They should let the number of skill points dictate the limitation on how high skills can be bought up.  It  is better for story. I don't know how many times I have read stories with fighter-types who definitely had Spot and Listen but weren't necessarily rangers. Even a common fighter in a fantasy world would need to know how to live off the land and have a plethora of other skills to be a decent mercernary. A less limited skill selection would go along way in allowing players to more fully develop concepts like the city dwelling noble fighter with diplomacy skills or the frontier dwelling wizard who knows how to live off the land.Class skills are totally unncessary. I hope they eventually do away with them. They aren't really needed as the number skill points is an already stringent enough limitation on skills.</blockquote>
