Good new background to hire?

[Thats it im dead]

so is there new good background to hire? especially to early and mid game,, right now i think all the slave backgroung just trash

[suejak]

Manhunters are like militia.

[wei270]

gladator are pretty good i would said they are like sell swords with lower range attack, but with out the negative events that sell sword can have, they only appear on the city with arena, and they start with kick ass weapons, armor is more subjective

and assassins are a better theif that can some time come in with the top tier assassin armor and helmets, it they do have the specific armor and helment it is worth it alone just to hire them a grab their gear then retire them.

[Thats it im dead]

so is there no cheap good background like farmhand or brawler etc? i really like to find some bargain cheap good man to hire... and so far i try to sign all the slave cause they are the cheap one, but they all so bad

Manhunters are relatively cheap and ok. Nomads could be 1-2k and be pretty decent. Ranged nomads can somewhat compete with hunters at starting ranged skill.

Nomads are equivalent to raiders, and they come in melee and ranged variant. I believe the ranged one is the second best archer in the game if I read the stat distribution right. Either way they're fairly cheap and usually come with a level or two. Gladiators are overall pretty good, but very pricey, so not exactly early-game fodder.

Aside from rp there is no reason to hire raiders anymore-due to garbage equiment even lvl 4
melee nomad is 25 or 30 % cheaper than lvl 4 raider and has identical stats.

Early game, indebted are seriously good value for money as they cost 0 in wages. Later on, Gladiators are invariably a very good option as they come with good equipment. Gladiator armour is very decent kit until you can get heavy armour. Assassins are also good value for money and have a fairly decent skill distribution. Nomads are just not quite worth it, though. Hunters are flat out better.

Thats already a realm of minmaxing and if so then you should only hite hedge knigts anyway. Aside from early game trash backgrounds, many could be competitive, stars and traits make a difference. In other words, nomads and raiders will both do fine provided they have stars in right places.

According to wiki melee nomads and raiders have same stat range so unless you are using smart recruiter to find promising recruits spending 3200 on level 4 nomad is better than spending 4000+ on level 4 raider.Difference is 1 mail shirt which is significant early game..

Nomads are very good for their price, both versions (ranged or melee).

[Vic 20]

Indebted with good traits aren't that bad, zero wages make them amazing early game.

Price difference is fairly negligeable at the point when you can afford to hire these guys.

When will you ever need to buy 4 guys at the same time? At most I buy two, and that's after big defeats.

When 4 guys happen to be in the same place at the same time and have godly stats and talents.
