I lean in at what I'd maybe call a 6.5 on the scale. Franz is certainly normal when it comes to his strengths (he's not going to be killing primals by himself for lulz or something, but he's gonna be able to take a a fair amount of hits and get back up, for the most part.Â
On rare occasions, he gets a moment or two where he'd probably rank an 8-9 on the scale. I keep this reserved ONLY for people who are looking for that RP, and it is used sparingly and with consequences.
That sounds a lot like Chachan, too. The only thing he's really GOOD at is smithing... and he's passable in combat thanks to moons of training with Warren. Still, he has his moments where he's... greater than he otherwise would be, I suppose is the way to put it, because the plot calls for it.
Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, it's more fun to focus on both and their interactions with each other instead of focusing solely on one or the other.
