    Not sure if you know this or not, but "Chef Michael" is the code name professional chefs use for the Microwave. "Chef Mike prepared it" means the dish was reheated or cooked in the microwave. :)

    For those who are looking for a list here it is.
    1. Actor - Rare
    2. Cola Wola Mola Machine - Legendary
    3. Costume designer - Rare
    4. Mr. Garrick - Rare
    5. Gordon the Master Grocer - Epic
    6. Torcedor Lucia - Epic
    7. Chef Michel - Epic
    8. Brasserie Patron Mertens - Epic
    9. Prof. Ram Devi - Legendary
    10. Susannah the Steam Engineer - Epic
    In my opinion Costume Designer and Chef Michel are by far the strongest items due to the fact that the point in the game when you need them you don't have a lot of money or Land.

    I recently found 1 specialist for the soap chain that was just a must have if u like me tend to overproduce soap to sell to Eli at the prison. I cant remember the name atm but it was found at the prison and it replaces pig and tallow for simple wood directly into soap. After that point i think i hade 25+ soap factorys that just spammed out free money.

I got the specialist really early and did a massive soap production hub right next to the prison and i still needed 4-5 cargo ships on a sell route to not max out the island storage. I am honest when i say that i probadly hade close to 40+ soap factorys running with 50% boost from working conditions. Yeah that build was overkill i admit that but i hade the extra workforce so may aswell make use of it.

    Hellos guys! First of all thank you Takarazuka for producing anno 1800's videos. I love your work! Some things to considerate before any attempts to adquire the items Takarazuka showed us..
    1. Constumer designer is a must for any big company you want to build... BUT... The chances you get her before engineers are 1% every 100 rolls... Its like impossible... So how you get her before building a big cotton chain in the south america?? Here is the tip, Madame Kahina sells an item that for 5 minutes artisans are provided with fur cloths, buy it!!! Use it in the town hall and upgrade to enginners, ONLY THEN you try to get costumer designer from Eli Bleakworth's harbour. After you get enginner is much more simple to get her.

  • @redelephantsdotnl
    @redelephantsdotnl Pƙed 3 lety +7

    The costume designer is WAY more awesome than you mention.She is a complete game changer. For one; it lets you get fur coats, and therefore engineers prior to going to the New World. This is huge, especially in campaign, and *especially* if you have the Bright Harvest DLC. This means, as soon as you arrive in the New World, one can immediately start building tractors there. Tractors make the New World a *lot* easier. Secondly; 'Occasionaly produces Ponchos', that affects fur dealers *and* framework knitters. Occasionaly meaning; 'consistently'. Every fourth or fifth garment they make, they also produce a poncho. In my current game, this effect is on 9 or 10 or so shops all running at over 350% capacity. That means a single island in the Old World is producing more Ponchos that anyone in the New World can use, again freeing up workforce and buildspace to provide my coffee needs. Only problem I face now is, I'm overproducing Old World Clothes in order to keep up with the Poncho demand; so I'm hauling clothes straight to a neutral trader just to keep my storage from filling up.
    LOL! "You just need coal" Coal has been the bane of my existence in my current game. My manufacturing island is burning through 160t of coal per minute, and it's the one good I've been constantly struggling with, imagine how excited I was to reach the Arctic. I was not. Getting rid of this specialist was the best decision I made. Also steam motors produce slightly quicker than cars; and you neem them in small quantities for tractors/ships/transmuting so you need that chain regardless.

    • @Bzhydack

      There are also few usefull Items:
      - Guy WHO replaces cement with Clay (concret)
      - Girl who replaces gold with brass (watches). Yep, brass ins't easy to obtain... But don't need route.
      - Guy who produces Chautchuk in Charcoal Burner.
      - Guy who provides Electricity and produces Pearls in Sand Mine. Especialy usefull, because again eliminates route - you always would have many sandmines so you would have constant flow of Pearls.
      - Generators. Very good on Small, less important Islands.
      - Feras Alsarami, Supervisor. +50% productivity for all buildings as epic specialist is just nuts.

    There is 2 more honourable mentions. 1. Bakery extra chocolate from bakery "Fine cake decorator"
    2. Brick factory extra steel beams" General foreman" this one is expetialy usefull because reduces the number of steelworks you need. And that whole chain for just 1 steelworks require around 300 workers, 200 on the steelworks. So he is massive help, brick factory need only 25 workers and you will build bunch of them anyway. Once you build enough brick factories you can even delete all your steelwork chains. I cant play without that one.

    • @TakaYouTube

      It really just depends on what all is around the town hall. If it's a mix of engineers and investors, I like Actor, Garrick, and maybe the cigar guy (forget his name lol). Worker and farmer town halls always have a Captains of Industry book for instance... Really all is very dependant on what I have in the area.

    Specialists are great, but whenever I have some money, I try to visit the prison notoriously and very regularly to buy them out. I usually leave an empty transport ship in his port to buy, to free this unfortunate man. I start with the cheap ones, and when my kingdom has a lot of money, sometimes a reroll, but only once because 5k was difficult to earn. Especially at the beginning of the game. Respect money and money will start to respect you. In the game, it also works :)

    very cool, however in my opinion that is kinda insane to keep rerolling and not even making certain production chains if you don't have these specialist. I mean if you get lucky and RNG is on your side to get them great but having every specialist anytime u wanna create something could actually get more annoying than just producing the chain normally.
    Also thou when I do actually reroll to look for some items, what I do is just reroll a few times till the price jacks up then I stop. After a period of time the price goes back down and you can do some cheap rerolls again.

    I would argue that Cola Wola (being arctic DLC and late at that) and Devi are not that good. My picks instead would be duo Cecilia the Coffeessieur for Coffee Roaster (chocolate every 4th cycle, reduces needed chocolate factory need) + Charlotte the Chocoholic
    (free sugar from fried plantain and chocolate factory to reduce/remove need for pure sugar) - both go well in tandem to minimize the size of chocolate industry to feed all these investors.
    The second would be simple and humble Arborist - tobacco every fifth cycle for almost every plantation mean you can have cigar production line without any tobacco plantations. This require a bit of finesse to squeeze into single trade union, connect farms to producers to reduce number of warehouse traffic, plus Bright Harvest tractors can go into that too. Still, I manage to usually go without tobacco farming at all using her

    Nice video. Powerfull ITems but and maybe its just me but especially the People who replace a good in a production chain are kind of contradicting the anno design/ whole point of the game? I mean. of course its supposed to be harder and more unwieldy as you go up in Pop Tiers to fullfill their needs. Oh I need New World ressources.. eh no you dont anymore for this chain now. It forces you to expand and at a certain point yes you cant get anymore Pops . I would never have designed the ITems/people who replace a good with an easier model. But maybe its done to make the game more accessible? Might be. Either way I actively avoid these Replace goods item cause in my eye I want to use all the building chains ^^

    I'm surprised to see that the "Baker" specialist didn't make the list, considering that it is one of the best specialist in the entirety of game : it's effect is that of getting completely rid of the "Flour" ressource for the "Bread" production chain and replace it directly with grain, *AS A GREY (COMMON) SPECIALIST.* Meaning that this guy is arguably THE most cost efficient specialist of the whole game, for being so damn useful from the beginning up to the end game.

    • @TakaYouTube
      @TakaYouTube  Pƙed 3 lety +2

      The reason I didn't include him is because later in the game you just don't have as many artisans and workers that you need to supply a lot of bread to and I don't see taking the mill out of the equation for the production chain as extremely lucrative. It's only taking out a single cheap good from a chain. Compare that to something like Michel that's taking an entire section of inputs and intermediate goods out, or someone like Garrick The totally replaces the need to even build several expensive inputs and factories... The baker is a nice item but it just doesn't hold a candle to those.

      I do see the point : transport cargo. You are correct to say that "Flour" is cheap to produce. However you seem to forget to take into account that, for one, it still does take space and, for two, it requires a transport to ensure the transfer of ressource.
      In late game, when you centralise the entirety of the Grain production on an Island dedicated to that end (especially when boosted by electricity), one single well placed trade union with a baker in it is able to affect dozens of bakeries, whose goods are both produced and transported at a faster pace than it would ever have been by indluding flour in the equation. In late game, when your town reaches the status of Metropolis and "space" start becoming scarcier, anything that reduce the "space" it takes for your production to perform well is considered powerful (that goes double for cheaper good that just keeps on increasing in demand over time ; like coffee or beer.)

      I never claimed otherwise. My point was merely that, for a grey item (which is very easy and cheap to acquire) the "Baker" specialist proves to be very reliable and useful at pretty much every point in the game (as opposed to a Legendary item like "Prof Devi" that is absurdly potent but comes very late game and is very hard to acquire.)
      That people decide to use it or not indeed depends on them.

    Ah this is an older video but Bruno Ironbright is absolutely overpowered since Docklands... he gives you free Advanced Weapons AND Steam Motors every 3rd cycle... and both of those can be used for trade at Docklands at a very favorable rate to replace entire production chains. You can get free goods from other specialists but none are produced at such rate and so advantageous for trade. Not to mention his 50% bonus to several production chains.
