Well, I admit that proves they are smarter than I thought when I heard there was a +skill ability. A per-encounter +skill ability would be gamebreakingly stupid. "Oh look, that door was trapped. Let me use my per encounter +skill ability on Disable Device for this encounter with the trap"stonegod said:
And, I'll point out that the 'add level to skill' ability only works with skills that you have at least 1 rank in, not any skill. Its what forces factotums to spend a lot of little skill points everywhere in games where Jack of all Trades isn't house ruled.Rystil Arden said:Well, I admit that proves they are smarter than I thought when I heard there was a +skill ability.

Well, without houserules, Jack of All Trades 3.5 version actually doesn't have any effect on your character except to jumpstart your purchase of cross-class skills by reducing their first rank's price by 1 skill point since you now have a half rank. It does not actually let you use those skills as intended.stonegod said:
