    I think you will be fine. Just keep some things in mind:


    1. Half of the "canon" party (Donnie Rhodes, Aaron Tigrillo and Brigitte de la Croix) have Strength oo, Dexterity ooo, Stamina oo plus either Melee oo or Marksmanship ooo. This makes them slightly inferior to the average member of a SWAT team, but pretty much relevant in most fights against mortals and lesser supernaturals. This somewhat depends on the story and power level your narrator aims for.

    2. Some traits can significantly boost your offense (e.g. Arete: Marksmanship if you belong to the greek pantheon and it suits your concept). They are mostly used to take a warrior from "really dangerous" to "stupidly overpowered", but they can also take an otherwise normal person from "average" to "really dangerous".

    3. Birthright weapons, allies and followers are a thing. Even if you are a total wimp, you can still ride into battle on the equivalent of a flying Game of Thrones direwolf, shoot bullets that make people fall in love with you or call upon a bunch of unfailingly loyal myrmidon bodyguards. There are options to link those allies to your birthright, so you can carry, conceal and summon when needed.
