You'll say that when you realize how useful they are...

Yeah, we’ll get wiped out in the starting location, it just won’t come to that.

Scout skills do not stack with heavy armor skills. Combat training, hunter, mercenary, musician, and rogue skills stack with everything. All magic skills stack with each other; "preparation" prevents the character from moving and dodging until they cast a spell. Telos stacks with standard skills. Paladin can be used with any specializations available to the character.

Telos stacks with standard skills.

But not with the Gladiator, right?

You have a unique situation.

But the gladiator is available to everyone...
Or do you mean that characters have something like "unique specialization points," i.e., how many of these they can learn, and I have one extra such point, while the default is 1?

This isn't entirely accurate (as some origins unlock access to multiple specializations at once), but generally, yes. And the Gladiator is a unique specialization that doesn't combine well with others, unlike the Theos.

A Paladin can be used with any specializations available to the character.

So, can I use Nakiri + Paladin at the same time?
Because if so, then yes, it's easier to level up a Paladin instead of a healer.

You can, if you take a church or a cult.

Got it. So, you'll have to invest everything in faith and choose a church/cult based on your character's alignment.

You can join them as a cult spy and betray them at some point.

work for shady characters and make villainous quest decisions

Well, my character probably wouldn't agree to that either; Alex described him quite accurately. Unless evil heroes are summoned, or someone from the party convinces him, as he's not particularly wise or far-sighted.
So, overall, a neutral party is quite possible.

Regarding leadership – I can probably level up the main character, although I don't know how effective it will be. And then I'd have to shorten the story, which I wouldn't really want to do.

Also, Heroist: ???

one melee character, the second could be a mage or use firearms, someone from the ranged characters in general.

All magic stacks with other magic; "Preparation" – the character stops moving and cannot dodge until they cast a spell.

Does magic stack with combat styles?

I understand. Then you'll have to invest everything in Faith and choose a church/cult depending on your alignment, guys.

I think a cultist would only fit into such a group as an undercover agent, so it's better to choose a church.

I don't know how effective it will be, though.

Your card-based branch synergizes quite well with leadership, actually. However, even without it, the charisma-based buffs are quite nice.

Okay, so it's the church. I'll be a boring good guy who won't let you do all sorts of nonsense.

I'm curious, do the church people get along well with dark knights like Arandor?
