Why are they fiddling around with the stats like they don't know what they mean?
Astarion clearly has a higher charisma but lower wisdom. 8 Strength seems low too. Vampire spawns are physically strong. But this one is as weak as it gets.
Shadowheart is not dumb as a boot. Her dexterity increase went way over the top this time. She also doesn't seem *that* charismatic or leader-like, 10 or 12 Cha would be enough.
I don't care about min / maxing. I just want their stats to reflect their personalities and actual ability.
I dont see any justification for lowering Astarion's wisdom based on his displays of character. He is neither absentminded, nor a fool.
