[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9201968, member: 6801228"] Since when are official rulebooks not part of RAW? You do realize the official game is bigger than the core books, correct? "Easy" doesn't leave your pulse pounding, sweat pouring off you, and needing to pull off the road to recover. So, you moved the goalposts, and then declare the initial example fatally flawed? All after accusing me of moving the goalposts? So, you can't be skilled enough to be a doctor unless you are a level 13 Rogue or Bard? Does that sound like that is going to match player expectations? So... I need to ditch the example from the official material, and make up easier things. Then include things like a disease or broken bones, and decide that THOSE things are DC 5 and 10? Also, sorry to inform you, but broken bones do require a fairly high degree of medical skill to properly set. There are no official DCs for it, since there are no official ways to break bones (there are optional ways, but they say to just use magic) but it would not be a DC 10. How about you try understanding what you are reading before responding? The DCs of skills do not change depending on the setting. So the setting does not impact the DC of the skill, unless the DM wants to homebrew. Dude, I'm an idiot when it comes to social situations, and even I know that that is a load of BS. You are utterly wrong here. Or I have the expectations that my character in a story should be as competent as a character in a story, which is about as competent as a real life person. [/QUOTE]
