Which Starting Job In Adventure Mode Has Dodging?
« on: September 20, 2020, 01:49:05 am »

When I played as some job which I don't remember I was a competent appraiser. When I chose fortress guard I had no skills. I always play as peasant.

Does anybody know how to become an elephant man in adventure mode? I literally did all advanced world settings possible to increase chances.

Rangers and hunters start out with good dodging and some other use full skills

What's this about starting jobs? I thought you always spent points on skills?

Is there some way to play as pre-generated dwarves?

As of .47, when making an adventurer you'll get to choose their starting situation: where they come from, the god or religion they believe in, and their "profession" -- for RP purposes, what they were doing before they got possessed by the player decided to go adventuring. All the profession choice really does is add some skills to your character (before skill assignment). Only a few of the professions give anything useful, though, mostly the aforementioned Hunter/Ranger which give some Dodge levels.
