[QUOTE="Nonlethal Force, post: 3081002, member: 35788"] In your game, perhaps. I personally think that the PHB II retraining option models real life better. I spent 7 years of my life learning French. 10 years later, I know squat of it. However, I did spend 4 recent years of my life learning Koine Greek. I do it much better than French now. I used to only be able to print. Now I prefer to write cursively. [Actually, i prefer to type and hit the print button to be honest. Although tecnically I can still print] I used to be able to play my six string guitar really well. Then I discovered that my true love is the bass guitar and since I am in a band and play my bass quite frequently ... I am much more proficient with my bass. I prefer games where real life is mirrored. At least I should say I prefer games where my experience of what real life is mirrored. But that is my opinion, I don't expect you to agree with that. In fact, I'd expect you to say that you like games where feats are hard choices to make and a player gets screwed from time to time. And that's cool if you like it. But by non-CORE RAW, there is certainly precedent for this to be allowed. It isn't a case of should or shouldn't. It is a case of "it can happen under these rules," but you don't have to allow them because the DM has control over the game! [/QUOTE]
