Footwork can only save yourself but Rotation can save yourself or save your buddy which makes it a lot more enticing. Student also lets you reach further down the perk tree without committing to a real perk above. Bros with lower skill might be better served with accuracy boosting perks than Berserk. Gunners make for one of the better Bullseye targets. Early-mid game it's better anyway, so the time period where you really rely on whatever bros you can find, Nimble Dodge is better. Their weapons (particularly the Mace/Hammer) come with extremely high AID and damage, and Chosen can come in hordes. FA value scales with the number of attacksFA tends to work better on weapons that can attack multiple times per turn or with AoE as this allows you to immediately follow a miss with a boosted chance to land your second hit. That would be 10 or 15 defense from Underdog which is huge. Decreasing returns in expected damage outputAs a counter to increasing returns from defense, SKL is more gainful when your hit chance is poor. Forge reduces armor damage takenForge mitigates armor damage received based on total current armor. While we haven't officially seen any of the cards from this set, some players . Therefore, having higher HP makes a unit more resistant to getting injured. This can be anywhere from 15-25 extra accuracy against shielded enemies and is especially useful against Footman/Ancient Dead who love their shield spam and are highly vulnerable to Duelist given their low HP. Everyone knows how annoying enemy Marksman/Arbalester are. Puncture builds also tend to spend a lot of time using Recover, so Executioner can make more sense than Berserk/Frenzy here. It also helps if this bro has high FAT (or low FAT intensive build) so that he may actually afford to use Rotation/Footwork even late into the battle after taking a lot of damage. When they are covered you are better off shooting the guys in front of them so that you can free up a melee unit or dog to go pin them. Recover is a must for this build to continue Puncturing. Taking 9L is like buying insurance. If high hp (90+) and average fat then nimble.

Mind does boost the gain provided by Resolve trinkets, Lionheart Potions (for tough fights), and the Banner, so keep that in mind when you are evaluating it. Ancient Priests Miasma and Assassin Firebombs are also not mitigated. You are also vulnerable to things like Daze or Broken Nose (from Chosen Mace) which could prevent your next Indom. It is a defensive perk that requires you to attack (offense) but also not kill the enemies you are attacking. Legendary locations: Special battles like Monolith, Goblin City, etc. CS is a niche perk that suffers from a number of problems. FA is never a bad pick here. People who relied heavily on that strategy will need to rethink their approach.

Injury avoidance: Head injuries can be particularly nastyThe head injury formula favors Brow, making Brow fairly good at helping you avoid head injuries, especially heavy head injuries. Some of the weapons perform far better than the others. There is no need to unzip it. Misconception Indom is dependent on Recover to be goodNo. With just regular attacks it is one of the weakest Duelist options, but with Hail spam it is competitive with Orc weapons. Kraken is a different story because not only is the fight long but you will repeatedly be forced to try and free yourself from grabs (15 FAT) and its in a swamp. Please refer to the mechanics if you skipped them.. Taunt offers control and utility for your teamTaunt can be a good perk to have on your tanks if you want the additional control option, even if it isnt something you are always using. Kiting: Make enemies chase you across the mapPolearms are already a good kiting weapon due to the their reach and 5AP costs. Fencers also want to have Dodge so Relentless is offering some defensive benefits as well. It is a good idea to use these if they can work on your build. So keeping a tight formation will help with morale. Bags can help you carry these new potions and they are all quite good. With some INI investment and Relentless you can attempt to achieve a state of permanent Adrenaline. Indom does a better job at this but it is unlocked further into the tree as is more expensive. This makes headshots weaker than expected, which disfavors Brow. For choosing Nimble, for a good Nimble frontliner it depends on their rolled init, though stars in init are nice too. Other interesting points of note is that the Brow Nimble line had the best injury avoidance, and that Brow was relatively more useful on lower hp units and lower defense units. If you play on a lower difficulty, or do not have the DLC, or play with mods then most of the guide will likely still apply, but keep in mind the differences.

Unless you want to get greedy, every Nimble brother you expect to be seeing danger (front liners) should be taking Colossus whether the guys got 50 or 100 HP. Instead of repeating myself multiple times throughout the guide, I will explain these here. Backstabber in this scenario is worth +10% to any of the 4 bros who can attack Blue, and not extra (i.e. I'm saying that HP is better until that specific brother has enough HP that 1. If using Dodge and having high FAT, Recover also helps you gain some Dodge value back. It solves the problem of character with low amount of FAT who would otherwise struggle wearing heavy armor. Gifted and Lone Wolf are the only perks in the game that raise both your accuracy and your defense.

The extra HP also makes you more resistant to Brigand Marksmen which tend to give new players some headaches. Famed shields have a high appreciation for Shield Expert. Barbarians: They have a lot of RESReavers have 80 RES and Chosen have 90. .

Pathfinder helps here, especially in the cases where the camp is elevated above your starting position. Gunners are an exception, being the only fragile unit Gilded will field and they are highly dangerous. Chosen.

Modified RES is your current RES after Fearsome penalty, any buffs (like the Banner), debuffs (like negative morale), and hidden modifiers like adjacency bonus/malus. Gifted/Backstabber dont fall off at high Skill levels in the same way that FA does. Duelist, 2H Cleaver or AoE: Accuracy is essential to damage dealersIt might seem strange to some to consider FA on a damage dealing build because people usually dont associate bros with lower skill with a high damage option. Two-Handers: CS value depends on weapon choiceFor the most part CS is wasted on two-handers unless you are trying to Injure Unholds, Orc Warriors, Chosen, or Nimble enemies. This occurs before things like Morale, Lone Wolf, Nightime, Injuries, etc., meaning those effects will modify the stack value up/down from the base 10% yield. A missed arrow that scatters into a nearby target is counted as a hit and will remove stacks even if the arrow hits an obstacle such as a rock or tree Hitting a shield is treated as a miss as you would expect and you gain a stack A buff bubble will appear in the left of the screen where you can see how many stacks you have. Situations where this matters are rare, but no other skill in the game lets you move 5 tiles in a turn (except Lunge + Berserk). However, since heavy armored characters cannot really benefit from them, youll want to use Nimble if you want to make use of any of these. Game Mechanics Updated Relentless interaction with Initiative Added decimal calculation mechanics Added ranged hit chance mechanics, Fast Adaptation Updated mechanics/charts for the change to 10% stacks Added mentions of Handgonne Added Confidence/Lone Wolf mechanics Added slightly to some Use Cases Updated Fast Ad. AP cost of Polearm actions reduced from 6 AP to 5 AP. Duelist Rondel is rather poor and should instead stick to Puncture spam and leave the dueling to the Qatal. Since hit chance is calculated with both your Skill and the enemy Defense, FA is more useful against dodgy enemies like Shield Wall spamming Footman/Ancient Dead/Conscripts, Goblins at range, etc. CS/Executioner/Fearsome dont work here. Built this guy for fun, it's in no way a serious or optimal build at all. You decide where to go, whom to hire or to fight, what . This is not what you should be doing. Enemies have their respective perks/weapon skills in play. The heavy injuries arent necessarily better than light injuries either so the higher likelihood to deal heavy injuries isnt necessarily an upside. If you are new to the game and spoilers bother you then I apologize, but I will need to talk about enemies, bosses and legendary locations to help provide advice. Before someone calls me out on it, you can use a 1Hander without a shield and appreciate your Double Grip bonus without Duelist, but if this is your main plan for this bro then there is no reason not to use Duelist. Direwolf attachment recommended. stack multiplicatively with Frenzy, so the more of them you stack together, the stronger they all become. When should I use nimble? If you see references to QH shield defense in older guides/videos/posts then understand it is a legacy effect and no longer applicable. I will say that taking Relentless just for more Dodge value isnt very compelling, more on that in the Relentless section. Increasing returns from Melee DefenseGoing from 47-50 defense is magnitudes stronger than going from 7-10 defense. Further, Tanks can very easily get over the 50 MDF soft cap (see Game Mechanics if you dont know what that means). However, pumping RES has other benefits, and can help keep your morale Steady or better so that you dont lose RES (and Fearsome value) through dropped morale. Fencers do generate Fatigue quickly but they also want to have Relentless anyway so it isnt much of a problem. You can beat Monolith/Library with a few dead perks. Relentless and Dodge: Dodge alone does not make Relentless goodWhen combined with Dodge, Relentless becomes a weak defensive perk in addition to supporting your Initiative. That would bring our Mind gain to 3.25 levels. They also suffer -3 Resolve on all morale checks for each adjacent enemy. LW can help you skimp on Skill for more defensive/Resolve investment, but doesnt that defeat the purpose of using LW on the archer to begin with? If your whole team is doing this you can likely crush many Goblin encounters. Some perks especially shine in the early and mid game and Im going to be pointing this out. Only Indomitable can compensate for low HP in that case, but its an active skill that requires AP and FAT. Pathfinder makes a huge difference in annoying terrainRefer to the chart in the Mechanics section to see how Pathfinder effects movement values. The Billman or Raider with a Pike/Longaxe/2Hander are probably more threatening anyway and often easier to shoot. Misconception Nimble cant be used on the front lineNo. So in this case CS actually might indeed make a big difference to the number of injuries you are inflicting early on. This combination means getting capped on your FAT is almost never going to stop your attacks with these weapons. Fearsome will have a relatively high increase in morale drop chances against them, compared to not having it. It also helps defend against enemies using Fearsome since it is actually a threat now. In some cases, Recover is a win-more perk. Overwhelm can help protect other teammates. If you use Adrenaline on turn 1 and have heavy armor, then turn 2 you can Spearwall and wait (to slow you down next turn).

However, the gains compared to non-Brow 40% Nimble lines are not especially high, so the perk point might be better off spent elsewhere. Edge brosUnderdog is far more valuable on the edge. Polearms are the same way but backliners have less need for defense boosts so you may skip it if you want to be more aggressive. This can allow your faster bros to get first strikes on enemies and hopefully land some injuries to allow your Executioner to capitalize. The Chopper tends to be better than the Splitter if you are deciding between the two, but it does depend on Bleed and Decapitate value to win. Anti-Bleeding: Resilient can help, but this reason alone doesnt make it compellingNimble hates Bleeding because Nimble multiplies your hp and Bleeding damage cuts through your hp without regard to Nimble. + Crucial for some builds to function+ Fuels other strong skills+ Probably mandatory for the Kraken* Not needed on many builds in majority of battles Costs a whole turn to use, Mechanics Costs 9 AP Rounds odd numbers up in favor of the user.

There isnt a single regular armor combination in the game where going NimbleForge is advantageous (rather than specializing), even with LPR. Famed shields are entirely at risk of being shattered (and they cannot be repaired if they are unless you have the Blacksmith in your Retinue). Heavily armored enemies can also neuter HHs effectiveness.

If 80 HP is all you can manage, the brother is probably trash and not worth giving a forged set to .

Of course compare it to other stat based perks and make the choice that makes the most sense for your needs. You gain back 15 FAT per turn naturally. Note that Indomitable favors having more armor (see Indom), so if you are using Indom then the Noble Mail lines will benefit from it slightly more than the 40% lines. Dodge supportYou certainly do not need Resilient to make use of Dodge, but there are a number of status effects (Stagger/Daze/Poison/Flies/Distracted/Shellshocked/Withered) that will reduce your Initiative and kill your Dodge value. They also have Backstabber. This is because they swing for 15 FAT normally and you recover 15 per turn, allowing you to always swing if you dont move. Even though Dodge is technically a defensive perk, you can translate that extra defense into offense if you want to. While the value may be lost on weaker foes, it will help in harder battles (yep, Chosen). Those tests seemed to suggest that Brow was worth about 15hp which is 3 level ups (Colossus assumed) of hp. + Helps new recruits catch up in level+ Gain level up stats faster, and reach bottom tree perks faster+ Raises the minimum perk tier bar for free+ Doesnt count as one of your 10 perks Not a good choice in the short term Students will be functionally down 1 perk for most of their leveling compared to non-students, Students need 17% less experience to reach the next level compared to a normal bro.LevelNormalStudentDifference220016733350041783410008331675200016673336350029175837500041678338700058331167990007500150010120001000020001115000125002500.

Shieldwall + Indom is the best defense you can get in a turn, and you will need Recover if you want to do this more than once or twice per battle. Indom helps you survive these dangerous attacks and control the Unholds. They trade protection for range and even though they must get closer to the enemy line they gain increased accuracy in the process.

It isnt worth pointing out every instance of this, just assume minor edits throughout. Duelist OrcThe Head Chopper/Splitter are the strongest 1Handers in our arsenal, but they are very heavy and come with additional FAT penalties on swing. For example, if you field 5 Forge and 1 Nimble in the Frontline then the Nimble bro is very likely to take most of the range fire, even if he has more RDF and/or Dodge and/or Anticipation compared to the Forge bros. As such, Fearsome generally felt irrelevant in battle. For example, CS Duelist Mace/Hammer deal much better damage, achieving similar injury rates with just normal attacks as the CS Duelist Gash Shamshir due to their innately higher damage output. You might say who cares, I want the Fatigue anyway and thats fine, but if you are trying to decide between Brawny and a different stat boosting perk then you may want to consider that Brawny gets weaker with Famed armor.
