[QUOTE="Wolf72, post: 230288, member: 265"] a great wyrm dragon has it's skill points by 6+int mod X HD ... normal right? except for the fact that it's int has been gaining all along. Just like a PC with 12 int up until lvl 11 ... but then before lvl 12 the PC gets a +6 headband (17 int ...). the PC then does not gain skill points that it normally would not have had for those previous levels where the int was only 12. [with con it is retroactive ... if those were con stats then the PC would have went from +11 hp to +33 (+36 at lvl 12)] Dragon skill points (examples given by Wotc) don't take that into account, they just give them the skill points, kind of like a boost in con ... not saying my is the 'Right and Only' way, just that it follows the PHb. then again dragons are in the MM not the PHb, but I think they have enough going for them as is.
