Lets Build Kenshi - Gut

[@BlikeNave]

Legend for the F12 populate building tip!

Thanks! Saves a lot of time for sure 😀

Beak things aren't that bad. Their AoE attack hurts, and you can beat that by simply sticking 1 melee fighter on each beak thing (on 'block' mode if needed) and plink away with your crossbows! This might be a useful tip for the early game and for new players. When I found this out it made my life a lot easier. :)

[@unknownself-kenshi]

Great points! I should have mentioned these things for newer players, thanks for posting :) I might have a Nuzoran video where the squad trains on the beaks (but I have a soft spot from their help with the slave swarm). I ha e 2x squad and pop, bombardment settings, so with enough people, I'll be able to solo with each beak thing.

Or...you can use half a mil cats to buy the 'strange camp' guy out of slavery many many times (after they repeatedly enslave him just for being knocked out) and become friendly with the gutters faction.

Honestly I've found heavy armour makes them a joke though you need to be able to wear it

Good jod on the narration

[@unknownself-kenshi]

Thanks 😊. I'm looking at getting a better mic than my headset, as the sound editing process will be shorter.

I'm looking at that and the Shure MV7X.

[@allones3078]

How were the beak things lol.

[@unknownself-kenshi]

Beakys were docile at night, only one attacked me. The footrace one really was upset on the loss and tried to get his friends to wallop me, but I outran them for the waterside shots :P

Gut are a good place for endless amounts of meat and skin, but building a base takes nerve, I gave up after about 10 minutes 😂

[@unknownself-kenshi]

Gut can definitely be brutal. Build a shack, get some storage, and then build a shop counter. Put some basic meat, first aid kits in it, should attract caravans and others passing through. Sell hides and eggs to Heft and Heng (best to sell to anywhere with the most markup like a robotics shop). Get some mercs. Put up a couple of crossbows on a storm house, and you have a solid start.

@@unknownself-kenshi I didn't think to build the first log cabin, I always build the first one near defensive walls, but it happened to me that I had a wall built and they still went through it, or killed some monsters in the area

[@unknownself-kenshi]

@@safiravr2401 Walls are tricky. Build the wall as level as you can, then press Ctrl+Shift+F11. Save, then load - usually this will fix the wall mesh and make it solid. For buildings, hold the left bracket [ key to make the building level before placing it.

@@unknownself-kenshi thank you for the advice 🙂

@@safiravr2401 You're welcome :) There's a lot to learn in Kenshi, but you'll get the hang of things.
