[QUOTE="Zinnger, post: 6671292, member: 6788910"] What are some of the ways that a character can gain new skill proficiencies beyond background and class? If you get 2 from background and 2 from your class, how can you learn more skills other than Feats and multiclassing to rogue, ranger, or bard? I see that you can learn to use new tools in your downtime but cannot find anything about new skills. I see that the DMG has a reward system on page 231 talks about receiving training as a reward where you can get skills or even feats but this seems to be something that is up to the DM and not something that a player can actually do to gain the proficiency. Any other ideas? The goal is actually to have a way for a rogue who deals with all kinds of traps be proficient with arcane (which is not a rogue class skill to select). the only background that gives this option is Sage. So does this mean that NO rogue can ever be good at disarming magical traps without help from the DM? [/QUOTE]
