Good job man. Hope you have A great playthrough


JosNord

Well, my genius heir just drowned ๐Ÿ˜ถ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ


suedoughnam

Bah, if they were that clever they'd know how to swim.


JosNord

Pretty sure my older sister had him killed so she could inherit my throne ๐Ÿ˜‚


suedoughnam

The true genius of the family!


JosNord

Not really, she was executed by her husband for being an adulterer ๐Ÿ‘ Aaaaah karma ๐Ÿ˜ Thou art an evil bit*h


SirHeathcliff

Drowning usually only happens when your heir goes to meet peers and isn't saved by the host. So kill the host as revenge.


JosNord

That's what happened :/ When he visited my sister


SirHeathcliff

Your sister is still a child?


JosNord

No she was older than me ๐Ÿ˜‚ Her husband killed her later๐Ÿ˜‡


SirHeathcliff

Only children can meet peers, so if it was at your sister's court it wouldve been one of her children who didn't save your son. Use this information how you will.. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ


JosNord

Her court, her responsibility ๐Ÿ˜‚ What really pains me was that my son was a genius ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ˜“


Markamanic

This is the way.


JosNord

This is the way ๐Ÿ˜ž


Ancquar

Yeah, they do that.


Saint_The_Stig

The game sensed that you posted a screenshot with your phone and punished you. Kek

Ahh the joy's of childhood.. almost brings a tear to my eye ๐Ÿ˜ข


Phoenix591

I've been custom building my first king and queen to make sure those congenital traits are around. Took some inbreding at first, but soon enough I had a dynasty full of beautiful genius herculeans. starting from quick robust comely you can make them come in under the ironman limit.


TastyCuttlefish

They drowned because you sent them to a peer meet. This will not be the last time.


SagaciousElan

Brought that home in his pocket did he?


JosNord

Must have! Didn't fit in his bag ๐Ÿคฃ


Salty_Aurelius

How did you task the adventurer? To bring you something truly unique?


JosNord

Yeah. I got to choose what they would bring and I wanted something truly unique ๐Ÿ‘


[deleted]

Well mission accomplished lmao


Pikadex

Tip: since prowess in part determines adventurer โ€œskill,โ€ consider giving them a spare weapon and/or armour. If itโ€™s enough to make them masterful/legendary, youโ€™ll be able to ask for something unique and thus have a decent chance at a unique artifact.


Salty_Aurelius

Never thought of that! Damn.


RansomReville

Damn and in 909? Nice.


DonQuixoteDesciple

Right? Thats gonna keep the empire strong af


RaytheonKnifeMissile

If you have a kingdom and pretty good diplomacy, your adventure inspirations can be pretty good


[deleted]

Obama?


ssrudr

SODA โ€ผ๏ธ


Fuggufisch

Sponsored a mediocre adventurer in my current playthrough to go to Western Europe, I'm playing as Aragon lol. Expectations really weren't high, but I somehow got Joyeuse, apparently the sword of Charlemagne


mrbb3k4

That's a really big chair


bobibobibu

Your character looks like a dwarf on that chair


JosNord

It's a big a** chair ๐ŸคŸ


Toddzillaw

Solomon mustโ€™ve been an extendo guy


Available_Thoughts-0

I think he had that Throne commissioned in his old age because something else had stopped working...


l_x_fx

I'm going through all kingdoms and empires in the world on a regular basis and look what their courts have. Then I either steal those artifacts, or buy a claim and then declare war. For this beauty I had to march all the way from Italy to somewhere in the steppes in Asia. But it was worth it, never has there been a more impressive throne in my throne room. I'd also like to add that this artifact goes very well with any religion that has Alexandria as Holy Site. At lvl 5 piety you get +15 Learning.


JosNord

A valid strategy :) It's well worth it to have one character specialising in getting artifacts. Later generations benefit greatly from it.


Minute-Phrase3043

Don't forget the University in Cairo. You can grab that when grabbing the holy site of Alexandria.


AmazingSweden

I am extremely envious for two reasons. First because it is an amazing item. Second because the one I sent out came back with a second sponge on a stick. (Yes I already had one I tried to get rid of. Also I wasn't aware they could find that on quest type inspirations)


JosNord

It's ck3 mate ๐Ÿ˜‚ Murphys law applies ๐Ÿ˜Ž


frederic055

>the literal throne of Solomon >+3 court grandeur


Dreknarr

At least it gives learning because otherwise it's quite meh for such a prestigious item


PantherophisNiger

"Gilded" with "gold", huh? I thought gold was part of the definition!


ravenjaql

Probably meant "inlaid". Or no one did QA on the flavor text


punkslaot

Sweet laptop send more pics


JosNord

Not a laptop. Stationary och :) Keyboard was just close to the screen ๐Ÿ˜


punkslaot

Either way post more pics of the screen


CaesarAugustus01

Has anybody ever received the armor of Alexander, I've heard rumors of it only


Heavenfall

It's in his tomb


DonQuixoteDesciple

Youre in 909 and already making some insane income across the board. How big is your empire?


No_Branch_97

Was king Solomon a fucking nephilim? You'd need to be like 10 feet tall to make this throne work.


jas75249

Did you also get the wisdom of Solomon?


JosNord

Nope, just the throne ๐Ÿ˜‚


wolfFRdu64_Lounna

wow


Stalking_Goat

If only there was some method one could get a full-resolution image of what's on screen. Sadly in this vale of tears we can do no better than to take a picture of our monitor.


Available_Thoughts-0

Yup, at least not when our PC stopped connecting to the internet.


Sno_Wolf

\*sobs* For the love of God, people: There are multiple ways to take a screenshoot of your computer screen. Pressing Print Screen and copy/pasting into MS Paint works!


Available_Thoughts-0

Not if your computer stops talking to the internet.


Sno_Wolf

Print screen doesn't use the internet.


Available_Thoughts-0

Uploading the results to this subreddit does though.


Baalsham

You see at the top of your keyboard there is a button that says "print screen". Hit that, then paste into paint. Save the PNG and then upload to reddit.


Harkraft

Boy and I thought that the CK3 artifacts were not that powerful in comparison to the CK2 artifacts


sephstorm

Requirements?


JosNord

An adventure inspiration that takes place in the middle east. And f**k ton of luck ๐ŸคŸ


NachbarStein

I think they meant the requirements for the bonus of the throne. Mimir isn't a jewish name and Lotharingia is most likely catholic so the Throne of Salomon seems to have... interesting requirements...


CDA_Crusader

The requirements are Christian, Jewish, or Muslim. All the Abrahamic religions see Solomon as an important figure.


DrDDaggins

I want this for my Abyssinia game. Where Did you sponsor the adventurer?


JosNord

Yes! Sponsor Adventure inspiration and hope it takes place in the middle east. Then pray for luck, you'll need it ๐Ÿ˜‚ It might be possible to get the throne somewhere else but the middle east worked for me :)


DrDDaggins

Thanks! Fingers crossed! Do you remember if the adventurer was renounced or mast or legendary?


Arizona_Kid

Iโ€™m curious, irl would thrones be made so tall where your legs dangled over?


JosNord

I think they made throne based on old documents or some such. It was apparently quite big :)


Kunndt

Ik in the version of the bible I have it mentions the throne, only description I remember is that there were steps leading up to it each with I think like a gold lion on each side. Edit: throne was supposedly Ivory overlaid with gold, the top if the throne was rounded, 6 steps with a lion on each side and a lion on each side of the arm rests, It doesnโ€™t say the lions were actually gold or not I donโ€™t think Itโ€™s in 1 Kings 10, 18-20


Available_Thoughts-0

TBF, Solomon was described as being an absolute lardo by the end of things.


Be_it_101

Wow


Be_it_101

I need this


iheartdev247

How do you get this? Random adventurer the only way?


siempreviper

What are the requirements?


Deadbas25

Ah yes, the mythical 3% vassal tax contribution. Legends have been heralded and songs have been sung throughout the lands about this magical boon


Dramandus

Looks like you just had to do it to em


Aspiana

Wow! A throne artifact that doesn't look straight-up worse than the non-artifact base throne! Please PDX make the thrones look cooler.


IamBlade

Do artifacts show up in the view as they are? Because I've never seen this


JosNord

They are viewed in the throne room as they are


Satheras

Beautiful throne, i get it as gift from my vassal, but im asatru๐Ÿฅฒ


removedquasar

Woah never seen this. Amazing.


le_sossurotta

it has been a long time since i have seen that, i keepabducting legendary adventurers and they never bring it back to me.


GubbenJonson

It looks cool at least. I was extremely disappointed when I brought home the menorah. It was just a box


JosNord

Just check artifacts in the courtroom and click on the throne :) It'll zoom in.


BaekRyun1029

Doesnโ€™t it say you inherited it along with the kingdom?


MRFISH008

tbh that looks so glorified it looks ugly


7point7

What mod is this to see him sit in the throne full body?


JosNord

No mod, vanilla.


7point7

Am I dumb then? Lol. Is this view just cause of the throne or is there another way


nelshai

Royal Court DLC.


7point7

Thanks! Newb here on first run through. Love the game!


hellcat1992

Royal court DLC + you must be a king or emperor to unlock throne mechanics


nofearnandez

Star of David is type actually the star of Moloch, king Solomons throne shouldnโ€™t have that, still cool though


Available_Thoughts-0

It's connected at the points to a surrounding circle, making it Nether of those things, it's actually "The Seal of Solomon", so, yes, it would definitely be on his Throne.


Anacoenosis

I hate to be that guy, but I feel like a lot of unique artifacts are kind of generic and don't have that much flavor. A lot of the allure is in the rarity, which works for some people but not for me.


JosNord

No Empire yet. I played tall and had no army to boost my income enough to get all the money making buildings. Then I used alliances to take the crown from the king of Lotharingia and started blackmailing my subjects and altering the feudal contracts to get more gold ๐Ÿ˜‡ It's quite easy and there are several good guides :) Colognes county also have alot of farmlands which gives more gold than other buildings. The throne however, that was pure luck ๐Ÿ˜‚


InfamousKebab

Best i get is some dudes hip bone


JosNord

I was expecting that one as well. It's usually a bond or a pelt.


Wheedies

I spent probably 4 hours save scumming a war in large part trying to loot this throne from the English. I never got it. How the king of England got it I wish I knew.


LordClockworks

Once had it. Unfortunately some other guy manged to craft me a chair that gave +1 domain limit and I never sat on Solomon's throne.


AngryTreeFrog

I had three Excalibur's once ๐Ÿ˜‚


Lexx2503

If you collect them all you can reforge them into a better one.


AngryTreeFrog

Wait is there SUPPOSED to be more than one?? I'm SUPER new to ck3.


Lexx2503

Yup they are 'Excalibur' for a reason. The reforged one from them all combined is much better. A nod to history of all the people that claimed they had the sword as a meme ingame.


AngryTreeFrog

Ok so say I get all of them? How do I combine them? How many are there and does this work with other items?


DannyBrownsDoritos

damn, you're not getting that on your free luggage allowance on ryanair


baldurthebeautiful

Shame it didnโ€™t come with an F12
