Confessor

The Confessor is a spy for the church who is as comfortable with a blade as with prayers. It starts with a Broadsword, a Blue Crest Heater Shield, a Finger Seal and two incantations: Urgent Heal and Assassin’s Approach.

In the opening hours the Confessor is a solid sword-and-shield fighter with a healing spell up its sleeve. Faith 14 and Mind 13 let you cast comfortably, while Strength 12 and Dexterity 12 handle the Broadsword without trouble. Assassin’s Approach adds a sneaky option for players who like to pick their fights.

It starts at level 10, the highest of the base game classes, with a very even spread and no stat lower than 9. That balance is also its weakness: it does not excel at anything right away, and Vigor 10 is on the low side for a front-line fighter.
