8 More Important Tips and Tricks For Medieval Dynasty

Medieval Dynasty is a three-dimensional simulator in the convention of action RPG with elements of survival and strategy created by Polish studio Render Cube. This is the second production of the Lodz team and completely different from its debut project: Monster League go-kart racing game from 2018. This time the Poles created a realistic production set in the Middle Ages, reminiscent of the Czech Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The game is also another part of the Dynasty cycle of Toplitz Productions, although clearly different from its predecessors.
This particular video is going to explain or show what i consider to be the eight absolutely most important things that you need to do/not do if you want to succeed in Medieval Dynasty. This list is in no particular order, but that is just because they are all so important.

Questions like “you look as beautiful as the sky today,” and “...nice weather....” are also seem to be tied to the in game weather. So if you use them when it’s raining or overcast they won’t like it.

[@Ghryst]

it also varies depending on the chick. they have different personalities. right now, all the local sheilas think im a creep and hate it when i ask about them "whats it to you?"

[@Nathrezim1453]

Mood right now is *only* determined by 3 factors : - Have enough wood and food. -Stone houses with daub. Better houses with better insulation = more mood. -Having children. More children = more mood. Nothing else at all affects the mood right now, not even the diplomacy perk. No food variety, no talking to them, no putting them on "jobs they enjoy/are good at" - all this means absolutely zero right now for their mood.

[@themauiwaui]

Very glad to see someone mentioning tip #5! Makes the game much more enjoyable. I'm not all that interested in the whole dynasty/settlement mechanics, so I've increased the days per season and been trying to automate as much as possible so I can focus on hunting/trapping and finding herbs.

[@Tha0x]

The longbow/recurve is by far the best hunting weapon in the game. I know it doesn't do as much damage as a stone/iron spear to wizent. But it does 1 shot headshot deer and wolves. It's also longer range and more accurate. I never have to chase a deer, or get close to a wolf. They don't get alerted and you can just bop 'em in the head and they go straight down. Makes hunting deer, and the late game wolfs quests super easy.

[@johnthebob1]

Also the spears are way too heavy.

[@theseustoo]

I've found that the pickaxe (even a stone one!) is the best weapon to use on wolves as they move around quite quickly and can easily dodge arrows and even spears! ;) PS: The pickaxe also works well on boars and badgers! :)

[@theseustoo]

@@johnthebob1 Not if you use the 'infinite carry' mode in the 'customise game' thingie... ;)

[@FREEDOM_33]

I have a trick some may already know. A minor one but I've tested this and it does work. When chopping down trees, if you get the fallen trees to fall on to each other you can clean the branches and chop into logs on both trees at once if you chop on the spot where they are laying on one another. Saves some time and axe building.👍

[@stephaniefuller262]

For the last tip about storing raw material in the resource storage. On multi-player with ny husband we maxed ours so we ended up building another one because we read that it'll recrease the storage limit by doubling it and it did. It is also connected between the two. By that if you look in one of the storages and then go to the other one you have the same things in that one too. Just to give those a heads up for those that may run out of room in their resource storage.

[@excaliburdemilich4224]

Your content Lord is a best content so far I have come across. I got so many ideas from your tips and tutorials. I have a city build of for the trading town got that from your 5 best location. Keep it coming.

For aesthetics: put up variety of fences on your way to villages or your journey that way your decorating the whole map. Drop planks 1 by 1 to look like some kind of walkway. Use tools, resources, etc for decoration in your town.

[@dartcze9316]

For the Quests, keep berries in your storage (not food storage), you can get mission to fetch berries in for example autumm. Or you can get mision to fetch daub if you do not have Goose building or you are not close enough. You will not have a chance to get daub...

If you fill your resource buildings beyond their limit your town's people will stop putting resources into them. Then, when the storage in their workstation fills up, they stop working. So, if you want to automate your settlement you need available storage space in the resource buildings.

Bows are slow but give a huge distance advantage. Don't discount them.

[@Emanemoston]

Thanks for the video.

[@Dare_To_Game]

You are welcome!

[@lliamthrumble]

Best hunting is the longbow, if you are actually hunting. Accuracy over distance and 1 shoting all prey animals makes it a winner for... hunting. Spears and crossbow are good for fighting, which isnt hunting

[@wayneledbetter2339]

longbow is far superior for hunting than spear. I can't imagine why anybody would think otherwise. You can one hit from a much farther distance. Never have a bear eat you.

[@NannyOggins]

I also prefer the longbow it has good damage and loads faster than the Crossbow. If you then pair it with poisoned iron arrows you have a deadly weapon. However, I always carry an iron spear for the times when a wounded animal rushes me or a couple of bandits surprise me.

Really need to update your tip videos for version 0.4

[@felixreali7101]

another great video. thanks for sharing this 🙂 question about storage: if you have a settler mining for you up in Branica (with a storage you built there), do the mined things automatically transfer to your storage in Gostovia too? Or do you need to actually go and collect them and bring them to your own settlement?

[@Dare_To_Game]

The storage is shared. I tested this afterwards, all the storages seem to be linked.

[@TheTaxxor]

You don't even have to build a storage up there(except for roleplaying reasons), villagers don't go there to store the things they gather, it just automatically transfers into your storage.

[@TheRasheghra]

Could you please make a farming video? All these fertilizing and buying seeds then running to home area is really tiring and time consuming. Can a villager do all these in a day if i assign one? Or will he/she got stuck if he doesnt have fertilizers on storages? Can he/she goes to nearby town to purchase the needs? (Think not.) Maan farming is hell. Please make a video of how you do all these yourself and with a villager for us to see. Thanks for all of your videos btw helped me greatly

[@becomingungovernable]

When it comes to hunting, rabbit, badger, fox, boar, or wolf, I just run up on them and hit them with the axe. I don't even bother with ranged weapons for small game. Ranged weapons are best for the faster animals like Lynx, deer, and moose. Wisent are combo range to start and melee after. Bear are ranged only. If the bear closes the gap, you die. So loose spear or arrow then run until the bear loses interest then double back and attack again until it dies.

[@Ixspar]

You can set the days in the season in the game settings. Also, fast crafting is highly recommended. If you assign a person to a weak job trait, they do learn and become better.

[@Shadowbot074]

I RP as a craftsman my first play thru. Finally to the point where all I do is build

[@sincere42O]

I'm fairly new to the game, playing on Xbox. When you're crafting the traps it looks like you either have the stuff on you and you just do it so fast that I can't see or are you somehow pulling your materials from your village storage? That's my biggest thing when I want to craft something I have to like run to the storage and get the stuff is there a way to craft and it automatically pull?

Wow so different from my game at 300 plus hours since full release I have 67 inhabitants 62 of a 65 building limit and use Longbow and crossbow almost exclusively with 99% one-shot kills. I am at city level development with only 18000 Rep and have stalls to sell off excess resources and food because my 7 storage buildings are always almost full and generally generate about 6000 coins per season on their own. Oh, I am also only in year 7. I do agree with the marriage, traps and roleplay tips also get through the main storyline quickly but doing any quests you can talk to villagers often generates new quests as well.

Press F to open details. on the right side you will now have 3 tabs of different ways you can interact with that building. Assign workers, tell the workers what you want them to work on, and just info about the building.

Is a longer season (more days in a season) making the game easier or harder? Comment with reasons please. I almost always play with a 7 day season but I got curious recently..

[@82aleca]

I don't know if it's easier or harder, but I play with 6 day seasons as I found 3 was far too short, and with how quickly food is gathered by hunter, winter was a cake walk... Now with 6/7 day seasons you really need a good stockpile to get by. I'm also not one who plays with gamey tricks like using unstuck etc and I tend to walk instead of run because it's just so damn purdy!

[@sinclairzerathul1143]

You can just place all the traps next to each other be it in or outside your settlement.. you can even put them all together next to your house and still get things trapped in there.

[@theseustoo]

On my second try at this game I got much further than the first try... this time I actually managed to build ten buildings, including 4 houses for villagers, but somehow still didn't manage to build a food storage unit... (it's not unlocked yet!) though I DID manage to build a resource storage shed and even a well... and even a barn! BUT although I can manage to keep my (6 or 7) villagers fed from hunting, I had (and am still having!) great problems with them complaining about no water. I'm also having a lot of trouble finding enough work for them to do... I have a couple of fruit trees and a hops garden, but haven't had time to prepare fields for farming as I'm too busy hunting and trying to increase my rep through doing 'story' quests. (I should say that I'm also 'cheating' by having the xp multiplier fully turned up and using the 'infinite carry' thing too, which IS a great help as it saves a helluva lot of time in gathering resources! I might turn it off when I get to know my way around the game a bit more!) I suppose I could put off the story quests a bit longer, but then my reputation would build much slower even with it turned up full... The problem with the thirsty villagers is particularly frustrating for me as the village is built right beside the river and I even built a well... and STILL they complain about 'no water'! I'd appreciate any advice you can give me on this matter as they seem to be on the verge of walking out on me, even though one of them is also almost ready for me to propose to her! (Around the 80% affection mark...) If I can't get it under control very soon, I'll probably have to start all over again... (so I'd appreciate a swift response to this post, please!)

[@macaronipengueni6461]

You need waterskins or buckets in your well chest. If I am not wrong you can just put buckets in your resource storage too. Then your well worker will going to fill them up and thats it happy villagers. You dont need to go and give every house a water bucket just wait and they 'll get them. and you can find buckets in any tavern

[@kaopointmanneil5862]

Your food AND water containers need to be in the food storage building. Everything else goes in the main storage. Buckets seem to work well.

[@allensmith342]

[@salkey3987]

YEET

[@Dare_To_Game]

YOTE.

[@johnthebob1]

dont really agree on some of those. spears are way too heavy so you cant carry much else. Traps are just an annoyance for me not enough point gain to be worth it, easier and quicker to just go for a hunt. Even better just let your hunter up your stats for you. there are only a few resoueces I dont sell wood, and any mined resourse but then again why would you the weight you can carry vs return, if somoene is doing that then they are def not clued in at all. Cant beleieve you lost your wife and all your villagers that sucks. That would take a huge effort. They just need food, firewood and house maintenance. If they dint get that a huge icon appears in the top right hand corner. My one big tip is dont change clothes between seasons there is no notification system to show you are nearly dead and there doesnt seem to be any downside to wearing your fur goods during summer. Dont bother with chickens and pigs they offer no benefit so far. in fact no animals help with the automation of the village at all as workers cannot collect water. I could go on.....

[@Tokashiza]

I asked a lady about her job and I got +5/+10, she was a hunter, so she loved it. She is my wife now, she can hunt, oo yeah!

[@jholcjholc]

just make sure you have firewood and food any food is fine they dont care what they eat. A fully upgraded simple house with daub gets them to 63% mood , married will give them 5% to mood. first child 5% to mood second child 5% mood you dont need good host or the biggest house simple house is just fine. Simple house fully upgraded, married with 2 children their mood will be 78%

[@NannyOggins]

You are wrong about one of these tips, asking folk whether they are enjoying their work can give you a good boost, it seems to work on crafts people very well, sowers, smiths etc. I also never do the night hunt quest because I’m rubbish at combat in the dark and always die, Just my own preference!

[@shukthy]

get yourself a longbow or recurve bow. can fire at them from 100+ feet away. keep firing at wolf when they run towards you. if they aren't dead with in 10 feet quick pull out your best axe and whack at it cause wood spears breaks easy.

[@johnmcelroy5804]

Last time I did that quest, you could start killing the animals before it even changes over to evening and they get counted toward the quest, also you can hunt the next day and finish the quest.
