True, but this game is much, much more than simple combat; you overlooked passive/direct skills and how much they also impact gameplay, so if you're only in this game for the battles, then you'll be missing out on a large chunk of what the game offers!

However, that said, you can use Wyll's charisma to help with social checks, you'll just have to take the spotlight away from your main character to do it.

For me, all of my characters have high charisma, and dex, as I want to be deadly from both upfront and afar, finesse dual wielder, and ranged for the win!

I will add, after you pump your Dex and Con there are sufficient points left over to put 12 or 14 into Cha, then choose persuasion as a skill. All without having to sacrifice combat effectiveness at all.
