So I'm a veteran of BG 1&2, a little IWD, and a lot of P:T. I'm looking at the new stats and I am unsure how they work in gameplay when it comes to conversations. In P:T, Wis, Int, and Cha are more valuable than Str, Dex, and Con, but it's not quite as obvious which stats in PoE are more valuable in conversation.
It seems that Might is good for intimidation interactions, but that's not typically my style. Is Int the main stat that replaces both Wis and Cha? Perception is for observing things, which seems valuable, but I'm betting that most of the stats are valuable in different conversations and since you can't max them all (without cheating), you pick a gameplay style you like.
I assume that you can't use your companions' stats for conversations, only your own. I guess I'm having trouble coming up with a class that focuses on the stats I'd like in interactions and combat both since I don't really understand how the stats work. Am I making sense?:smallsmile:
Anyhoo, any wisdom y'all might have to offer would be great!
