u/BlackthornTheExile

Since i always play singleplayer, i decided to do another fresh start with the enhanced edition. Dificulty set to barbaric.

Create my character, do a bit of leveling and some journeys to get started plus some basic iron farming + a horse from the jungle entrance.

I raid the darfari cage locations until i find some good starter thralls(Fridda, some tier 3 crafters).

Farm a bit more materials then i destroy everything, move all important mats to my horse and thralls and move to the highlands.

I do the cage farm again between Liams watch/new asagarth and another camp nearby and already got a cimmerian berseker, a shieldwright and some other crafters.

Now i build my city in the highlands and we will see from there.

This was my most enjoyable playthroughs, didn t know the northern cages actually HAVE a higher chance of named thralls. You also get hardened steel and star metal if you have a dismantling bench.

In my last playthrough i struggled with purges to get some decent thralls. Not worth it. For those asking i don t like to club and enslave people.

Now we can build corner pillars so.. why use the pillar trick instead of a regular foundation.

I noticed they changed this cave, removed the guy who was praying and added some ghosts. Also you can t interact with the statue anymore.

If people notice anything else changed post them here, i intend to explore the entire exiled lands again.
