Sounds good For now, I'll go with all four ranks in pan pipe then, and just use the Cha bonus with the other types - Bardic music and it's progression will be a little useless if the ranks are diluted. I may broaden if I decide not to go that route.doghead said:Just had a look at the SRD. For what its worth, both say the same thing:
At Level 3, a character could have 6 ranks in six different areas for 6 skill points. At level 5 8 ranks in 8 areas. It seems a bit counter-intuiative, normally mastery comes at the expense of breadth.
I think that I will stick with the SRD description above.
Like with Nate's Craft (blacksmith, armoursmith, silversmith type stuff), allowing Skill Focus to be taken as a +2 bonus across multiple types of perform (instead of the +3 to a single Skill) seems reasonable. Some synergies also make sense - like Act and Comedy, or (Instrument type) and Sing.
Looking at the SRD on Wizards, I see you're right, BTW. I had bookmarked the one on www.http://www.opengamingfoundation.org/srd/srdskillsii.rtf, which, despite saying it's the 3.5 SRD, is, well, different. (I gotta buy me those 3.5e books sometime )
