Total war shogun 2 avatar conquest
Which ever is greater indicates which unit is more effective at shooting arrows. Then you compare the number of casulties X and Y. Record the casulties (Y) inflicted after 10 seconds. Record the casulaties (X) inflicted after 10 seconds.Ģ) have monk archers attack a single unit of Ashigaru. For example:ġ) have Diakyu attack a single unit of ashigaru. IMO a test of lethality would target a similar unit, not pit the units against each other. Pitting the 2 units against each other is interesting but I don't think tests their lethality. Maybe it is just entertaining as all the descriptions are but anyway. The description does say it is a powerful bow. Due to its size the daikyu takes longer to notch than other bows but giving these warriors slower reload times, but the damage it causes on impact more than compensates." "The sheer size of their weapon dramatically increases their range and their accuracy is the envy of many. The description for Daikyu Samurai says this: Originally posted by peanut: no references but check the description of them in the wiki, I believe their stands something like more damage. Under the effect of the whistling arrows the daikyu would be getting hit by pretty much 3 volleys for every 1 volley the send off.
Realistically it is a cost effectiveness thing but if you wanted to be cost effective you would run neither and just spam bow ashigaru as they are cheap cheerful and you can afford to have them take losses closing range in bow skirmishes.Īlso in avatar conquest if your daikyu were killing bow monk easily I would say the other player was just not using them effectively, the much more devastating rate of fire of the monks and the effect of whistling arrows which not only effect morale but also combat stats. Yes daikyu may have better armour if trading with bow warrior monks but this situation will practically never arise in his campaign because the only clan with access to daikyu is the chosukabe which he is playing as non of the bow samurai have the range to out skirmish bow warrior monks (bow heroes being the exception) and they will never run into any daikyu. He doesn't care about avatar conquest, the OP asked about campaign, realistically the only benefit the daikyu have in campaign over bow warrior monks is cheaper upkeep (3 for the price of 2).īow warriors have much better reload, accuracy, morale and ammo with access to whistling arrows. Their better reload speed is more effective against light armoured infantries. When their missiles hit the monk, the monk dies because of lack of armour.īUT when I was sure that my enemy will not take any bow units, I preferred using monks. I played a lot avatar conquest and as far as I could see, my dayku killed the enemy bow monk, sometimes pretty easy, with the same lvl ( lvl5, 2reload speed, extra ammo, 1accuracy, increased range).ĭaykus have more men and way better armour.
