Question on Starfinder Resolve and Multiclassing

[Mitabu Gorrana]

The core rulebook notes a very specific way of calculating resolve for first level characters, but what if your second level is not a mystic? Perhaps you chose a DEX based class second level? Do we then stack both WIS and DEX into resolve (1/2 character level + WIS + DEX) and gain at each level (1/2 character level + WIS + WIS + DEX etc.) or is this like pathfinder favored class where only the first/favored class would be added? (1/2 character level + WIS only)?

Specific text:
"You have a number of Resolve Points equal to half your character
level (rounded down, but minimum 1) + the modifier of your key
ability score (the ability score that is most important to your
class—see page 58). Even if you have a negative modifier, you
always have at least 1 Resolve Point.
For example, let’s say you’re creating a 1st-level mystic
(whose key ability score is Wisdom) with a Wisdom score of
16 (a modifier of +3). Half your character’s level rounded down would normally be 0, so thank goodness for that minimum of 1!
Add in the 3 from your Wisdom modifier, and your mystic has a
total of 4 Resolve Points."

Thanks!

This is spelled out in the multiclassing section of the character creation chapter.

A multiclassed character can have more than one key ability score. For each class, your key ability score remains the same as normal for that class (and for the class features that rely on that score). For any key ability score calculation not tied to class, such as determining your maximum Resolve Points, use whichever key ability score has the highest value (and therefore the highest modifier).

Look at page 27, 3rd full paragraph:

"A multiclassed character can have more than one key ability score. For each class, your key ability score remains the same as normal for that class (and for the class features that rely on that score). For any key ability score calculation not tied to class, such as determining your maximum Resolve Points, use whichever key ability score has the highest value (and therefore the highest modifier)."

OK, I missed that. Thanks for pointing it out!

Thanks for providing the page # that really helps people trying to follow along in the book.
