Capture languages as one skill called linguistics. All Arcane casting DCs would be set by INT. Insight would be the INT save with this idea. Insight and Investigation get in a fight and the figuring stuff out part comes out and goes to Insight and the rest goes to Investigate.WIS Perception is the only skill here now. It is one of the most important to an adventurer so no contest on if this is still a valid skill and or not a dump stat. The save gets tied to Perception. This save is utilized as the passive perception check would, it also is the check for surprise, it also is the check for initiative - gaining your bearing on the battlefield at the onset of a battle. All Innate casting DCs would be set by WIS.CHA Deception, Intimidation, Performance, Persuasion are all still here. I would add Will to the skill list as well as all the tools that apply here. I might also include a leadership skill. I would make the Will skill tie to the CHA save. All Divine casting DCs would be set by CHA. For casters:Arcane (INT)WizardBardDruid*Ranger*Rogue (Arcane Trickster)Fighter (Eldritch Knight)Innate (WIS)SorcererMonk (Elements)Barbarian (Totem)Divine (CHA)ClericPaladinWarlock*Nature magic has more traditionally fit into Divine though I think they fit better as Arcane, to each there own.</blockquote>
