New to Cult of the Lamb? Learn which doctrines are best for your cult's early game to ensure a smooth start and a loyal following. Get the best buffs!
Alright, so you've just started your cult and you're wondering which doctrines to pick first, right? It can be a bit overwhelming with all the choices, but don't worry, I've got your back. Getting the right doctrines early on can make a huge difference in how smoothly things run.
Think about what you need most right at the start. Are your followers getting sick too often? Or maybe you're struggling to keep their faith up? These are the kinds of things you'll want to address first. For example, if you're finding that your followers are constantly getting sick, picking a doctrine that boosts their resistance to sickness or one that allows you to clean up sickness more effectively can be a lifesaver. It means less time spent babysitting and more time for you to focus on expanding your cult or heading out on crusades.
On the flip side, if you're noticing that your followers' faith is dropping faster than you can keep up, you'll want to look at doctrines that increase faith gain or reduce faith loss. Things like the 'Feasting' doctrine, which makes followers happier when they eat better food, or 'Lawful Reminders' which boosts faith from sermons, can really help keep that meter topped up. A happy, faithful cult is a productive cult, after all!
Don't be afraid to experiment a little, but definitely prioritize whatever is causing you the most trouble in those early days. A strong foundation with good doctrines will set you up for success down the line. You got this!
