June 19, 20187 yr My main will be a Shieldbearer (Diplomatic / Honest) and I like playing like a good character. I want to keep the paladin defense bonus for good behavior but I want to hire 2 Bleak walkers (Aggresive / Cruel) in the tabern for my party. Is it a problem? Defense bonus will be lost because of them not liking my choices? Will they finally leave the party? Thanks in advance and sorry for my English.
June 19, 20187 yr They won't leave your party (mercs have no opinions), but yes their defense bonus will be smaller. I did something similar. 2 paladins with Deep Faith (improved Faith and Conviction) 1 Shieldbearer 1 Bleak Walker Dispositions: 2 honest, 2 diplomatic, 2 benevolent, 0 cruel, 0 aggressive As you can see these dispositions are good for the Shieldbearer but bad for the Bleak Walker. And still, their defense bonuses were +14.1 for the Shieldbearer +11 for the Bleak Walker So it seems they will still have stronger defenses, no matter how you behave. But sure, they mix poorly. P.S. Helps if you avoid [benevolent] acts as they piss the Bleak Walkers off for no benefit to the Shieldbearer. P.P.S. Just realized what a terrible piece of advice that was for someone who wants to play a good character :D Edited June 19, 20187 yr by omgFIREBALLS My Deadfire mods: Out With The Good | Waukeen's Berth | Carrying Voice | Nemnok's Congregation Other Deadfire work: Deadfire skill check catalogue Avowed skill calculator

My 2 bleak walkers perform as dps snipers, so I don't care about their defenses very much. I was worried about my MC defenses, the shieldbearer. He will be my tank. I will proceed then. Thank you very much for the info!
