Title: what are your favorite npcs for slaves?
Post by: Vertex on December 10, 2010, 10:59:48 pm
ive tried to use the wiki to find good slaves. adult ones for cheap mercs. but the wiki seems outdated and way off on alot of its stats. so far the best slaves ive found to be cheap mercs is homesteader females with 116 hp and they are very good with a smg. the wiki states they have some resistance but it seems like they are naked in terms of defense. which probably balances out the high hp. what are some good types of slaves you have had luck with?

There are many type of slaves that i like and i say reason too.

Combat Slaves
- Can use all types of weapons.

Ghoul (Crazies)
- LK 9 is for good sniper.

Homesteader
- Good with pistols (should give atleast needler to make useful)
- Sometimes can found 116-119HP homesteaders.

Trappers are the only good slave, even though the Devs!!! just had to nerf them into near uselessness  >:(~!

you used to be able to get 77 and 87 hp, now you can barely find 67 hp ones... dammit....... but still they're good with guns and melee and have good armor.

Spears are easy to avoid with weapons like shotgun, SMGs and hunting rifles.

Combat slaves seem better.  Similar hp, same armor, and they can use any weapon.

somewhat true, but here are the following problems combat slaves have that trappers dont:

1.  they are very spread out, in trapper encounters, every trapper is up for grabs.

2.  in "combat slave" encounters (Moonshiners) there is typically one with a mauser, plus 4-5 thugs that have 120 hp and shotguns/deagles. where trappers are generally simple and easy to take.

3.  when enslaved, combat slaves in groups tend to cluster fuck/line up when fighting. (for example:  the target is " O "  combt slaves are " T ",

O   TTTTT

And they keep trying to get past each other before shooting.
