With much diligence and study, Clerics can ascend to Priest (gaining one hit point and spell point per level), and eventually High Priest (gaining another spell point and an extra hit point).
The way I understand the above statement is this: when your cleric acquires the Priest status, he receives one additional hit point and one additional spell point for
every level in the Cleric profession (for example), NOT just beginning from the level at which he becomes Priest, that is he won't lose any points that the Priest status would've granted him in case he becomes Priest at level 10 and not at level 4, for example. Correct?
Also a question about the Bodybuilding skill - as I understand it, it gives only a 'flat' bonus to hp on the top of the 'base' amount (corresponding to level 0 or absence of this skill) that is based on the current level of the skill?
And finally, is there any difference between leather, chain, and plate armour beyond Armor scores? I mean, why would I want to learn the Leather Armor skill if my character is able to train Chain Armor, for example?
