Do claims lower warscore cost for the province?

[pmpdadypenguinmn]

Is there any good reason to grab multiple claims on the same enemy? I'm asking because I want to take a massive chunk out of the Selucids. I'm not seeing any modifiers in the peace deals for claims provinces that the claim itself has lowered the cost on that particular province, but maybe it's just not saying it.

Anyone know for sure?

I don't know, but in every war I declared, I was able to get huge portions of my enemies (the kind of territory that would be impossible to grab in EU4, for example). Are you having problems annexing everything you want, or is this question just a question?

I believe it just helps with aggressive expansion points. I usually just take everything plus money and I always have enough warscore for it and barely hurts AE. They might want to balance it

Right now no need to fabricate claims at all. Just declare war and grab everything.
-3 stability in this game barely does anything. If you fear revolts than just use omen to turn chance in basicly 0.

The amount of warscore a province costs is directly tied to the population count. It's getting into the late game so all of his provinces have very high pops even after I've taken slaves. I'm playing Sparta and trying to reform Alexanders empire. But I have to basically work my way to India. My last war, 100 warscore was only 4 provinces. I think I'm gonna have to truce break him a few times to get it done

That only works on small nations. A no cb war triples the warscore cost for a province

Eh, 10% tax boost isn't something to sneeze at in the early game and 700 religion mana vs 200 oratory is a pretty chunky difference (although religion mana does seem relatively useless)...

you dont need to fix -3 untill you finish you several wars. So those -10% arent important if you increased your country size 3-5 times. And omen boost is not 700 with duration of several years.

Well attack them several times of spend mana few times? No need to use it on every country eps in early game.
