WOL Increasing Education Trait

[EarthBowser]

Do the Way of Life foci still have a chance of raising education traits?

If I remember correctly, the stewardship foci would both have a chance of raising your stewardship education, Family had a chance of raising the diplomacy education, and I can't remember if the other ones raised education or not.

I know the events have been reworked a bit since WOL first came out, so I was wondering if education was still able to be raised, and if so, which ones do it?

I think they can still be raised. I know martial education can be raised through combat so I assume everything else can too.

They all raise your stats but they only fire if your under 8 in the related stat i.e. diplomacy is related to family and carousing, stewardship is rulership and business. The foci are colour coded to show which stat they increase when you compar them to you character screen. The only exception is the war focus event which can fire when you're over 8 martial. However, I haven't seen the Alexandar event in ages so its MTTH must be really high.

You can get the character modifiers at no matter how high your score is in the related stat e.g. you can still become a heliocentrist scholar by building an observatory even if your learning is 20.

I know "foci" is supposed to be allowed too but God, does it make me cringe.

diplomacy, using family focus
stewardship, using rulership but also under business though much rarer
intrigue, either seduction or intrigue focus

I couldn't find anything for martial or learning surprisingly. Fighting works to boost the first but if you're a crappy priest seems you always will be a crappy priest. Though to be honest it is the most useless attribute

With rulership focus you can go from indulgent wastrel to midas touched over 10-15 years if you have a kingdom sized realm. You almost always get a single level increase from the trade route event from business focus?

Martial education still involves leading armies.

It's been a long time since I've seen diplomacy education increase from carousing or family.

I don't think you can increase learning education at all?

I see that a lot. For me it's the intrigue "training from an old spymaster" event that I haven't seen in like six months.
