Note: Funnily enough, if you surrender the Dragon Banner to a ruler, it won’t even increase your relations.Īnyway, let’s say you wanted to start your own kingdom and you’ve met the requirements, speak to Arzagos or Istiana to complete the quest.
The same steps also apply if you choose to follow Istiana’s advice, except that you’ll need to focus on imperial rulers. I won’t need to reach clan rank 3 or recruit a lot of troops anymore. If I choose to create a non-imperial kingdom, it’d require me to gain independence from Vlandia and either (a) relinquish all my holdings and take the diplomatic relations hit, or (b) keep my holdings, be at war with Vlandia, and incur an even heavier relationship malus.Īlternatively, I could offer Neretze’s Dragon Banner to Derthert since he already leads a non-imperial kingdom. In my Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord playthrough, I joined Vlandia as King Derthert’s vassal and I also own a couple of settlements.
Assuming you’ve increased your clan rank to become a vassal, all while increasing your influence and capturing settlements, you’ll have to look at which path will be easier to take. In any case, the major difference here is how you’ve approached Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord‘s campaign so far. The Dragon Banner and a kingdom’s humble beginnings Note: You must first join a kingdom if you wish to support it when you hand over the Dragon Banner.
BANNER EFFECT 3 UPDATE
It’s possible that some mechanics may change in due course, so please inform us if we need to update certain details. Note: This guide is intended for Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord‘s early access stage.
Previously, we’ve detailed how you can complete Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord‘s main quest “Neretzes’ Folly.” The quest was quite a folly in and of itself, but it’ll eventually have you assemble the “Dragon Banner.” The continuation of the main quest would subsequently lead to the “Conspiracy” quest and your ability to form a kingdom or support an existing one.
