callings tier list (my opinion, fight me in the guestbook)

For winning, not for fun. For fun everything is S.

@Baatyr@KashyshBaatyr because it's simple and strong. Kashysh because healing + St. Janyl + a club is how I got my only win.

@Berkutchi@Ulakchy@SoodagerBerkutchi is S until the eagle dies. Ulakchy punches things and throws javelins and is weirdly good. Soodager: poison darts are underrated.

@Jaychy@TabypJaychy is a top tier late, a bottom tier in valley 1. Tabyp has extra potions and that's it, that's the class (love you Tabyp).

@ÏrchyA bard who wins duels with verse. I love this. The ajdaha does not.

@BakshyThe dark path. The church condemns it and St. Janyl won't take you. I don't play it, my friend Nurbek only plays it. Ask him.

peoples, short

Iradi: learns fastest, good with lance, bow and prayer. Best for a first run.

Tash-Kishi: stone folk, +2 AC, poison resistance. Slow, but they don't fall.

Peri: fairy folk. Magic, sees invisible, dies if a jackal sneezes.

Dev-born: hits like a falling rock, casts like one too. Easy mode for melee.

At-Kishi: horse-folk, fast, the best archers. No boots (they're hooves).

Börü-kin: wolf-folk, claws, heals fast. No gloves. Unarmed Ulakchy = fun.

Ajdaha-born: breathes fire, scales grow with level. No heavy body armour.

Kichi: small folk of the walnut woods. Silent. No big two-handers.

patrons, the short version

St. Janyl · likes you killing evil and undead. Heals, wards, holy light. The safe choice.
Kambar-Ata · likes you killing anything hostile. Gifts for the brave. Don't leave him.
Umay · likes exploring new ground. Hates you hitting sleeping or fleeing things. Good for explorers (me).
Kök Tengri · thunder. Kill hostile things, don't leave him.
Kydyr-Ata · no piety, he takes silver. Share your bread. Weird and fun.
Morkhan · the bad one. Strength for blood. St. Janyl will not forgive you. Not on my site.

how i beat the Herald (spoiler, click)

Iradi Kashysh, St. Janyl at five stars, XL 19. Three tamgas: Chubar, Karakoyun, Tanıp (I skipped the Sands, Sary Chayan scares me). Went in with 4 ak süt, 2 Tulpar's sweat, 3 kymyz. Used the White Rider's Light the moment I saw him, then just healed and hit, healed and hit. When the bulls came I backed into the doorway of the ruin. Took the Ene Malka, it said it was warm and something bellowed, I nearly dropped my phone on the bus. Ride home: Tulpar's sweat both times something big showed up. Won on 23 March 2026, stop 14 of 22. Nobody on the bus cared.
