The real reason people will still use skill focus is because it is a widely used prestige class mechanic.Re Spell Focus:An interesting mechanic may have been: You gain +1 to the DCs for a particular school. After you have access to 10 different spells in that school (not including cantrips) this bonus rises to +2.Still easy for clerics/druids, but more fun for sor and wiz (who usually take the feat). This just means if you take it at 1st level you have a small bonus, which will eventually become larger as you become more of a specialist.Another solution may be "if you are a specialist of the school you chose for this feat, you gain an additional +1 DC". Of course, then we'd have all the sorcs clamoring...Re Greater Wpn Focus, Greater Wpn SpecPersonally I never saw a lot of characters with more than 4 fighter levels. Ftr/Rog, Ftr/Brb, Ftr/Drd, Ftr/Wiz, Ftr/Sor yes fighter mixes well with just about anything but straight fighters was strictly an NPC profession so to speak. Upon explaining to a friend the optimum way to make a 6th level melee I told him Ftr4/Brb2, and I really couldnt think of a better combination. Now, the choices are more difficult, as high level fighters can rival lower "half-breeds" in damage. Also, the dilution of Weapon Specialization to supplemental products' prcs is not as tragic as it had been. Why be a fighter when you can be a psywar? Why not mix and match. Now there's a good answer.Granted, this is my own opinion. Is it a guarantee that most high level fighters will have those feats? Well, damn near. But honestly, don't they have the feats to afford it? Also, more ftr-prcs can be made, meaning you have to actually have 8 ftr levels instead of the mandatory 4 for weapon spec then pick a new warrior class.Technik</blockquote>
