This is a really great guide! It's now a year old and with the recent influx of players it would be great if you can make an updated version with info on the current state of the clans if they have changed since.
I'd like to give another mention of older comments, and perhaps ask for an updated guide now that the Rat clan is out. I know this video took a long while to make, but it would really, really help if you actually put things on screen while talking about them, aside from just being in the menu. The menu screens help, but it would be very nice with some splash-images of the various lores and such (With the mouse-over tooltips displayed), and mentions of other special game mechanics that some have mentioned in the comments. Sometimes it really helps that we can see and read what you're talking about, as opposed to just hearing it, but I do really appreciate this guide. It's very helpful, but it *could* be better. Also could be more eye-catching to maybe have some gameplay of the clan you're talking about in the background, maybe even showing the effects of the various lores explained by straight up showing it in action. Might make the guide even more crazy long, but hey, that's why we're here. Alternative, could make several videos, a guide to each clan, instead of making a 2 hour video on all of them combined.
@@CrazyDentist You're very welcome, good sir. Glad you saw it as constructive. I subbed and already binged several of your Northgard videos, so keep up the stellar work. I'm by no means expecting you to do all the things written, of course, but I think it could expand your reach and production quality to add perhaps some of it =)
Can we get a updated version with the new buffs? I like the raven clan myself a lot, and now with the +15% at *ALL* Kröwns income and the 10% Kröwns discount on the great trade routes, the extra fame from scouting and the army bonus from 'Gear Upgrade' lore, I think they are pretty good.
great video, i wold say that some randoms gameplay when you are taking about stuff could be very useful for new players like me to understand the impression of these clans. thank you for the video!
I think u should show Lore bonus when u talk about it. i start play this game yesterday and i really like to see things, its help me focus and understand.
I wish you spoke about the unique mechanic buffs. For example the buffs from dragon essence or the squirrel feasts. Id also like it if you showed the lore trees for each clan while you talk about them. Otherwise good info.
Ohh wow, I was really disheartened when I realised what you meant by not showing the lore trees. I was confused by not understanding what he was talking about when the penny dropped from reading your comment, it was the lore technology that wasn't shown on the screen. This video could have been soooo good, and it isn't because of what you mentioned being missing.
Great guide for a great game, thank you Im new at this game, so your video really helped me to get into Northgard. My personal favorite clans right now are Kraken and Bear
Hi, awesome Video! Please do a new updated Version when you feel like it! There are 2 new clans and there were a lot of reworks to the others, would love to see a new Version! Keep up the good work, you are awesome!
Why not go for Axe Throwers with the Kraken clan? They are more expensive than the other units (I think?), so the 20% less cost for warbands might come in handy here?
they also got the the highest attack power tho, so if get forced to fight on a non-coastal tile with out high tide, they will lose a lot of attack power.
In this game, everyone plays with the same clans all the time.(Boar, Bear Stag, Ox, Horse ) I played like 25 ranked match(most of matches won by Stag and Boar) and ı've never seen anyone playing with the snake, kraken, dragon or squirrel clans.
The Kraken clan is OP. People hate on it for not having a dock, but the fact they can have 2 additional building slots and valkyrie units (and warchief) is such an advantage. IMO Ox is the worst tribe, with only one worker per building (scouts get shafted).
The Ox Clan was a very early DLC clan that came to the game, i guess when it was invented it was meant to be that "straight" forward clan. Like the curse of all rts games, this game got played so fast paced a lot has changed and the actual design got a little bit lost.
Do you say "temple" clan or "tempo" clan? I hear "temple" (google subtitles says so), but that doesn't makes much sense for me, or does it mean something?
Tempo clans, have a certain window in which they are really good (like boar in early 802), but then slowly lose to full eco clans that only get stronger with time.
I play the game for years so i just know them :D theres also a Northgard wiki you can check out tho. (some infos might be outdated but better then nothing i guess)
I hope I am not wrong and now make me look foolish :D (Talking about Raven Clan) Negotiators should be tier 2 lore since last patch, with Mining Effiicency being the first. :) Also something I am currently trying out a little is to build an army with shield beares and axethrowers. The only military lore point of the raven gives units not only damage depending on active sailors and merchants but also defense (up to 20% - 2% per sailor/merchant). So both units get a good amount of their "main" stat. And since your upgrade costs are also halved you spend the same amount of iron on military as other clans. Not sure if that is better than just going for berserkers tho. I am barely playing competitive but only with friends just for fun. :) Would be interested in your opinion with all your competitive experience! :) Anyway - Thanks for the video mate! Really enjoying your content and lurking in your streams! You should post your twitch account in your video description!! :D Keep up the awesome work and your nice attitude!
Signy can place 2 lures if you steal the huntet mastery lore and it sort gives the snake a a lot food but it fells a lot more like a pick you take if you need food fast and have been needed it for a While had it save me in one game where my farm tile was bugged with a small pund 🤔
On the lynx: Wait. Luring an enemy into a trap and him getting decimated because of it is regarded as an exploit? wat? Isn't that the entire idea of a trap? Unwarned surprised damage?
They can be pretty good in slower gamemodes, but pretty bad in teamgames, in which you opponents can just attack on another flank if they please and never even step a foot on your towered tile (tower cost and upkeep is also pretty significant)
You're always invited ;) I'm not the biggest fan of tierlists, since most people take it as a way to definite answer to clan strenght, which can highly variate between matchup and spawns, but maybe at some point :P
I wish Lynx clan had anything in their tree or conquest bonuses to become good at macroing... It's really strong in my 24 villagers build, but I can't get anything going for a clan sized 40ish or more...
good in ffa, but in any other game mode it's very hard to get to the point where you can run 10 sailors/merchants, have a nice army and not starve almost instantly. If you can get to that point though it is far better than military strat. getting a mimisbrunnr with field rations when you're doing the gear upgrade raven is pretty nutty.
isn't the production bonus of the stags 500 fame bonus 15%? (10% base 5% as you already have 500 fame and get +1% for every 100) ps: just something I noticed: you pronouce bear like beer. I did that as well when I was learning english. can lead to some funny misunderstandings :D.
This is a really great guide!

Speaking of me? :D

also show the lore tree when you speak about it plz.
please do

Thanks needed a new version of your clan review
Yeah it were about time :D

Time for an updated video. Great overview Thank you.
great video, i wold say that some randoms gameplay when you are taking about stuff could be very useful for new players like me to understand the impression of these clans. thank you for the video!
Oh yeah baby, thats what we've been waiting. Thanks a lot! You're the best!
Wow thanks man this is an awesome video
Just started playing this game, this video was very helpful. Keep up the good work
Thanks a lot, glad you've been enjoying it! :)
Couldn't resist to like this video, it was like No. 666.
I think u should show Lore bonus when u talk about it.
i start play this game yesterday and i really like to see things, its help me focus and understand.
Sehr gutes Video!

Im new at this game, so your video really helped me to get into Northgard. My personal favorite clans right now are Kraken and Bear
I hope you got a good time in northgard! ;)
Hi, awesome Video! Please do a new updated Version when you feel like it! There are 2 new clans and there were a lot of reworks to the others, would love to see a new Version! Keep up the good work, you are awesome!
just started the video im already here to enjoy myself
Glad you do and thanks for commenting ;)
just started the game a few weeks ago this helps ty
Nice video! mb u can make a tier list of current meta?
Would be cool to see a new version of this.
we need an annual video of this bc so many new changes in northgard still, i honestly come back every few months lol
I'll keep that in mind and of course plannign on updating this at some point :P
Why not go for Axe Throwers with the Kraken clan? They are more expensive than the other units (I think?), so the 20% less cost for warbands might come in handy here?
they also got the the highest attack power tho, so if get forced to fight on a non-coastal tile with out high tide, they will lose a lot of attack power.
u cant heal those bears and wolves with boar clan 40:02, also the boar from relic only costs 150 Lore guess game didnt update that in description
True :D went off Northgardwiki and game :P
In this game, everyone plays with the same clans all the time.(Boar, Bear Stag, Ox, Horse ) I played like 25 ranked match(most of matches won by Stag and Boar) and ı've never seen anyone playing with the snake, kraken, dragon or squirrel clans.
I've been trying to make Dragon work but the population is always a problem
well thats pretty situational, I'm pretty sure snake, kraken and squirrel are pretty close to the top clans right now
I think some of the info of the video might be outdated but it was super enjoyable and informative nonetheless! Great job and great content, thanks :D
Videobeschreibung bei 1:26:21 du hast 2x die Ziege 🐐 😅 da müsste der Luchs rein. Schaue deine Videos sehr gerne. Gute Arbeit und weiter so. Grüße
Danke dir und korrigiere ich morgen 😅👍
What does it mean to clear a clan? Does that just mean help them clear the surrounding areas?
seu conteudo é bom demais irmão!
love your work dud! you have a fã from brazil!
This was helpful. Thank you

@@reudiger8510 Wait what? Ox was definitely not an early DLC clan. It was like the 5th clan to be released as DLC iirc.
review that we all needed
ayyynen öyle
@crazy dentist just a heads up, the lynx clan is called "goat clan" in the video timeline section. Good one btw!
what about the rat clan?
This is great, but an updated one would be nice also
Do you say "temple" clan or "tempo" clan? I hear "temple" (google subtitles says so), but that doesn't makes much sense for me, or does it mean something?
Its Tempo :P
@@CrazyDentist thanks :)
what is a tempo clã?
Great video!
What do you mean when you keep saying a clan is a "temple clan"?
Tempo clans, have a certain window in which they are really good (like boar in early 802), but then slowly lose to full eco clans that only get stronger with time.
Stag one love .
Gotta update for Rat and Lion.
Where donyou get information about clans on about the game un general? Where can I read
I play the game for years so i just know them :D theres also a Northgard wiki you can check out tho. (some infos might be outdated but better then nothing i guess)
I hope I am not wrong and now make me look foolish :D (Talking about Raven Clan)

Ty nice Video. Ein Video zur meta 3v3 wäre nice
Joa könnt man machen, evtl wenn ich mal ein wenig mehr zeit habe :P
Thank you!
Do you think you'd be willing to make a video about how to beat micro different unit types?
Has the giant been buffed for Dragon Clan? As of 2022
yes they got some great buffs - now you can have more giants + they are similar to the dragonkin but just a lot stronger
which clans are good for 3v3 (clearer: wolf/lynx what is other 2 that fits each other?)
maybe goat, squirrel,horse,bear,stag dunno :D whatever you want to achieve with it, could also be snake if you want to rush 801
Thx for guide dude
I don't understand some of the terms as a new player such as cleared rtc
clearing means to kill neutrals like wolves or draugrs to get access to the tiles.
Signy can place 2 lures if you steal the huntet mastery lore and it sort gives the snake a a lot food but it fells a lot more like a pick you take if you need food fast and have been needed it for a While had it save me in one game where my farm tile was bugged with a small pund 🤔
that sounds really interesting tho, the stolen lore, lore, is really one of the coolest ones around.... :D
On the lynx:
Wait. Luring an enemy into a trap and him getting decimated because of it is regarded as an exploit?
wat? Isn't that the entire idea of a trap? Unwarned surprised damage?
What do you think of the horse's upgraded towers?
They can be pretty good in slower gamemodes, but pretty bad in teamgames, in which you opponents can just attack on another flank if they please and never even step a foot on your towered tile (tower cost and upkeep is also pretty significant)
Can you tier clans for 3v3 ? Ou made the best partys
You're always invited ;) I'm not the biggest fan of tierlists, since most people take it as a way to definite answer to clan strenght, which can highly variate between matchup and spawns, but maybe at some point :P
Snek FTW. )))
I wish Lynx clan had anything in their tree or conquest bonuses to become good at macroing... It's really strong in my 24 villagers build, but I can't get anything going for a clan sized 40ish or more...
what about upgraded gear lore for raven?
good in ffa, but in any other game mode it's very hard to get to the point where you can run 10 sailors/merchants, have a nice army and not starve almost instantly. If you can get to that point though it is far better than military strat. getting a mimisbrunnr with field rations when you're doing the gear upgrade raven is pretty nutty.
I wish dragon was a bit easier to manage, their units are soo cool :o
Well, you can get into it pretty quickly, but its definitely very different then the other clans
can you help me can northgard mobile run on 4gbram and 2cpu and v5.5.0
No real clue about the technical stuff, especially about vm's which I suppose you are using
@@CrazyDentist I know I’m 6 days late, but it’s actually an app you can buy for $9 on IOS
Useful guide. You could make this video even better by editing pictures of the lore and units when ever you talk about them.
atm losing torfin is too punishing
isn't the production bonus of the stags 500 fame bonus 15%? (10% base 5% as you already have 500 fame and get +1% for every 100)
ps: just something I noticed: you pronouce bear like beer. I did that as well when I was learning english. can lead to some funny misunderstandings :D.
The one you don't play...
:)
Bro, you just read all the information of the clans for almost two hours.
not everyone can be as good as you are.
kraken op atm
even after draugrheim update
yeah in ultra lategame their pretty hard to stop indeed :P
i think stag and raven are kinda meh. every other clan is in at least a solid spot. If any clan is S+ tier it is definitely goat.
Can you elaborate on why goat is S+ Tier?
we need updated video
