Strongholds

Post by Loredweller »

Most noble gamers,
i know there is some profit from stronghold for warrior and wizard. What with other, is there any save honor?
TIA,
L.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong since I haven't played with most of the strongholds, just read about them.

The Thieves Stronghold will net a regular income, but I believe that you will have to give most of your profits to a higher guild.

The Bard Stronghold does allow you so sell off the playhouse after you have done your production. It may produce a profit depending on how much you spent on the play, but if anything its a one time thing.

The cleric stronghold then? what will that give? All i know is that you can get the mce of disruption +2 if you know how, but..

Does the cleric stronghold count like a "real" stronghold anyway?

Paladin "stronghold" is similar to the cleric.... I believe you get your own room. You also get a nice set of armour though.

The thief guild will give some income depending on how you run the guild - but you'll have to pay some money to the mother guild.

The cleric stronghold gives some items when completing stronghold quests - but nothing after that. And BTW the Mace of distuption has nothing to do with the cleric stronghold.
It can be upgraded by Cromwell while doing a quest for the temple that anybody can get - not just a cleric.

After what I can remember the Paladin stronghold gives nothing more that items when completing quests. No steady income after that.

I've not tried the playhouse so I don't know about that.

What else, save honor? How about experience? And there are some nice quests or items attached to maintaining some strongholds, as well.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.
