Bluff is used for lying and feinting, Diplo is used for most other circumstances where you need to roll while talking (Intimidate is confusing and underpowered). There are several useful knowledges, but if I had to pick one I'd say Arcana gets rolled the most (and in the core rules, unlike my games, it covers dragons). Tumble is the most useful combat-based skill. Survival is loaded with uses at low levels and is needed for tracking; could have had this or another knowledge to round out my 10.Contrary to what others might have experienced, no one ever takes UMD in my games. People who want magic take spellcaster levels, people who don't don't. The skill that matters the most in my games is probably knowledge, because I do a lot of narration through knowledge skills and when PCs don't have them it really changes the way things play out.</blockquote>
