Recently I started working on a review series on how each preset affects each diferent companion to highlight key weaknesses within each separate preset. I have recently discovered that presets that are bad for some races are actualy ok for others and rarely on the main role they are supposed to play - fighter feels like a cleric type build for all intent and purposes for lizzard and dwarf,which I find hilarious,seeing that fighters were supposed to be tanks.
My goal is this,if in my reviews I can prove that there is 1 preset that is bad for more than two companions, I will highlight these findings,put them on a separate post and have Larian look at them.
So far in my research I have discovered that as it stands the Fighter preset is only viable for the Red Prince as a defense orientated Inquisitor/Cleric and is a mediocreish pick for Beast (the dwarf companion - I am using custom dwarfs to test all presets) but are horrible choices for human companions and elfs.
Another fun factor is the Conjurer preset which gives the dwarf companion some beastly starting stats for a front line fighter with a terrible talent choice and no skills that are usefull for a front line fighter at least until past level 2 when you get charge, then the Conjurer preset works like a battlemage specialized in summoning magic. Unfortunetly for the other companions Conjurer remains a bad choice.
