I've been playing for a little while now. I just created a new detective today because there is some kind of problem with the login.
I always pick tough and charming for my detective. I don't really know if this is the best way to go. What would you guys recommend choosing?

I'm with Greyling on this. Therefore, if I were creating new detectives right now, I would go with all charming or all tough, depending on which skills I wanted to focus on first, and I would just suck it up and pay full price for the smarts skills.

But this makes me wonder something. If we don't pick an archetype and create a set of custom skills for a new detective, are ALL the skills then the full price in skill points for the life of that detective? Anyone know about this?

I think you HAVE to pick an archetype.. I "created" L.E.D but she still had to have an archtype. I just got to choose the first skills she had.

I'm the one who asked the original question. I created a new detective that's very charming. Thank you all for your quick responses.

Moonshh, even when picking your own skills, you still have to pick an archetype.

Yeah, got that. As I said, it's been a while. ; ) But it makes sense!
