Dmitri simply starts at two due to his experience on the squad. I was planning on halting his own growth progress until the rest of the squad caught up with him, so that it made sense that they weren't going into these completely blind/without experience. He's just my own character that I'll be playing.<br/><br/>5-6 would be considered above average, and what you would put in the area your character is specializing. Despite that though, their definitions and what they mean are loose for a reason.<br/><br/>The stats are not going to apply very much to gameplay, aside from identifying your characters greatest strengths, and how they'll size up in situations of varying difficulty. It's hard for me to explain exactly, but does it make sense?
