[@kungpochopedtuna]

[@daddykrimbus]

If you have items in your backpack and you take it off, the game considers the items to not be in your inventory. This means that if you have food in your unequipped backpack, then bandits wont steal it from you when you are knocked out. It also means guards wont arrest you for any illegal goods if you take off your bag with Hashish in it before entering a settlement.

[@Ektalon]

Just for Christ’s sake don’t drop them on the ground! Kenshi has a delightful habit of disappearing them occasionally. I think it’s the bags falling thru the terrain.

[@outrider8569]

Another pro tip you can run away the guard trying to check you. As long as you're faster than him he and he doesn't get too close they can't force you into the dialogue. They're persistent though

[@ProphecyAI]

@@outrider8569 yea i always do this in the beginning and ambush them to steal their shit haha

[@sketchiefello9002]

Kenshi is love

[@shi-woonyi2605]

I think it could've been a great game, it still is a good one. But I feel like they finished the basics and left the game for kenshi 2, so I expect great things from kenshi 2 AND a far better mod support.

[@alexoelkers2292]

I told him a while back that he should make a Kenshi video because Rimworld and Kenshi have a large player cross over. I'm glad he took the advice and made a couple Kenshi videos.

[@viiii9046]

Taunt works off damage, so if you taunt + block you'll find your enemies peeling off that the guy you think is gonna tank. So, block should be reserved for when a weaker member of your team bites off more than they can chew.

[@Glory264]

Best advice is to train athletics to 50+ and strength to as high as possible, if you add stealing to this you have thief who can carry anything and you can outrun anything. Stealing is a thing that is metabreaking game - unlimited books and higher tier stuff for research, unlimited food and hundread thousands if not millions of cash. Also i recommend mod that removes debuffs for wearing backpacks. Dropping them every fight is tedious and sometimes they can despawn when dropped.

[@alexoelkers2292]

Thats why I go for the Thieves Backpack as it has less of a stat hit. Otherwise I just move the bag to my inventory during a fight. If there isn't room in the inventory I don't worry about it as technically you do gain skills faster if you artificially lower your stats

[@yuriyui]

One thing I wish I know sooner is while wild bonedog eats whole corpse, pet bonedog will only tear the limbs off and have fun, either mod or more hauling job to furnace.

[@aeric257]

Starting at Hub, play a human male, or recruit one, then mine around 2-4k worth of copper. This will give you plenty of starting capital for the next phase. Travel to any Holy nation city and buy as much grog as you can afford or carry depending on how much you prepared for this, then return to the hub and sell it for a huge profit. Use that money to purchase a traders backpack, then do another run, hire some mercs at your last stop, then make your way to the hive village and sell your grog. Repeat until you're buying the entire holy nation's supply of grog and destroy the hivers economy.

[@JoshSweetvale]

Also wise to go to the Holy Nation early. Ashlanders and Greenlanders can head there, recruit a few dudes, and head out. Once you've got a Shek, a Hiver or even a Robot following you, they hate you and you won't be coming back 'til endgame.

[@SirBlaze75]

@@JoshSweetvale actually you can still go into Holy nation with hivers and robots as part of your group, as long as they're not in your party, i also believe if you carry them that also gets around it but not too sure on that one, I recruited beep, and sadniel into my party and left them at hub whilst i went to the HC to get Griffin and another guy from the holy city just north of the hub not too long ago ( no mods )

[@nevitac]

So, for the defensive turrets all you need to do is use shift right click with the character selected and that turret will become their job. From thence they will eat from nearby food storage bins and return to their turret right after. Just make sure the character doesn't have other jobs higher in their priorities. I believe the medic jobs are always active even if you toggle "jobs" but they only do those jobs when not in combat so it should be safe.

[@ewenriordan6614]

Also make sure turret gunners aren’t set to passive or they won’t man the weapon

[@hatredhyde]

Idk abt you but i really enjoy playing with just 1 man, no headache for building base either

[@brycekiller1]

You can sneak near the ruined holy base with fogmen. Its a way to level up your sneaking to like 50+ in five minutes.

[@brycekiller1]

Also you can sell hash at Worlds End. Its legal in that city and is marked up 400%

[@brycekiller1]

Made it to the end and noticed there is no reference to repairing the mesh. I rebound mine to a thumb mouse button, and i hit it quite often. It helps stop your people from getting stuck on terrain and/or buildings. Idk the normal keybind but definetly look into your settings and use it a LOT. **Control+Shift+F11 is the default keybind!**

[@outrider8569]

[@Lordodragonss]

Instal smaller textures mod. Game looks absoutly the same but loads 200% faster :D

[@alexoelkers2292]

I maybe noticed a very slight frame rate diffence. Think it probably depends on your PC. Turning down the various draw distances in game will have a much larger effect on fps.

[@bitzturnbyte9334]

For your gate make sure you build next to water. This was the enemy will be slowed down when they walk toward the you. This will give you more time to react and allow your gunners to kill them before they reach the gate.

[@nickbyrd8487]

Turrets do bonus damage based on height so if you put them on top of the towers you can build they can one shot most body parts.

[@U2haveanicedayty2]

Be very careful with shift F12 and I mean real careful I can't stress this enough... For you role players it can be a blessing or a god dam nightmare and always save before playing with it... You can literally click on certain terrain and even massive boulders and move it anyway you want!!! For example: by bad teeth there are TONS of huge rock formations all around the town... You can literally take them and put them all in the center of the city!!! Put them under the map so you don't see them at all (this is why I say be careful good luck getting those back)... Delete trees turn the entire swamp into an empty wasteland... You can literally change the entire world

[@enriquecabrera2137]

Theres 3 recruitable skeletons. Agnu the defective mute soldierbot in the tower of abuse, Sadneil, the depressed skeleton in the Skeleton bar, Burn, the retired explorer in Burns tower

[@SirBlaze75]

there's more than that but the rest are general skeletons you'll find at some towns and waystations, or slaves that you've gotten lucky with when freeing, those you're speaking of are garunteed unique ones the rest are random chance as to when they show up

[@enriquecabrera2137]

@@SirBlaze75 hurr Durr. Did you not watch the video? The topic is about the guaranteed free skeleton recruits. Everyone knows there's a random chance of random spawning a skeleton, dummy.

@@enriquecabrera2137 except the OP says at 10-40, and i quote 'outside of mods there are literally only 2 recruitable skeletons so if you got 1 of them put them on the turret' , it was also in the double gate section and nothing about garunteed, recruitable or even free in the section, so yeah there are chances in several cities and waystations of recruiting skellies which proves that point wrong, so maybe rewatch the vid before calling someone dummy ;) rather than miss remembering. And so much for his statement that Kenshi players are a friendly group :| if their first interactions are insults :|

[@leafpelt15]

a weapon i love is the Naginata Katana after getting a base built as it gives a plus 4 while out side to your attack, 25 damage to both humans and animals but have a minus 15 to Armour penetration, i find it good for dealing light armored bandits and wandering animal hords and for early game black smithing if you happen to get a small shack in a town just make staffs = 2 iorn plates and study up to Refitted Blade (the higest level a lv 1 study bench can go, and train till your crit chance is 50% or better you will start making cat-1 level which sell for more cats (most of the time) then the cost of 2 iorn plates your growth and skill just goes up, save up and train more once you get set up with a base / outpost you will have a good / great weapon smith in the same line as your tailor if you used that to make cats as well

[@yaemz123]

Weapon smithing has a terrible return on investment. It takes iron and cloth for higher levels, takes far more work per item produced, and at the highest level, you can only make edge 2 weapons. These aren't even as good as edgewalker 2, and you can straight out buy edgewalker 3 weapons for your entire team. You can forge masterwork armor at the top end, which is the best possible, and for money making, cloth items like bandanas are among the fastest money makers among things you can make yourself. Things like drugs and booze aren't even more profitable, they are just easier to transport in mass quantities due to stacking.

[@adamas4563]

Tip 1: There are more then the two unique skeleton recruits availible. They can (not always) spawn in the bars of Crab town, the hub, Mourne, Heng, Shark, black scratch and flats lagoon. Tip 2: Flats lagoon is a great place to sell hashish since it gives a great price and has 6 shops to sell it in. Tip 3: If you are using replacement arms you can remove (put them in your backpack) them to increase your strength gain. Tip 4: If you want to learn more about the world of Kenshi recruit the skeleton Burn, he knows stuff about things. Tips 5: "DONT GO SOUTH". "This is why humans are dying out" (Burn)

[@rumplstiltztinkerstein]

The best place to test assassination, stealth and toughness for me early is Skinner's Roam. East of Border zone, there are roaming groups of around 50 starving bandits. If you get detected, they probably won't kill you due to blunt weapons, so that's a lot of toughness. They need to be hostile before you can improve your stealth, so attack unprovoked far away before following them under stealth to get 50x the regular bonus. Also keep practicing assassination on them and you will also have a steady stream of skill points eventually because as you keep taking them down, more wake up and go back to following the leader. Also after taking someone down with assassination, you can practice pickpocketing on them unconscious. So we have toughness, defence, assassination, stealth and pickpocketing. All being farmed easily with little to no risk of losing your character. It's even more op if you have a skelly and an endless supply of repair kits. Also all of them are stronger than you early game. Lots of extra xp. So make sure to increase those non-combat stats before trying to fight them. The game becomes a piece of cake after that.

[@Ferdhat]

My biggest tip is sorta an exploit for getting a base going, if you build a solo building outside your walls while building it will keep bandits from messing with you while you build. The AI breaks and they all stand in the empty building waiting for you to build another.

[@Slydeish]

If you assign a person the job of Turret Operation, they will man a turret, but will automatically go get food when they’re hungry and then return to their job. Shift + Right Click on the turret to create the job.

[@Ioraek]

Why do so many people use the phrase "that being said" as if it means "so anyway.." or "now, moving on.." The meaning of "that being said" is roughly equivalent to "however.." or "despite that..". It's like people using "ironically" incorrectly. Damnit. I'm getting old and irritable.

[@fitgirllegbusta2406]

'recruitable' is a loose term in kenshi. Always buy skeleton slaves and set them free (back at your base) when you can afford it. Some of them will be grateful enough to join you. For getting stuck, you can usually just have someone else get close enough to pick them up and then drop them away from the sticky point (usually inside newly built or reloaded gate walls)

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

The reset squad feature lets you fast travel a squad back to base from anywhere on the map whenever you want as well.

[@dragno1455]

this is nice, Kenshi is one of my favorite games to play off an on and is very addicting, brutal, and fun

[@אוריפרץ-ח9ב]

1. there is a big Gorilla in Mourn with excellent stats. release him. have the town knock him out. bring him to upper tower in Mourn and put him in the bed. quick save. quick load - and you have a punching bag to level up your entire squad. 2. Nodachi Katanas are the best swords in the game. you can get excellent results even with a lower level character. 3. Relax. enjoy death.

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

Shift +right click will let you stack orders. To train strength I put on a backpack full of iron ore, pick up another player and shift right click all around the circle road around Squin and through the center of town. It's a fairly safe route and cutting through the main street each time around puts the guards on anyone who might attack you most of the time, and if you don't make it to the gate you get a little toughness training out of it as well Ha Ha. When they get to the level I want them at, I strip them of everything and have them run the same course to rapidly build their speed to where I want it.

[@cbl1199]

If you want an easy way to grind strength early on, as it is one of the stats that is most annoying to rise due to how lacking the means to do so are unless you mod the game, I recommended going to the ruined settlement west of the city south of the Hub, and east of the Shek territory, as there are tons of heavy crap laying about like those huge sword, rocks and iron bars. Then you fill your guy with as much he can carry, then send it/them to follow one of the Shek patrol that goes around the area and just go do something else for a few minutes. The entire time you're walking around overweight, this will up your strength training by a ton (and also athletic or whatever the name, haven't played in a long while) while the sheks offer them 24/7 protection against the wildlife and can potentially give you additional weight in the form of fallen enemy corpses (like you grab unto one to up that weight some more, and you can put stuff back into the pockets of dead humanoid so they can act like a second backpack), before long you'll have a buff guy who while he can't defeat armies on his own yet, will at least have enough force that he'll be able to carry anyone to anywhere in record time and never be caught by anything.

[@SirBlaze75]

another way is starting as a slave in rebirth, pick the shackles and put them in your inventory and the HN will replace them with another set because they're classed as boots they don't take up much room so you can easily overload your character quickly and still be able to pick up other stuff

[@alexoelkers2292]

I disagree. I have men repairing the gate during an attack so that it takes longer for the enemy to destroy the gate. Then I have crossbow men on large towers shooting so they don't hit my men as they repair the gate. Tip: you can connect walls directly to the large towers if you build the walls first, leaving a space in the middle for the tower to be placed. The walls will go slightly into the tower when you place the tower after placing the walls first.

[@sw309]

First time I got KO'd in kenshi I didn't realize that you could get back up and I was so confused.

[@spatrk6634]

there are 3 recruitable skeletons in game that are unique. and you can always find more random ones but rarely

[@XoRandomGuyoX]

There's a base recommendation to use a 'V' formation with rounded out edges at the top to literally funnel enemies towards your gate, giving you extra time to shoot them from both flanks. Bonus points if you can get some water in that space to make enemies swim. You can also tuck in a tower or two next to the 'V' so that defenders on high get to shoot down with a height bonus. For turret gunners I think shift-clicking to assign it as a job when idle should allow them to get food.

[@brianpleshek5593]

If you're getting your ass beat and you don't want this. Save your game and reload. This will remove all the aggro off of you for a short period of time. Enough to get away often.

[@Alte.Kameraden]

Honestly Grog is superior to food cubes for a lot of reasons. It's a Production Good, not a Food Stuff. This means if done correctly specific raider factions will NEVER attack said settlement as long as you're not placing down food storage containers which is REQUIRED for automated production of food and food cubes, but not required for the Production of Grog. So by micro managing food/rations instead of having it automated you can avoid a wide range of raids on said settlement. This doesn't even include space requirement. For example, you need room for ovens, room for flour milling, room for additional crops like vegetables. Any efficiency you'd gain from going Food Cubes is wasted by all the additional steps required to produce Food Cubes over Grog when Grog literally just requires water and wheat yes more wheat per Cat, but lets face it you just need 1 farmer with good skill to manage half a dozen or more XL Wheat Farms... why bother with all those extra steps, extra hands, and extra space? 2 people can operate a Grog Farm 24/7 literally and if it's somewhere relatively safe, like say the Holy Nation's valley with 100% fertility and Water, you can make bank pretty easily, only having to flee/hide from specific types of raids. As it doesn't take much to defend from river raptors. Same goes for Armor Plate Production, it's a great way of grinding up Armor smithing and at the same time Profits being Armor plates sell for 400-600 Cats for the cost of 4 Iron ore which is a net profit and great future investment as well. Give it, requires researching Plate smithing but that isn't too difficult. Best part is Armor Plate Farming can function absolutely fine within a NPC controlled city as long as you have access to iron ore, making cheap, secure profits. You can even place two people in said city 24/7 operating automatically with a food storage container, and set to throw the other in a bed in case something bad happens to the miner. It's an effective way to make money on the side with almost no resources invested outside of research.

[@victorpassos4355]

Well, the best place I found to make a settlement is inside the Gut. Yeah, deep inside gutter territory, around the iron trees. Hire some mercs, build a storehouse quickly, and some mounted crossbows on the roof while you build some walls around a iron tree. Every UC or Trader Guild tax collector will need to get past a swarm of beak things, getting killed (not your fault) skipping that tax and getting free gear, or killing a bunch of animals and you get free meat and leather for your Armour making scheme. Stone, Iron, Leather, Meat and sometimes free gear.

[@alexoelkers2292]

Yeah I like all the meat running around in gut. Greenbeach is favorite as far as raw resources/farming output is concered.

[@lordsorcerer3885]

O.O What kind of armor are you making that requires meat!?

[@yips_way]

Disagree with no.6. Always put the medic/robotic/splint job on everyone. Sure, if you want to micro manage your single medic every single fight then just have one or two, but if that medic gets an injury that prevents him running and he gets downed, plus all your other guys go down, who medics then if some are very close to dying - oh, your new on the spot medic who will take ages & might not be able to heal quick enough to prevent death. But if everyone had the job - from the beginning - they for one could medic themselves as soon as they become concious or even while playing dead without you having to worry, plus two, they can medic their squad members too, possibly saving their own lives & their buddy's. I'd rather have 10 average medics with their own medkits than one great unconcious one that can't help or your injured member can't get to easily. Also, if everyone has a medkit they will all be healed quicker overall or at least enough to change the outcome of a persistent onslaught. Just a quick example of my usual playthroughs, 30 guys (usually way more), all downed, one wakes up, heals & splints himself. Others start to get up, heal & splint each other, in no time all 30 healed - or - wait for medic to try & get round those same 30 before any die or get attacked again while waiting for your super healer. 👍

Katanas become even more op end game if you ply the game as intended max bleeding. People die faster 1v1 than vs most other weapons because they bleed to death, whe fighting huge numbers you find that with blunt force wounds enemies heal up and keep getting up on rotation, making co quest slow and attrition heavy.... katanas on balanced bleeding settings bleed targets out to death before they loose all health and they never get up Knocked out targets cannot detect you stealing , you knock out the shoop guards and keep at night and loot the entire store without worry, you practice knocking out on slaves safely, as opposed to risky stealing via theft skill.

Nice kenshi

You can infinitly recruit skeletons though, can you not ? Either through the slaver trick, or simply trying your luck with the norther cost / Holy Nation skeletons. Pretty sure that is full game no mods. Also, most important tip, train athletics first. You can outrun pretty much everything with just 30 - 50 athletics.

You can't recruit Holy Nation skeletons with out mods

[@KonaFanatiker]

@@alexoelkers2292 You absolutly can recruit the HN / Northern Coast Skeletons without mods. Maybe for the slavery trick you need to be lucky to find one with low enough stats, but if you find a lone skeleton wandering around, once every 3 or so ingame days you can trigger a dialogue with them. Depending on your answers you can recruit that lone skeleton. Checked the Wiki once more and you can only recruit them via the dialogue once. You're also not allowed to be a skeleton yourself and they need to have low enough stats to fall into the recruitable category. So at that point the slavery trick would work with them.

Hot take: only people who need iron next to the base are plebs who haven't learned the art of hashish smuggling.

[@alexoelkers2292]

I mine Iron long after cats become completely irrelevant in Kenshi. Iron is one of the most important resources to look for in base building. For One, a lot of the buildings call for Iron. But if you plan to have smiths outfit your army with weapons and armor, and constantly produce high quality robotic limbs than you are going to need a good iron mine or two... or three... And if you do care about cats, in the end you will make ALOT more money producing top quality goods for sale made with IRON than you could by selling hashish. But Having a copper mine next to your base is a little less important (although I would never build a base with out one).

Eh, my first play through took a sad turn when I let my base do its thing for a minute, tab back in and notice Beep’s portrait is gone. He got team killed by wingwang who was right next to him on another turret. By the time I tabbed back in the flies we’re making a meal of him already. RIP beep
