Amen. All those selections are seriously sub-optimal. Warblade is a fighter, not a skill monkey.

People care too much about optimal.

Skill monkeys don't need skill focus, they get their skills high enough without it. Characters like the Warblade get a lot more from these skill feats since they have so few skill points.

As mentioned, this is an elimination round. I suspect that most people wouldn't pick any of these feats for a warblade, but the reasons why they would select one group of skill feats over the others might still be interesting.

And really, that's the main point of these polls: to generate discussion, and to hear different views on what makes a good warblade.
 


Acrobatic and Alertness (and the Skill Focus feats for their associated skills) are the winners of this first elimination round, and will make it to the next.

This round, which of the following groups of feats (a +2/+2 feat and the Skill Focus feats for the two associated skills) would you select to advance, and why?
Uh... is there some hidden point to this? No warblade in their right mind will take a +2/+2 feat or Skill Focus, except perhaps Skill Focus (concentration) (which is not even on your list!).
