That stated, let’s pull again the curtain on simply what these two stats are, what they influence, and the way you modify them!

What are Bravery and Religion?

At their most simple stage, Bravery and Religion influence bodily expertise and magical expertise – the max values being 100 and minimal 0 – with Bravery impacting bodily and Religion impacting magic. Now let’s dig a bit deeper into each.

On the subject of making an attempt to the 2 excessive ends of a unit’s Bravery worth – max being 100 and minimal being 0 – there is not a lot of a cause to not have their Bravery stat as excessive as you’ll be able to. The one actual draw back to this method is that you should have a a lot more durable time discovering rarer objects hidden on the battlefields. On the flip facet, when a unit’s Bravery begins hitting single digits, you not solely run the chance of the character actually turning right into a rooster, however deserting your military altogether.

Religion

Religion is a little more simple than Bravery and actually solely impacts two issues:

• The injury spells – this consists of Magic Weapons – do (each to YOU and enemies) – Increased Religion = extra injury
• The success charge of spells touchdown results (each useful results on and detrimental ones on enemies) – Increased Faither = extra prone to succeed

Dangers of Excessive and Low Religion

The place you desire a character’s Religion stat to land shall be primarily based on the kind of position you need them to fulfil. Frontline fighters that shall be targets of Magick spells, you most likely need to have decrease Religion, in order that they take much less injury.
