It has been over several years since I last played this game so this game will feel almost new again. I chose to be an only-child Gnome since far too often I have chosen Human, Elf, or Half-Elf in various fantasy games. I am about level 18 and my Willpower, Constitution, and Charisma are 18, 6, and 4 respectively. Everything else is at 8.
Combat wise my character is doing just fine but he could stand to gain more Action Points. I have maxed out the Conveyance and Force school of magic and thus far have been using Harm, Fire Flash, and Disintegrate as my bread-n-butter offensive spells. In terms of support skills I am thinking to use Agility of Fire and Hasten to increase my Action Points.
It is the non-combat aspects that I am unsure about. With a Charisma of 4 and the negative hit to Persuade from Only-Child it is going to take quite a bit of points to get that to a usable level. I know there are shrines/altars that will boost my stats but I recall that quest line requires finding them all which won't happen till the later parts of the game.
That being said, there outta be enough points to go around to grab most/all the useful spells, get persuade to a usable level for most quests, and still raise my Fatigue and Action Points high enough that I need not worry about becoming a punching bag in combat, right? Any other buffs from the shrines/altars will just be icing for the cake I'd imagine.
Comments and opinions are appreciated,
Thank you
EDIT: If it matters, I'm soloing the game so will have all the experiences possible from my kills.
