In turn, there would need to be different skill pools for combat, magic, and general skills - each class having a variant number of each to reflect its roles, with Int based bonus skill points becoming more versatile due to being able to be assigned to any of the pools. Needless to say, however, this would be a more complex and in some respects almost completely different system. Personally, I don't like the simplified skill system - or any simplified skill system. Combining Listen and Spot is often suggested, but I personally dislike such - perhaps because I wear glasses but have fine hearing.</blockquote>
