Leadership?

[Sai Kyouji]

Does anyone even find this skill useful at all?
For a while now, I thought it was as awesome as in the first game and never took a look...

Now I feel betrayed... Who gives a rat's buttock about 30% extra dodging and resistance even at lvl 10 leadership?

I was so disappointed as well but mostly about the range of this skill... It says "leader in sight", and this means, obviously, that all your companions are really short-sighted...since the distance is like 5 metres.

I'm certainly no expert - but (I'm guessing the bonuses stack) - 30% dodge bonus / resistance for having your leader in sight + whatever bonus your character has makes it a pretty useful passive all party buff that costs no AP. It's contextual I guess. Maybe works for your play style - maybe doesn't.

That's if you waste 10 poitns of leadership lol That's 5 levels
It's only 3% each point

Leadership is entirely worthless while the range is so small, any benefit gained is negated by the ♥♥♥♥ storm of aoe attacks that come before you can act in boss fights.

I think it's decent enough to level on at least one character in your party. It's very helpful for stacking resistances, I get it on my enchanter.

For example, I like to have a Wizard (pyro/geo) who usually ends up setting everything in sight on fire. Leadership makes it much easier to get enough fire resistance to stand in Necrofire all day for elemental affinity.

If you're using fire much around cursed surfaces like I do it doesn't hurt to build fire resistance for your entire party tbh, again leadership is nice for this.

The dodge is less useful but it's not completely useless, especially if you have a dual wielder in your party.

it's useful to stack resistant though, whole party turn map into world on fire and take no damage while the enemy burn to death

Sure it's useful when leadership is just attached to your equipment but not worth spending points in

Harmful effects dont really work in Tactician where enemies have tons of magical shield.
Most enemies also have teleportation, magic and grenade. They dont walk around a lot.
