[edit] Overall
Depending on which route one takes after chapter 9, Gonzales would either be level 5 or level 12 Brigand, but the stats are the same regardless. Should one takes Lalam's route, he will be level 5; and should one takes Elphin's route, he will be level 12. Many would choose Lalam's route since it allows more room for level ups. He starts out with relatively high starting health, speed, and strength and somewhat decent skill and luck, but suffers with very low magic resistance like most Brigands and other similar classes. His strength and speed growth rates are impressive, but suffers on defense (even through this is compensated with high health growth rates) and skill rates. Because of this, Gonzales will suffer with bad accuracy in the beginning and like most Brigands, the chances of him pulling off a critical will be slim. In addition, his magic resistance growth is so terrible that players rarely see him gain magic resistance when he levels up. As such, it would be ill advised for Gonzales to go off and attack a magic user since the magic user will literally shred him into pieces. Should one seek a possible Berserker (which Gonzales can promote into) who can finish off a foe in a single blow, use Gonzales. Otherwise, Geese would be a more balanced option instead.
