yeah, that's my main issue with persuasion. it's really silly if it can just be rendered irrelevant by a npc just happening to notice the wrong character first

if i know a persuasion check i want to pass is coming up i might run my persuasion character first or even unchain him and initiate the dialogue first, but that's a lot of unnecessary stuff, and on top of that it might put the wrong character in the center of combat where they'll be vulnerable

persuasion also punishes you by giving you less exp, which makes no sense
