Notes

  • Every class starts with at least 9 skill so stat requirement below that is automatically met
  • Skill scaling can be improved with specific Blood Gems
  • Diminishing Returns: Diminishing Returns is a common concept in RPGs, meaning that for a given investment, i.e. one point in a stat, you receive a smaller benefit, e.g. fewer hit points per point in the HP stat.
