However, assuming that the druid put ranks into Knowledge: Nature, he already knows so much about the forest in general that all he is doing is gaining a little more data to add to his already considerable amount of knowledge. So, in this particular instance, I don't think that the druidic example applies.On a similar note, I do believe that a high wisdom but low intelligence cleric would need to have a the complex intricacies of a social situation explained to him, if he could not observe the goings on first hand. Recognizing the behaviors in the first place would be a purview of Wisdom (as recognized by the system with the use of Sense Motive, a Wis based skill). So, I would say that a high wisdom character would more easily recognize that the soicla circles existed (as in who is consorting with who) but might have a harder time putting all the pieces together to see the bigger picture.Note that in either situation, I believe that given enough time, a low intelligence high wisdom character will eventually learn what it is they are trying to learn, but will just take a bit more time that the +Int -Wis character.</blockquote>
