It was stated that a bevy of +1 bonus mundane items could break the game. And my point wasn't a level of broken-ness in a singular item. It's the thought that a single mundane pair of boots can make your character perform 2 levels higher than he currently can. I alos still hold to the idea that a character who is good at Stealth is already wearing the proper footwear and not walking around in clunky footgear.You missed the point entirely then. The +5 bonus for being trained is an abstract bonus. It follows to some of us that said training helps the character choose the right tools for the job and use them properly. The entire point is not to get bogged down in the minutae of the tools, but to instead let the abstract nature of the rules work as they are intended.</blockquote>
