Better knowledge skill gets you more true information and less false information. False information could be spurious weaknesses, mistaken emphases ("death slaads are mostly squishy back-line spellcasters"), or over/underestimated stats. Or all three. ("I think vampires have STR 26 and 300 HP and regenerate 30 HP per round; they usually wade into melee and try to suck or all your blood; but they are powerless against anyone who knows their mortal name.")</p></blockquote><p></p>
