Clearly you don’t know anything about the best inclination for pawns. Pawns can’t even use hybrid vocations. The best inclination for a fighter is calm since not only would he aggro as a vanguard but his defense is the best of all classes so a tank that aggros enemies while making sure he isn’t damaged too much is best. Warrior is best with straightforward, agreed & might also work better with Sorcerer.
