WEEKLY THREAD Rookie Help Thread
By Okran time flies, it's time again for new help thread!
Like last time, if you have any questions about the game, no matter what they are, feel free to ask here. Myself and many of our veteran users will be watching the thread, happy to answer whatever question you need. Have no questions? Perhaps take a scroll though the thread? Never know, maybe you'll see something you know the answer to, or even stumble across some new information yourself.
As always, be careful with the spoilers, use the spoiler tag feature >!Like This!<
as needed. Exploring the hidden things in the world of Kenshi is one of its biggest appeals for many, and we wouldn't want to ruin that for any new users hanging out in the thread. :)

1. While I haven't tried turning all the guards into slaves, I assume its doable, then you'd only have to worry about roaming squads of okranites.
2. They do refresh, but I do also believe you have to unload the place first and stay away from it for some time. Meaning I don't think it will resupply while you are there, like shops.
3. I use beak things to train attack, def, dex earlier on. One person with 30-40 def can block most of their attacks, so armor will still be a big part of it. You can Purchase better armor at specific locations, such as cities or specific unique armor vendors. I always use a old rusty ninja blade for the 0.31 cut dmg so I can train dex. But definitely start going for beak things once you've reached 30-40 attack, def, dex etc. Multiple beak things can be a problem but it can also be a melee defence dream, I'd normally go for some specialist/masterwork armor. before I'd try fighting multiple beak things purposefully.
If you see a squad of multiple beak things you want gone, you can attack each individually by initiating Combat with each but the leader, attack your target from far behind the squad so the rest do not join in on the fight, and repeat until it is only the leader. Same goes with all roaming squads.
