Is Leadership of any use?

Well.. all is in the topic

Hmm not really! A person with higher leadership is supposed to increase the chance of the partymembers nearby to make a succesful strike. He/she will also be targeted more often than characters with lower leadership. IMO leadership is a skill to work on when every other skill is up to level 12! That is ignore it, there are several better skills! Just my [img]graemlins/2cents.gif[/img]

imho, leadership (and gallantry)have no noticeable effect..

WillowIX · 08-25-2002, 06:18 AM

Gallantyry increases damage with weapons somewhat, so that can be useful.

I have leadership developed to level 9 on one of my charactors but I see no noticable difference.
Isn't it a shame that prowess & gallantry become inaccessable in skills so soon. Does anyone know how to access them when the get pushed too far down the skilld list?

Sorry Kev...once they get pushed off the page, the only way to change them ...is to hack your game....

But...It is Your game...and their is a link for an editor, somewhere these posts.

Other than that....the only thing to do is not to let that happen..after my first game..I was very cautious about the skills I learned, just so they were still available..I made it a point to get them maxed out, before they got pushed off.

Thanks Packrat,
I wont hack the game but on my 3rd run through I will start with new charactors & be more careful. I am finding the game too easy with 3 strong charactors & only 1 new one. Do you think it is possible to complete the game with only 1 charactor starting from scratch?

WillowIX · 08-25-2002, 08:13 AM

HI Kev. If you have three characters you like you can always downgrade them with the Roster Editor. You will still have three level x zenmaster/valkyrie/assassin (what so ever

) but with a skill level of 1 and some traits and skills gone.

Packrat · 08-25-2002, 09:05 AM

I know what you mean...The secound time through...I used only 2 characters. (a Valkyrie and a Zenmaster)

I did it 'bare knuckles and half naked' (no weapons or armor) just to keep it interesting. (I'm glad neither one had Kung fu skills)

WillowIX,
Thats not a bad idea. If I cant do it with a normal charactor I might be able to do it with a level 1 zenmaster with normal mana & hitpoints.
