Still, knowledge of fey, shadow, elemental, immortal and undead will be far more valuable in later tiers. Nature still claims dragons though (afterall, why would arcana apply to MAGICAL beasts).Arcana does also cover knowledge of the Far Realm, although dungeoneering is used for creatures from the Far Realm (?). In my campaigns, history, religion and arcana tend to be used fairly often. Magical effects and places tend to be linked with arcana (and in a planescape campaign, that's a lot).If you wanted to give more cred to players with Int, you could always do more knowledge based skill challenges (assuming your party has 1 or 2 int focused heroes). It might be easier than changing the game rules, unless this is really bugging your players.</blockquote>
