In Stellaris, maintaining high vassal loyalty is crucial for stability and long-term success. Here’s how you can increase vassal loyalty effectively:
1. Improve Relations
Use envoys to improve relations with your vassal. Positive relations directly impact loyalty.
2. Reduce Subject Holdings
If your vassal has too many subject holdings, it may reduce loyalty. Consider limiting their holdings.
3. Offer Favorable Agreements
Modify the vassal agreement to lower their tax burden, reduce fleet obligations, or give them autonomy.
4. Strengthen Their Military
Vassals feel more secure when they have a strong fleet. Consider supporting them with resources or tech.
5. Engage in Diplomatic Actions
- Guarantee their independence.
- Join the same Federation or Defensive Pact.
- Give them gifts to improve trust.
6. Use Ideological Alignment
Vassals with similar ethics and governing styles tend to have higher loyalty. Align your policies accordingly.
7. Increase Integration Progress
Over time, integration can help bring vassals closer, making them more loyal.
By implementing these steps, you can ensure your vassals stay loyal and committed to your empire’s goals.
