Laith - does slave start. Calls it a mistake Me: Does the slave start when I want to play easy mode. Benefits of the start: You don't need to seek out and find food. You get healed for free. You can grind out stealth, assassination, lockpicking, toughness, labor, strength and athletics. Shackles lower some of your stats which makes it easier to level up the stats it lowers. It is, perhaps, one of the best starts to learn the basic mechanics of the game. Wanderer is probably the best to learn the combat of the game. It starts you in an area with the "weakest" enemies of the game: Starving Bandits. (Just ignore the fact that player characters start with worse stats then the weakest enemies in the game) Rock Bottom is the most interesting start for learning the consequences of losing limbs by starting you with a missing left arm. Cannibal Hunter is the best start to learn how quickly you can go back to the main menu. Kenshi is a great game Laith. It takes time to learn but once you master it you will seek out more challenging things for yourself like downloading a mod that gives you a start with no limbs or a start in the Foglands or Ashlands. Also, if you meet a character named Beep. Hire him. Treat him well. Learn to love him. Beep is the unofficial mascot of Kenshi. He is beloved by the Kenshi community. If he loses limbs don't worry. If you give him cybernetic limbs it unlocks a new 'idle chatter' dialogue set for him.

Personally, I prefer Rock Bottom for martial arts runs, if only because I can make God Hand references by doing so.

@JonStormr 2 ай бұрын

@@sonderistic7664 No, it really is the easiest. It gives you all the benefits of grinding specific skills without any of the risks inherent to Kenshi. To top it off, the Safe House just outside Rebirth always has enough food to get both your characters back to 300 Hunger. Combine both of those aspects and you can really run your characters just about anywhere depending on how much "free" xp you got while in Rebirth. While it isn't a head start per se, the amount of time you can invest into Rebirth can often bear more fruit than an equal amount of time spent in a different start.

When doing a slave start, I find that it's good to sleep during the day and use the night time for training. Train your stealth and strength at the same time, by carrying heavy shit, and then train your athletics by running around light. You can train stealth and thievery by going and stealing food. Get attacked in the morning so you can sleep and heal all day and be ready for action at night again. You can simply enter a cage whenever you want to and often the guards will just leave you there. It is a bit of a tedious start but then there's no better way to powerlevel your thief/rogue skills. I'm currently playing a slave start game and my char is a super ninja now with 95 stealth and it only took ~20 days. You can also level assassinations as well.

You came out of that with really great skills, while they kept you fed and healed up. When you start off on your own, you're screwed if you get knocked down and out. Nobody is there to heal you, you just lay there and die, and sometimes when you think you're just going to make it, animals come along and eat you. This looks to be one of the better starts in order to start to build in the beginning, since they take care of their slaves. It took me a lot of time to naturally get my skills up that high, fighting tooth and nail for every scrap of food and bit of healing. I had lots of deaths and reloading.
