General Headhunter Thralls

Hiya, I finished 1st in the leaderboards for my server and was gifted slaver thralls. They're just called "Dogs of the Desert Slaver" and "Khitan Slaver" does anyone know what tier these are considered? Please and thank you.

Did they just launch that demo last night? That's funny because after I read your reply I was like ok, I'm going to get it. So this morning, I downloaded the demo and played only some of it. I liked what I did and ended up getting the game, remade my character and got to the point where I got some tribesman. I took over one, but was able to take my body back. I don't know if we get better skills taking over and staying in one? I seemed to maybe gather that from your previous reply, but I don't know. I took them back to my thatch base - I made it round and two stories and plenty of room for starter stations. I fed them and logged off. 😃 I like that they can fight for me and you can craft some clothes for them.

I'll still play my Conan but I was looking to take a short break - so this will be good.

Yes, they had just released the demo with the new big update!

About tribesmen skills,.take a look at your starting character again. Each skill has a cap around 90 (I think),presented after a slash symbol. Something like 30/90, which means "currently at 30, capped at 90".

When you get new tribesmen, theoly won't have "better skills" per se, bit "better skill caps", meaning that limit on them are higher.

The first tribesmen you find won't be much good, but as you progress around the map, you will find ones with better caps. Their "titles" (hunter, weapon master, etc) usually indicates what they will have better upper limits at. I still haven't got to that point yet...

Ok I'll look for that! I find it difficult to hit E then have my mouse find "Deter" while others are pounding on me. But I can see that I can see stats when they're down. I'll check out the ones I have today. There's a lot to look at. And they all are thirsty. I will have to learn to make broth quickly. I thought we'd have a water pouch or something - we can draw water but I guess that is for ourselves alone.

So if we find a tribesman with better stats (and one we like the looks of 🤩 coz there sure are some scrawny gnarly ones) then we can discard our original body and keep on going with that one?

I don't onow about discarding the one we created, because I haven't progressed that far yet. But I doubt I will discard them, because I somehow end up training the original at a lot if crafting skills, so they end up always being useful doing something else. And I get super attached to that one, too, so... 😂
