I was trying to make sense of a leveling up tree, and while 3 personalities (and wiki) imply 3 ways of progressing, I guess actually there are 5 main progress paths, for whichever stat you will increase more.
Attack is pure mercenary, hunting goblins for living.
Scout for a thief-style character, stealing is the main source of income. Most quests and partners exist for this character.
Wisdom for a wizard/herbalist, mostly gathers grass to survive.
Survival for a trapper that mostly gathers food.
And Stamina for a whore/succubus.
Can't tell if mixing up traits is a good idea or not.
I am now going a survival route (on permadeath difficulty). I am too afraid of doing most quests, but I'm still rich thanks to all the food I'm getting. Hunting boars is something I'm currently figuring out, whenever they're aggro or not when I'm approaching feels random, but I guess having a scythe instead of a sword or being wet affects boars enough to pass over the weak threshold. I keep calling this character "a poop wizard", even if poop alchemist is more fitting. I need to try using frag bombs with a trap skill, to see if they'll explode or not that way, then I wouldn't need to farm dirty rags if they do explode.
