[QUOTE="Azgulor, post: 4892511, member: 14291"] I'm not a fan of the skill consolidation or the fate of Gather Info in particular. I agree that it should have it's own skill. Just like the combination of skills into Perception effectively eliminates the eagle-eyed character whose hearing isn't as sharp, now all characters good at gathering info must be socially adept. (Yes, I know they are both CHA skills. However, while the distinction may not be great in most cases, it was there.) However, I knew going in that the skill system was getting nerfed a bit. I think the methodology they came up with is workable and makes the skill points you get go farther than before, so I can live with it. For my son, who's just beginning to play RPGs, I'll use Pathfinder skills RAW. For my existing campaign with my group, I'll use the 3.5 method. [/QUOTE]
