Medieval Dynasty: 5 Best Tips for Beginners

Published

 on

Most survival games have the same sole goal: start from scratch and survive as long as you can by any means possible. However, very few games in this genre let players take the concept a step further. For example, imagine starting from scratch with the ultimate goal of establishing your very own thriving community. That is the basic premise of survival game Medieval Dynasty. If that sounds like your cup of tea, you'll have a lot on your to-do list to get there. Furthermore, there will be many obstacles to overcome in order to make that vision a reality. That's why if you're just starting out in Medieval Dynasty, we've got covered right here with the best tips for beginners. That way you can get your new life and future accolades started off on the right foot.

5. The Markets And Making a Profit

Everything you could possibly need or want in Medieval Dynasty can be purchased from the markets. However, for most of the game, buying things from the markets is too expensive and not the most lucrative way to obtain resources and uphold your income. That's why one of the best tips for beginners is to not ball out on goods at the markets unless you're direly in need of it, or it will help benefit you in the long run. You should instead use the market to make money for yourself.

For example, one of the best things you can sell at the market for some quick change is basic tools. All you need to make basic tools such as shovels, axes, and stone knives are sticks and stones. As a result, they're easy to craft and can provide you with quick cash that you can spend on other resources rather than depleting your savings (this will also help get your crafting skill up). You can exhaust this method throughout the entire game, however, you'll want to find a more profitable way to make an income later on, especially when the tax man comes around.

4. Start Farming Early On

To quote Game of Thrones, “Winter Is Coming”. Winter arrives quickly in the Medieval Dynasty, and it is harsh and cruel. As a result, one of the best tips for beginners is to begin farming as soon as possible so that you can grow fruits and vegetables to last you through the winter. Berries are another valuable resource that you can collect. They can be found by the masses and provide a great source of food and water. They can also be sold for a profit.

Consequently, farming is also a great way to make an income. Two of the most important items we recommend farming early on are flax and cabbage. Flax, because they are the ultimate money-making machine. You can plant them to yield flax seeds and stalks. Seeds can be used to re-plant for the next year's harvest and the leftovers can be sold for extra profit. Additionally, you get flax stalk which you can use to make linen, fabric, and basic clothing. Cabbage, on the other hand, is great because it has two main benefits. It can be used as fertilizer for your crops and can be consumed for food.

3. Don't Neglect Hunting

Just as important as farming, if not more, is hunting. Essentially, you can't progress further into the game without investing time into hunting. Animals you kill will grant you an abundance of food and other materials that you have access to right away – opposed to farming which consumes a lot of time. Sure hunting has its own flaws and you need a lot of patience, but you won't be able to build a prospering village without partaking in the trade.

That's why one of the best tips for beginners is to start hunting early on and aim to reach Tier Two Hunting as fast as you can. You unlock a perk at this level that lets you highlight wildlife, cutting your time to find and finish your kill in half. It's also worth noting that if you hit an animal, such as a boar, it'll be injured and you'll be able to outrun them. So, don't give up on your kill if you've already wounded them.

2. Dynasty Reputation

Of course, the main goal of the Medieval Dynasty is to build a thriving community with your surname at the forefront. As you can, in fact, play as your kin after you die, as long as they live to the age of 18. That's why if you're in it for the long haul you'll want to focus on building your dynasty reputation over time. That means it doesn't hurt to lose some reputation early on. After all, you must do what you must do, and it can always be made back later. However, let it get below -10,000 and your game will be over.

1. Tax Season

Tips for Beginners

Something every player forgets as they get lost in the jumble of starting their new life in medieval Europe is tax season. Paying taxes in Medieval Dynasty is unavoidable, and it comes at the end of each year. At the beginning of the game, this will be a considerable hit to your piggy bank. That's why one of the best tips we can give to beginners is to not forget about taxes. However, you'll learn how to manage it later on.

This also plays into why we suggested not spending all your money at the market. And instead recommend selling tools, and investing in farming and hunting early on. All of these tricks will pay off in the long run and give your dynasty the best chance at flourishing.
