Default Re: Defining pretenders

A throw-away combat pretender? Not that you have to have a pretender if you want to use the points somewhere else. I guess thats the first one you mentioned.

I came across combat pretenders from the back side. While pursuing a "how many blessings can I get" or "major scale bonuses" I would end up with a combat pretender that I put nothing in and really didnt care if he died.

That lack of concern actually made him far more useful to me then when I tried combat pretenders seriously. After he started surprisingly surviving I started giving him equipment and having alot of fun.
