Out of two of my ship crew Irrena has a level in Cook, a level in Deckhand and 2 levels in Cannoneer. She is on 43 exp. Chitupec has a level in Deckhand and 3 levels in Cannoneer . He also has 43 exp. Have i messed up with Irrena? Or will she still be able to reach max level in Cannoneer? Will it just take longer? What is the max exp points a shipmate can get?

I want to make Konstanten my Chanter, but his attributes don't match what a Chanters attributes should be (10 int?). I also want to make Ydwin my Rogue, but her attributes don't match what a Rogues attributes should be (10 might?). Has anybody tried these two classes for these sidekicks, and if so how did it work out? Cheers

Thanks for all the responses. For now as I'm using Aloth I just use him without a grimoire equipped, that way he only gets and uses spells he learns via level up progression. It would just be nice if you could just edit the spells in your grimoire for a price at a special vendor. It would still only be giving you 2 extra spells for each power level, so it's not like I'm asking for complete access (as in usage) of every spell for every fight.

I've started with a potd wizard, and I'm really tempted to start over with a different class for that reason. I do not have any complaints about the effectiveness of the wizard. It's doing fine. Merely the fun of the wizard. It's maddeningly stifling not being able to pick your own spell combinations, rather than be limited to the few you learn + what the grimoire has picked for you, minus any overlap. It's destroyed one of the primary enjoyments of the class, a tradition going all the way back to pen and paper. Long term thinking is gone too, due to the instant replenishing of spells after each combat, "action" style. Instant gratification central. Don't get me wrong: the Deadfire world looks amazing, the art is unreasonably beautiful, the game is immersive, and the writing, humor, and voice acting are top tier. But oh man am I not happy with wizards. Probably going to restart with a different class and hope for an eventual fix or community mod. This would be easy to fix: the core mechanics are mostly alright. It's just the bits 'round the edge. People who don't want to edit the grimoires certainly would not have to do so. Just allow their editing as in POE1, and provide an "ironman" type game mode to turn off the infuriating Diablo auto-regeneration of health and spells, and I'm a happy Deadfire player. You don't even have to rebalance anything: I can pick an easier difficulty if potd is too hard with those restrictions. These two things are really sapping my enjoyment at the moment. Everything else seems wonderful so far. They could just create a special vendor who edits your grimoire and adds the spells you want for a cost.
