Would you want to be in the party where nobody has training in spot?Having said that, I do think that +3 is too large a bonus, I would certainly trim it down to +2. If you want your accuracy with even tighter binding, consider that skill training might give +X *or* your ability bonus. The disadvantage with that is that you train things you are bad at, of course.I'll recount a suggestion I had in another thread, which is that training should act a bit like Rogue Skill Mastery. For each level of skill training (apprentice, journeyman, etc) you are entitled to a minimum dice roll, so that certain tasks are always achievable for you - training gives you the ability to 'take 10', or higher as you get better, even though it might not allow you to achieve anything greater than your ability. I like a +1 bonus to the skill per training level and a minimum dice roll, so you get better *and* more reliable.</blockquote>
