[QUOTE="Bleoberis De Ganis, post: 4727601, member: 77687"] This isn't very important, but I was thinking about the skills we have been cut down to and it occurred to me that at least one was missing. Nature - deals with the natural enviroment and creatures of the wilderness. Dungeoneering - deals with the underground cave/tunnel/dungeon enviroment and creatures in these places. Streetwise - deals with the urban enviroment and the lower classes. [B][U]Etiquette[/U][/B] - deals with the higher ruling classes and the courtly/official enviroment. (Heraldry, manners, procedure, chivalry, galantry, honour, duals by combat, perhaps even law, etc) If you were to try to identify nobles, their coats of arms, rumours about them, how much influence they have, how to survive a feast without making a numpty of yourself, manage to get an audience with the King, impress a lady of the court, tournaments, etc, you would use this skill. The other skills don't seem to cover any of this - Diplomacy, Bluff, Insight and Intimidate don't specifically cover this enviroment. For the clergy, such as meeting with a High Priest or Bishop, I suppose you could use Religion. For heraldry purposes (not that it would come up often to care much) could be determined using the History skill. What classes would this be a Class Skill for? [B]Paladin[/B] (Definitely) [B]Bard[/B] (Absolutely and the only one to make sense having both Etiquette and Streetwise as class skills.) [B]Warlord[/B] (Probably) [B]Cleric[/B] ? [B]Wizard[/B] ? [B]Invoker[/B] ? [B]Avenger[/B] (Not likely) [B]Fighter[/B] (Not likely) [B]Sorcerer[/B] (Not likely) [B]Swordmage[/B] (Not likely) [B]Rogue[/B] (No) [B]Ranger[/B] (No) [B]Warlock[/B] (No) No Primal classes. [B]Barbarian[/B] (Absolutley no) [B]Druid[/B] (Absolutley no) [B]Shaman[/B] (Absolutely no) [B]Warden[/B] (Absolutely no) Does anyone else think this is missing? (Does anyone really care?) Are there any other skills that seem to be missing? (that could not be covered by another skill easily.) [/QUOTE]
