His stats are too high, especially STR. While Roland was renowed for being a skilled and brave knight, he lost to many enemies in terms of physical strenght, A+ is way too high considering even Siegfried and Cu Chulainn only got B.

Charisma also strikes me as odd given that the guy almost never led an army(his BFF Olivier did it most of the time), not to mention Roland was basically never able to go anywhere alone without picking fights with someone because of his hot headedness. Not the most charming guy to say in the least.

Durendal's weapon breaking skill seems odd and overpowered given that it doesn't seem to have a limit. It's almost like trying to imply that it can break even Avalon in one strike. The STR buff also made it all the more broken considering Roland's already too high STR stat.

I'd say you should emphasize Durendal on its defensive abilities to fit its theme of being unbreakable, a temporary buff that makes Roland receive no damages against anything, the ability to withstand any damages without flinching, etc.

Durendal's cleaving NP too, seems too strong and this point rather too generic for the "holy sword" ability, as all of them seem to do the same thing now. I would nominate "Orlando Furioso" to replace this NP, with Roland gaining Mad Enhancement B Rank to his skill and has a temporary class change to Berserker in order to gain this mountain cutting ability. This would balance out the usability of this NP.

Oliphant too, is just odd since it apart from the calling ability, it doesn't seem to have much resemblance to its original myth. Remember that Roland tried blowing the thing so hard his lungs bursted, and YET Charlemagne's reinforcements still arrived too late to save him or Olivier.
