guide for easy training in kenshi

start the game, ideally as a skeleton or a hiver

depending on where you start, get some money (easy method is to steal from skeleton doctors or just mine)

buy a toothpick crossbow and 5 lots of bolts and head to the hub

try to down a hre outlaw and heal him up until he plays dead (this depends on preset personality so if they get up instead of playing dead find another one)

steal his clothes until you get noticed, if he gets up to fight you find another one

until you find the right person, continue to steal his clothes, put the clothes back into his inentory and repeat until about 75 thievery

with this new thievery skill, it is applicable in many situations but i find it most efficient to steal from the black desert city skeleton limb shop

once you have a lot of money, send any skeleton character to sonorous dark and steal savant's peeler machine blueprint while he is sleeping (not necessary to do this but makes your life so much easier)

use some of the stolen limbs to equip all of your characters with scout legs and whatever arms fits your playstyle the best

with all of the prerequisites done, lets get to the training!

get to tech level 4 (shouldnt be hard with your stolen money, the best location to do research is world's end but this is not essential)

once you get tech level 4, research imprisonment and build a prisoner cage on whatever property you have

go to either the floodlands or obedience and find a broken skeleton. kill him with your toothpick and bring him back to base.

once all of this is done, to get adequate training from your broken skeleton, first level up toughness. it is too long to explain here but very easy, just look up Frankiewuzhere's guide on youtube on quick toughness training (takes ~5 minutes to get to level 70)

once you have the person you want to train up, get him the best armour possible for yourself and 2 low level wazikashis for you and the broken skeleton.

now sit back and let your character fight the broken skeleton with the wazikashis. at first they will train up melee defense quickly however then their melee attack skill will incease rapidly as well.

rinse and repeat will all of your characters and boom, a combat capable squad.

this guide might seem long and intricate,and it isn''t the most effective method by any means however it only took me around 15 days to get 2 characters with 50's in both attack and defense.

p.s, this works the best with skeleton characters, however its also good with any race you choose.

enjoy!
