General (and somewhat rudimentary) Bulwark guide

[bpat]

I'm new to the game but have a lvl27 human Cornac Bulwark going.

A question - I'm starting to build up quite a bunch of unused generic points. I've unlocked Harmony, which seems mildly interesting for disease prevention -- I survived the dark crypt without it, though, and that was disease central. I was really amped to go Harmony after the wierdling's healing abilities nearly outlasted my own... but I haven't seen any other enemy healing much at all so I'm losing interest.

So... where to go for Generics? Are there any good unlockables? I haven't gotten many escorts in this game so far, despite being pretty much done the first continent.

I don't want to go AM because this is my first long playthrough and I like lewt... so insta-banning cool items is off limits.

20 points in Combat Training, 1/1/4/1 in Conditioning, 1/5/1/0 or 1 in Harmony, and 1/5/1/1 in survival takes about 42 generic points. I'm not really sure where you'd want to put the rest of the points since Vitality doesn't work well with Harmony, maybe more points in the third Harmony talent but beyond that I have no idea.

The issue is that so far I only have 15 points in Combat Training -- I have zero in accuracy, I don't miss anything thanks to other sources of accuracy and if I eventually need to up it I will.

I also don't like any of the Survival Tree (or Field Control), so that's saved me another 8 points from your list.

So right now I have 4 points just accruing, possible for Harmony, but hopefully for some other Generic tree I unlock later... however, I don't know what other trees there are. The wiki page on 'Unlockables' doesn't seem to list any generic trees (such as the Harmony tree), so seems incomplete.

I'm not interested in the Stone Alchemy particularly much either.

Fungus sounds awesome, but I'm just not going AM this game.


Edit: Finally decided just to go Harmony. Put it at 1/5/2 to start. (I use two infusions, health and movement, so guaranteeing both get speed up has a very, very slight chance of saving my life someday).

Running a Cornac Bulwark at lvl 15 or so and did a 2 shot kill on that weirdling boss under the sea...damn,usually jousting back and forth for 10mins lol...so my set up this time is making me happy!
