生活重心

生活重心（英文：Focus）明确了角色的总体发展目标。如果开启了生活之道DLC，成年人可以在十个可选的生活重心选择一个作为长期努力方向（每项属性对应两个生活重心)。

选择生活重心的截图 (v.2.8)

通过选择生活重心，统治者可以:

• 获得对应属性的直接提升;
• 解锁相关的事件组，外交行动或决议;
• 可能最终会获得一种生活方式特质;
• 获得额外的随机属性事件来提升对应属性（在低于8的情况下）。

生活重心列表

任何成年且非无能的可游玩角色都能设置生活重心。被囚禁的角色只能选择勾引，学术或神学。

每五年可以改一次生活重心。如果玩家想从多个生活重心中收集正面特质和角色修正，或者已经集全了某一生活重心的主要收益时要注意好时间。

AI角色根据特质和政体类型来选择生活重心，而不是根据需要选择。他们很少在选完之后改变生活重心。

可得的角色修正

Strategies

能力值和特质的养成策略

• 优先提升角色短板能力，因为所选野心的事件可以提高你的基础能力值
• 磨练你角色的长处以获得议会席位
• 调整生活重心以提高你的教育水平（例如，外交能力对应家庭和宴会、密谋能力对应勾引和阴谋、财政能力对应统治和商业）

Managing traits

Focuses are a fairly easy way to gain positive traits and lose negative or less desirable ones:

• Lose and gain , and from Rulership
• Gain from Business
• Lose and gain from Seduction
• Lose and gain from Intrigue
• Gain or +1 health and lose and from Hunting
• Gain and from War
• Lose and from Carousing
• Gain , , , or from Scholarship
• Gain from Theology

However, some focuses can also cause characters to gain negative traits; remember that gaining a trait which is "opposite" of one which you currently have will remove the current trait as well.

Choose your lifestyle trait carefully

• or , if you want a very large family. Compared to the level-2 character modifier, it gives +20 sex appeal and a special bedding option.
• , if spying is crucial to your strategy. Compared to the level-2 character modifier, it makes spying significantly faster.
• , if your stewardship is 8 or higher, and you want the +10 vassal opinion

Consider Business before getting a lifestyle trait

The Business focus tower and maze events give great character modifiers, but can only fire if you do not have a lifestyle trait. Note that these event chains can get very expensive if your income is high.

Choose complementary leadership & lifestyle traits

• stacks with .
• stacks with .
• stacks with .
• Most combat specializations go well with (+20% defense) or (+20% pursuit).

Change focus depending on your needs

• Troops: War gets you demesne levies. Seduction helps form NAPs and Carousing helps turn NAPs into alliances. Intrigue gets you faction members.
• Cash: Business lets you invest in potentially lucrative opportunities. War gets you loot. Intrigue gets you ransoms.
• Vassal opinion: Carousing (+100 from friendships), Rulership (+20 from , , respected ruler), Business (+8 from tower and pavilion), War (+10 from , ), Scholarship (+10 from , , and possibly more), Theology (+5 from for Christians). Even Intrigue helps, by giving +3 realm opinion per rank of prisoner released for 30 months, or by letting you replace your vassals.

Use a sequence of focuses to improve your health

• Seduction to improve health in many ways
  • Establish affairs with kind/diligent characters: if you are not getting along with your wife, lovers can invite you to a getaway. This gives you +1 health for 1 year, and perhaps more importantly, can remove stressed/depressed. The event will trigger more often if you have many lovers, if your lovers are , and if your lovers are .
  • Establish affairs with old/dying characters: can find a Lover's Memento (+0.5 health), if you have The Reaper's Due
  • Establish rivalries with jealous husbands, if you plan to duel while using the War focus
  • Establish a large family, so your Court Physician can more easily gain the trait and the "received professional praise" opinion modifier
• War or Hunting for chance of trait; Hunting can help lose /
  • More chances if you duel, at the risk of or
  • Best in or near the Byzantine empire, where there are many blind characters: they are unlikely to win duels.
• Scholarship and/or Rulership risks (additional risk for for Rulership), but can allow you to pick up and other great traits.
• Carousing if you still need to de-stress yourself (or your relatives)
• Hunting at old age (+1 health while focus is active, +1 health for dog's lifespan, +1 health permanently for training dog while diligent)

Avoid peacetime focuses when war is likely

The following focuses are more useful when at peace:

• Carousing focus: "Invite to Carousing" requires peace.
• Theology focus: "Go on a Pilgrimage" (Christian/Dharmic) requires peace.
• Hunting focus: "Hold a Grand Hunt" requires peace. The demesne levy boost is useful before war, but less so during war.
• War focus: "Challenge to Duel" requires peace.

Furthermore, some focuses are less useful if you plan to lead troops:

• Business focus: most events won't fire while leading troops
• Seduction focus: targeted seduction tombola is skipped if leading troops
• War focus: training events (MTTH) won't fire while leading troops
• Family focus: events to improve relations won't fire while leading troops

Consider not only whether you plan to initiate a war, but also whether you are likely to be pulled into one:

• Your factions are likely to rebel
• Your provinces are likely to revolt, especially with dangerous religious or liberation revolts
• Your allies are subject to faction rebellion
• Your allies are likely to go to war and request help. They will request help until combined strength is 1.5 times the enemy's.
