and by mods you mean genesis? 

i've found that it depends on the world.... sometimes, i'll go into the dungeons and there is no gear and no enemies. other times i go and there is enough gear to arm the entire city with. i've also noticed that when there is a lot of gear, there is usually a complete badass bandit, or creature who has been stockpiling all that crap. The best way to train is kobolds and boogeymen (in the city streets so you can retreat if you are too badly hurt). Then once you are confident, you can graduate to normal bandits.

I lucked out when one of my legendary adventurers decided to kill a werehuman for an easy fame boost and i got attacked by a wererhinosceros. I got bit and then killed the beast, then fast traveled and upon being put back into the game found that i had transformed into a badass wererhinoceros. I was too scared to test him out in were-form, fearing that the peasants would ostracize me, so i hid in the dead wererhinoceros' cave. Upon turning back into a human, i noticed that the hand i had lost during my first battle was regenerated and i did't have the scar from being bitten. Although monthly total regeneration is awesome, i was wondering if some of the fellow adventurers would test whether the were-disease is worth it the rest of the time. It seems like you do get a buff against all weapons except those made of the thing you're weak against, since the werecreatures are normally just women and children sitting naked in caves, and i haven't one-shotted any i assume they get a buff... but with full iron armor, the biggest concern my adventurer has is that a hammerman, or god forbid, a crossbowman will chip a bone and cause me to pass out and get face raped. So i want to know if were-creatures really get a buff when in human form, and also how deep that is, because the villagers say that weapons won't cut so deep, but will bones still break as easily?

yeah, but have you seen slaves running around in the human fortresses? i think that means a clown was once the ruler.

were-ism also helps your adventurers... i got my legendary swordsman to become a wererhinoceros and after that one crazy night, i regenerated my lost hand and all former scars were gone!!!!

yeah, give your adventurers more shield skill, at least adequate, and you will be able to block the first few arrows, giving you enough time to bullrush the ranged enemies.

There must be !science!
