makes battles last forever, so I prefer going with smaller ones). Cheers
Best way to kill the rat mother without any cures.....i had 2 rangers around lvl 4 at the time and a lvl 4 archer. They basically knocked out her entire hp bar in that first round with only the tank ever getting attacked. None contracted the plague and i had no need for a cure. Advice? Just gun for the rat mother and try to ignore the little ones....maybe place someone with aoe in front of the largest mass just in case. Otherwise the quicker you kill her the better.
It is not, but its a influence machine, there is a ability that give u 50 influence when destroying rats nest, and that influence can get u to negotiate more gold/reward for bounty
I can usually destroy 3 outgrowths in the first round, then depending on the location 2-3 more on round 2. Then I kill the mother, I don't need to get all 6 or 7 infestations. So I never stay more than 2 rounds. That way you will probably not get anyone plagued. So I definately don't use archers on the outgrowths. I use the rangers and berserker etc.
Yes, it seems to be a LIMITED supply, to make pristine essence. Haven't finished the game yet, so I could be wrong. But I cheated using Cheat Engine, gave myself 2 million krowns, 2 thousand of anything (iron ores, white leather, wheat, salt, grimsteel, etc.).
Unfortunately yes, so you should try to get the best out of the Rat Infestation events - get as many as possible and be not too easy on them when crafting
@@04AMofficial Yes, it's what I've tought. Problem is when you level up and need to change your weapon, than you lose your Oil. Seems that the game should have a way to extract it or at least get more resource to make it.

Fire bombs are also useful for burning chaos as well as the pryo bows are useful as well.

Rats give cheese if you catch them. Like a skill

So it would bring a smile to me and possibly many other people if you return but I respect your decisions and keep the content up!
Thanks, appreciate it! Yea, the game development kinda halted and i kinda wanted to do some different things as well. Who knows in the future!

You forgot to tame an army of rats on region locked so they can be your cannon fodder and find you loads of cheese.

Doesn't seem like you actually made any money from this. You spent more on plague cures than you got for a reward.

The Ratses are coming back 04AM!
Oh yes! There will be more of these bad boys in the future ^^
Are Plague Infected Outgrowth Samples a finite resource?
