My warrior pawn has over 1k knockdown power but straightforward inclination people hate straightforward?

But that is the best option for them right? It seems players vocaly do not like it.

Or does straightforward not effect combat other then climbing, running ahead and anything else?

I would prefer them not to climb since the AI dosnt like to try and stand for better swings and warrior pommel hitting while climbing is very slow.

What would be a better inclination?

Honestly, I made a Mage/sorcerer pawn to begin with, with that inclination mindset, and outside of them being a mage, or any other ranged class, they seem to be completely useless, and brain dead.

You'd think they would charge into battle, but truth be told from what i've seen after 50 hours of gameplay, they just stay super far away from you whenever you enter combat, or a group of diff monsters.

My pawn is still set to Straightforward, but I'm going to change it to Kindhearted soon, because they're never near me, whenever I choose to engage in a battle.

It's kind of disappointing to see how useless this AI is, having the mindset of having them charge head-in into battle, and wipe everything out, but it's pretty useless from what I can tell thus far.

I could be wrong, just my opinion, and observation.

Speaking from personal experience, straightforward seems to be the best for tanky frontliners as they are more aggressive. I personally used to hate the voice for them but it has grown on me quite a bit. I have straightforward on my warrior and she doesn't really seem to climb that often.
