[QUOTE="Codename: GhostFox, post: 182412, member: 4113"] Just some putting down some thoughts about GhostFox's skill set. I will post an updated version of the skills and gear later on today with the final skill and budget point allocations. I read you FIVE by FIVE, Control. I'll definitely sink 2 or 3 points into Listen. I will also sink 1 point for each of GhostFox's bread-and-butter skills: Move Silently, Hide, Jump and Tumble. The synergy bonuses will help a lot. I know it sounds munchkiney but I'm just trying to optimize my character's strengths. And with the tough to beat DCs that we encounter, every bit helps. She could also use a point into a couple of these skills: electronics, search, spot and open lock. The bulk of her personal gear will remain the same - I'll remove a couple of items and replace them with some other stuff. Perhaps the knife and binoculars can be purchased as part of the mission budget instead. Don't really want to buy a lot of surveillance gear for her personal stuff because she isn't trained in survaillance anyway. *BUT* IMO, surveillance is a valuable skill for any agent. Surveillance isn't a class skill for Fixer's and it's for Trained use only. Luddite is pretty capable with surveillance and one of other surveillance agents is gone (Roman - may he rest in peace). Do you think it would help if I put in 2 or 4 skill points in Surveillance to buy 1 or 2 ranks? I have 10 skill points to work with and I will have just enough to boost listen and the other bread-and-butter B&E skills. I put 2 ranks into Languages during chargen, that didn't come into play but this time around hopefully that might come in handy sometime. Also weak on the profession skills - a decent cover is a must. She could always pose as a "security consultant" but that's usually a dead giveaway for "covert operative". I suppose a decent cover is better than none, and at least she is sticking to something she knows. Will also post more comments later. [/QUOTE]
