Recruit
Like the title suggests, i think that there should be a way to give characters more hp through the skill tree, like in warband. Just like the weapon skills give more weapon speed and damage, a suggestion is that the athletics skill could give speed and hp. Or have more perks that gives more hp. Currently there are perks that gives 2 hp and 5 hp bonuses and just really pitiful values that doesnt help at all considering how much damage everybody does. Like how much is a 2 hp increase going to help when taking 300 damage from a lance?
And while i like how there are no super humans in bannerlord, i also really dislike how the companions and the lords go down super easily in every single battle - often without getting any kills. Right now it is extremely easy to snipe enemy lords in battle, and i think it should be more challenging. Same goes for companions. There really isnt any reason to try and develop a companion into a great fighter because they still die really easy. You can give a companion 300 skills for one handed but they still will get more kills with a bow. I played around with hp for companions and even at 200 hp alot of them still only get 5 kills, but at least they will come out of a few of the battles without being unconscious.
By having the athletics skill give hp, it is also going to give infantry a much needed buff. A cavalry unit with high riding can one shot alot of units, just like a high archery archer can 1 or 2 shot some units. I think that the athletics skill can act as a good counter for that, because currently there are no counters for it. This is also going to make battles longer, which in my opinion is one of the main things bannerlord needs. Longer battles i feel should be a given epsecially later into the game when armies tend to have more elite troops, but instead it just means that everybody dies faster.
Basically: i suggest more survivability
