bonarbill 181 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I like the stronghold but i find it can be really better...... For first look that is ok but i would like a little bit more....Maybe change the 8 mercenaries for trainer of troops, officer, sergent, recruiter, farmer, doctor, black Smith ... Organise patrol in the land and on the road, help village for win bonus prestige/security. For resume: Be more implicated in my land and with my milician or army each time i go to my stronghold. No need to do mission myself, just give order and receive result by my administrator. Maybe the situation can evolve in each expansion of the game... The stronghold is a disappointment, and it's pretty obvious they didn't pay much attention to it during development. All they had to do was copy NWN2's keep, or even add a few meaningful quests like the ones you got in BG2's strongholds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That true, NWN2 stronghold are 100 times more fun, but i can see new good idea in this game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aerinus 0 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I admit in PoE the stronghold is more a farm with 1 tower. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Racker 18 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Well it's more of a side-mission, unlike the Keep in NWN2 (underrated game imo, btw) which figured prominently in the main storyline. Still, I kept expecting something to happen with it, especially after finishing the dungeons below it, but it never really went anywhere. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aerinus 0 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Maybe if he would been presented the stronghold like a small domain with 1 wood tower, no keep and the dungeon Under the chapel , the players would have receive that better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aerinus 0 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I hope for the next (expansion or PoE2), your base be there again but you will have to upgrade them to real stronghold, receive a castle this time or take Readric castle. ^^ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
