The best way to describe Lone Wolf is that you take Glass Cannon's effect and invert it; Lone Wolf should be called Antimatter Cannon or something. And since Glass Cannon is the best thing ever, Lone Wolf is the worst thing ever.

The talent does other things too, but if you think AP isn't the most important thing in the game, you're kidding yourself.

You get plenty of ability points. Use at least three of them to get Man-at-Arms 2 (potentially more) and snag Picture of Health. On everyone. That should be enough extra Vitality to get Glass Cannon on everyone, even on Hard difficulty.


If you do however wish to play with only your two starting characters then the reduction in AP is already in play and the gain in ability points, action points and health comes without additional cost as you wouldn't have the other characters actions anyways.
