Quests-Reputation-Companions
« on: June 04, 2016, 01:19:48 pm »

Hey everyone,
Just recently I started to play Adventure Mode and I found myself being stuck to a maximum of two companions. I started doing research and found out, that you had to increase your fame - level in order to get more followers. Now my question is: how to increase fame? I asked at the local hamlet,  found out that some bandits were causing trouble, went to their camp and slaughtered them all. When I came back and talked about my recent victory over the leader of said bandit-group. The lord only said generic things like "it was inevitable" and so forth. And I was not able to recruit more followers then before. So my question is: What did I do wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.

Tell people about things and tell stories about sites you've done stuff in.

Are you playing the latest version? It's odd for someone to respond that way since all the adventurer improvements were implemented.

You probably had your fame increased anyway. "It was inevitable" does not, by any means, mean nothing happened.

Also, social awareness matters.

So, I did everything right? Maybe I should have done more quests than just this one to get a third follower....
Also, how do I raise social awareness?

Go kill a titan then tell everyone about it. That'll work.
Or if you put points at the beginning into artistic skills, go dancing and build a performance troupe.

-found a roc, killed it. Reported to the local lord. Get praised as a hero a few days after. Still everyone says, that they won´t join me :-/
but thanks for the tip^^. At least I´m a hero now  8)

Did you start with minus points in social skills? Could be that no-one likes you. Are you an unhinged murderer? Try recruiting bandits.
Maybe you're just not asking the right people. What exactly are they saying when they refuse?

I started with average social awareness, so I were able to recruit two people from the start. I don´t know if I am a murderer...well I guess I am, I've killed a lot of innocent people in a town that was at war with the civ I am supporting currently. Hmm I've never tried recruiting bandits. Ill test that tomorrow  8)

They say "With a band that large, what glory would I get". But when I greet them, they say things like "A legend...here? How can I help you Thorigg Bladesinge" or something in those lines.
