They sometimes gang up on lords with like 200 troops at once and fuck them up. Like their level is ridiculously high for a bandit.
Yep, those monk rebels are much stronger than any other bandit in the game. what exactly should I be doing? Regular Warband strategy of going around grinding bandits and buying up enterprises ASAP doesn't seem to work here. No biggie, except the quests I got were to go kill Monk Rebels lol. I got some gear after becoming an Oda Master Gunner, but the guildmaster at Kiyo-something asks that I do a few quests before I can get an enterprise. I saw some advice saying to enlist in a lord's army for a bit and then get some cash. How do I deal with these guys? Or is this a really hard starting location? I can usually outrun them but there's so many that I get surrounded from all directions on the map. There's literally small armies of them everywhere and they have these huge ass polearms AND guns. I started out near Tsu and these bandits called 'Monk Rebels' are constantly harassing me.
At the moment, I'm having quite the opposite experience lol. I've been trying out the Gekokujo mod since I heard it was one of the easiest and fun mods for Warband.
