I know this was a pretty useless skill in 3.5 but I cannot seem to find if PF merged it with another skill or not. If it was can someone point me to it, if not anyone have any ideas?
My gaming group has found some very creative uses for the Use Rope skill in the past. So much so that I have decided that when/if we switch to Pathfinder I am going to add it to the skill list. One of their favorite tricks was to do a classic stunt from old westerns. There would be a chasm they needed to cross and they would use the rope to lasso a security point for the rope and then swing across. I found this a perfect use for Use Rope.
There might be some other uses touched on in the Book of Erotic Fantasy.
Would you include the lassoing of the anchor point as Acrobatics as well? I personally do not see it that way, but I guess if you stretched it enough you could.Acrobatics, with tools.
