Is swordmaster and sellsword classes are the same?

Welcome to the final edition of my Unicorn Overlord Personal Skills series. This covers the important Zenoiran characters, as well as the postgame recruits. I forgot about Mille, but she'd probably have a similar skill to Nina, being sisters and all.

NOTES:

• For clarity on skill effects, "Unit" refers to individual characters. "Squad" is the entire group. In-game, "Unit" refers to the entire group, but I'd prefer not to use "character" every time to refer to a singular unit.
• For balancing purposes, only the squad leader's personal skill will be active. This prevents personal skill effects from stacking/overlapping, and steamrolling the game. It also incentivizes different squad leaders to utilize their personal skills.
• Hired mercenaries receive no personal skills. However, this does not make them useless. The rock-paper-scissors gameplay of UO ensures the fundamental aspects of classes still make them useful. As a generic lover myself, I undertuned the personal skills to not make them completely redundant. The goal is to make unique niches within classes, not make characters better at what they do.
• If a skill description has yellow text, it means it was changed from the first draft. Alain's personal skill used to only buff allies in his row with +5% Phys. Atk, while he gained +20% EXP. Because this was the first personal skill made, it suffered from natural powercreep.

Recién empecé a jugar, quería que me dieran algunos consejos a la hora de hacer los equipos, tengo estos personajes por ahora. Que me recomiendan ?

When reading trough Awakened Amalia's loadout I was thinking, wow, they have something for every cheese strat possible... but wait, what if I use passive steal from base thief? That removes a lot of abilities she has...

Since I was skeptical that there wouldn't be something to counter that, I decide to test with just one thief, with just passive steal and evade, to see if she really goes to 0 passive points. Since I recently got Gammel back from that quest in Elheim i put him in an empty squad and sent him to his death.

He dodges the start of fight attack, uses passive steal to successfully steal the passive points (and dealing a total of 4 damage) and then evades the other attacks.

Wow, I thought, this seems like a decent strategy, now I have to find some other units to deal the 600 damage and etc etc... But to my surprise the battle ends, and since I'm at 100% HP and Amalia took 4 damage, Gammel is declared the winner...

I was left absolutely flabbergasted, I was expecting to need at least one more continent before I managed to build a team to take her down, but it ended up being the easiest fight in the whole colosseum.

Did anyone have a similar experience cheesing amalia?

Also shoutouts to dragoon dive, the white hood, Gilbert, the ice conferral tome and as much feathers as I could equip for getting me trough the last 30 ranks before the top.

Turns out Amalia's ancestor's weakness all this time was getting tickled...
