‘Ready?'”ĭO NOT take option 3, try to get all killing blows on either Eirik or Gunnulf, with at least 5 kills going to GunnulfĪll options lead to the same result, option 3 gives the most extra dialogue

“I’ll point them out,” Eirik says over his shoulder. A few minutes later Eirik appears, with a weather-beaten man introduced as Valgard. “You arrive in front of what must be Nobleman. “Listen, I know a guy who would love to put a few of these skals in the ground. Why?”Īll options lead to the same result, options 1 or 3 give a little extra dialogue Just bought ’em while you were walking around. “I don’t talk to… they don’t talk to me!”Īll options lead to the same result, option 1 gives the most extra dialogueĪll options lead to the same result, you lose nothing even if you “Pay him” “The governor tells me you’ll be giving us a hand.”Īll options lead to the same result, options 1 or 3 give extra dialogue Saga1convopart1cnv_chat_Īll options lead to the same result, option 2 gives a little extra dialogue Link to new TBS Decompiler created by Gestaltzerfall: (TBS2) -> Send Ludin to his death -> Side with Rugga (TBS1) -> Save Alette -> Keep Egil Alive -> (TBS2) -> Keep Ludin Alive -> Side with King I’d recommend choosing one of the two following paths and sticking with it for the best RP experience, this has the added benefit in that if you ever choose to do a 2nd playthrough you can take all the opposite choices. Sometimes this takes the form of extra rewards, but more often it is simply the path preferred by the characters. There are a basically 2 “forced choice” decisions in each game (this one and it’s sequel) however, once you make the first “forced choice” each subsequent one has a… well… “preferred” choice. In the following guide I will BOLD the options that I felt were the “best” but by all means decide for yourself.Regardless of what your supply was at the end of Chapter 2, you always start Chapter 4 with 3 days of supply so buying any before then is pointless This has reportedly been fixed.The only character you should max out Willpower on is Eyvind, and that is due to how his hero power works (And maybe Eirik).1 Exertion + 2 Break is enough to trigger Dredge splinter chain reactions, more exertion can be useful but 3 is too much imo.In general level as follows: MAX Break > at least 1 Exertion > MAX Strength > MAX Armor > Willpower.It is up to you whether to spend renown leveling up in chapters 1 & 3 (Hakon’s caravan) since it will only be returned to you at the very end of the game (and they face a LOT of hard fights).

Try NOT to level up anyone in Rook’s caravan since everyone who is lvl 1 or 2 will automatically be leveled to 3 for free when you start Banner Saga 2 (and you keep the unused Renown too!).

If you are about to lose a battle just reload the latest save and try again, and/or reduce the difficulty setting

Losing a battle is a bad thing you can lose an achievement and consequences for losing change from event to event, but will not be covered in this guide.

Battles and wars are good things since they give kills and renown, and if you go for a 2nd wave they also give morale and a chance at items they also help you towards the “Battles fought” achievement.

From a kill count and renown viewpoint increasing the danger stat is a good thing, but it does make fights harder by spawning more and higher level enemies – there are a few events that modify this stat, but Charging into Wars and increasing the difficulty setting are the primary ways of affecting it.

Always charge into wars and try to take on two waves when able.

There are a few characters you should NOT get kills on for… reasons( because they die, also TBS2 rewards players for saving Alette) and they are: Rook or Alette (pick one), Egil (if Onef joins), Onef (any kills here are wasted unless you need the achievement for 1 kill on him).

everyone up to 2, then 5, then 9, then 15, then 19, then 24, and finally 30 – anything more than 30 is wasted

Try to keep your kill counts even across all characters with certain milestones in mind eg.

If you find a node I missed just let me know and I’ll add it in. It is possible that I may have missed obscure side paths, but this is every possible point where I could make a decision after I went through the game 2x. I created this guide from the TBS Decompiler the specific location of conversations are included so you can explore the files and confirm my findings for yourself if so inclined. It should go without saying, but this contains MASSIVE SPOILERS Introduction Every decision and consequence pulled straight out of the game files.
