Why does the fighter have 15 knowledge*?

[epreber0809]

Its literally wasted points. Unless the skills count as spells and I'm missing something? I am assuming every character has the same total stat points

Drop that ♥♥♥♥ down and give me a couple more str, agi, dex, vig, and will...

will gives magic resistance and knowledge allows you to use invis pots and have a faster magic interact speed so while not directly beneficial to whacking stuff with swords its hardly wasted points id say

[epreber0809]

Yes. Will is good. I am talking about the intelligence points I don't see as useful.

I meant Knowledge* not INT. INT is not a stat in the game LOL. It's basically the same thing. My bad. XD

[Folid]

yeah my bad only read the last bit after writing the response
true that fighter doesnt benefit alot from knowledge directly magic interact speed while nice is hardly nescessary but invis potions can be really good if used at the right moment and since they require 15 knowledge you can use them without needing gear on fighter

[aeyo(s)]

I think specifically it's so you can use invisibility potions as fighter. Fighter is like an all-rounder. Pretty much all tools are available to the fighter, this includes invisible ambushes.

[epreber0809]

I guess that makes some sense. Sucks if you try to move you pop the illusion though. I don't really use them.

i guess fighter knows some ♥♥♥♥ too! that's why the 15 knowledge

this is incorrect. knowledge was nerfed months ago and magical interaction speed was moved to scale with will instead of knowledge. debatably one of the worst decisions IM has ever made but that's a topic for another thread.

fighter has 15 in knowledge cuz fighter has 15 in every stat. why? if you average together the stats in each class you will get 15, and it seems IM wanted fighter stats by design to be average in all things.

at this time it feels like wasted stats, but it's clear at some point there will have to be a rebalance of will and knowledge. will currently provides far too much relative to other stats
