Interesting. I don't have that book.

Good book! Possibly the best of the Complete books. Definitely in the top two, though.

Me neither, but its actually a remarkably elegant way to handle the feat without just tromping over the rules like the old version did. Nothing wrong at all with tromping, but elegance is just so much more beautiful

 

[Rystil Arden]

Didn't it do something very similar before?

It just said, "You can use any skill untrained, no matter what, because we say so"

 

[Jdvn1]

I know. I've done that before once but it wasn't any fun. Zaeryl has 6 Charisma. Yay!

You don't play a lot of jerk Sor's then?

Yup, she got several hundred XP for casting defensive powers while other party members killed the bad guys before she could help. Yay Lasair! I bet you can guess which game she's in too. How, you ask? Go to the LEW subforum and look for the adventure threads with the most posts. Now eliminate any that you know started too long ago to have Lasair and you'll find it

Yeah, I kind of guessed -- I see it updated pretty often.

So, same effect.

I've played the same number of sorcerers as I have kenders (unless you count GMing for NPCs). There's a good reason for that, and its not because I don't love Charisma dearly (I often wish the Enchanter could have the Telepath skill list).

Yup, its Festival of Halina. You guessed it

So, same effect.

Precisely the same effect, yes.

That's "In your face" wording.

 

[Rystil Arden]

That's "In your face" wording.

Oh, I agree. But the 1/2 rank answer was just an elegant solution--the D&D equivalent of when you see that elegant programming solution that solves the problem really fast and just sigh happily. Like my Fibonacci-series algorithm. How fast can you get a Fibonacci-series?

 

[Steve Jung]

Not very.
