The Duncan route is ok, though I don't know how it ends. You will definitely get a lot more fighting, but you'll also want to have a lot of money.

[@dtly50]

It ends... sad especially for high virtues.

[@AmosDohms]

@@dtly50 Not surprised. Given how Duncan is trying to install himself as the new lord when you go down the Earl and Prince route, I was expecting something like that.

[@Arcaani]

Glorious will Virtuous Peasant be! Edit after getting two minutes in: But maybe poor too.

[@TortugaPower]

Virtuous Peasant #2, I think that's his name.

[@Kneecap22]

Join the revolution comrade!

[@agentiq007]

Well the blacksmith shop definitly gets you more then the other two and i imagine you can get more orders as the alchemist since craftsmen is all about lether. It probably is worth it to open all 3, and get that reputation bonus to 50 or 60 by the end. And i would have to rewatch the episode and run the numbers but i would say the craftsmen workshop might have gotten you those 80 florins back. I doubt you made much profit from it tho Well, now im tempted to boot up the game and try my luck as a peasant or a merc since as it turns out, my random start character definitly doesn't have the stats to make it as a knigh

[@dtly50]

@@agentiq007 merc might be easier than peasant. At least to win.

Just did the Duncan plotline in my own run but sadly died neared the end of it. I won't spoil it but if you expect a more robin hood plotline that doesn't last long. The Duncan plot is built for a run that left Cambri with no skills outside fighting and would rapidly become broke in the main return to England as a peasant plot. The Duncan run is something I recommend you do in you free time off-screen or on a stream as it is mainly fights with trash foes and quite a bit of heavy crossbow enemies that can pierce plate. Lastly there is very little choices and interesting characters in the plotline, It is mainly filled with callbacks to other england stories I'm not sure you have seen yet. So accept the offer at your own peril.

[@Arcaani]

@@Lasttemplar1612 Good take! I hope Tortuga decides to revisit the Duncan thread after a more successful run in England.

[@TortugaPower]

I have now finished this Season, recording-wise. So I expect I can stream exactly that!

[@toastedsnow7982]

Highly unlikely that the scale armour can be stacked. If you *read the item card,* you'll notice that all the armours you can stack - in other words, use in the crafting system - have the line right under their item name in the top left corner, "Usable in Crafting." Scale armor does not have this line. Thus, I'd hazard that you cannot use it in crafting and thus, cannot stack it with other armour.

[@TortugaPower]

Thanks! I hadn't picked that out. In my next test run (after this), I'll put it to the test. ALthough that doesn't solve things entirely, as even two craftable ones may not be combined if they are the same layer (like mail + hauberk)

[@toastedsnow7982]

@@TortugaPower Aye, for those cases, I've found that "fits viewpoint of the general public" is almost always correct. Basically, what the average Joe on the street would say. So for, say, mail and fauld, the generic conclusion would be "both are armor, so you can't put one over the other" (even though, historically, it was very common to have additional armour over mail). I'd be willing to bet that almost all metal body armour falls under the same layer - at least, I haven't found any exceptions so far

[@sootaboz8890]

Hey man! Your vid got recommended to me and I have been binging the last 6 episodes of this game and loving it, looks like a very fun game so I'm hoping to learn more about it from watching you.

[@TortugaPower]

The YT algorithm has looked with favor upon me. Great game, a bit unknown for how fun it is. Enjoy!!

[@richardprivate5568]

Say no

[@ajmax5152]

If there is a possible route such that will get you to earn a title try to go for that. Maybe there will be an opportunity to join your Earl from the France campaign.

[@TortugaPower]

I'm hoping to end up back with the Earl from this storyline. Not sure it's possible. This is a virtuous run, after all!

[@KingChosenZen]

I don't know about the Duncan route. You might get fucked over You Might as Will stick to the route you're on rn

[@jaywerner8415]

Hunting Sword, plus Hunting Knife, Plus Huntsman can get you like 70 ish Gold each time you go Scavenging, not to mention you get ALOT of leather (Like 8 I want to say). It is pretty lucrative actually since you can easily craft leather into other more valuable/useful things. Herbsmen and a Empty Vial can help you find Healing/Poison herbs while Scavenging.

Join the rebellion

[@augustinadriancristea5873]

Duncan is the Hard Way, brother! You will sleep on the ground, without luxuries and have to give LOTS to the cause. Better to wait, make some more money then go with the Army Recruiter, it will bring some surprises ⚔️🔥♾️

[@TortugaPower]

I made my choice, Ep 7 tmrw, but I'd like to come back and try it another time.

[@mustard4194]

Duncan route makes you feel kind of disgusted with yourself once you make it to the end. Do not recommend it from a narrative standpoint.

[@KingChosenZen]

@@mustard4194 I just realized something Is duncan a Bandit Leader or something

[@marystar1924]

Might want to get better shield coverage. You will get murdered by crossbows. I died like that with a godlike character who had the same shield as you. ;)

[@TortugaPower]

Good tip, thanks!

[@Tyr1001]

I get the impression that the game is trying to punish you for breaking the french merc narrative it usually places you in. add to that the simply unfair economy it imposed, it seems like there's an obvious "correct" choice with duncan. It also makes me wonder what it could possibly have you do if you decline. Like, what could the game possibly be if you refuse an offer you can't refuse? To that end I'm much more interested in the refusal route than taking what seems the "easy out" route

[@TortugaPower]

Then I have some good news for you... :)

[@jaywerner8415]

Seriously.... the game just TAKES all your money? I Call BULL@#$%! Bruh we just came back from a War, a Hero no less, you should at least be able to keep SOME of the money. Your Virtuous Peasant is certainly starting to look like a badass now. Dabbed in chainmail and light Plating with an AXE to grind.

[@TortugaPower]

Yeah I think this run is very strong. But not sure we're in the right storyline for his skills!
