Explain why anyone would ever work together using your rule.Wrong. You cannot grant a bonus to a task your character could not achive alone. The street urchin could not give a bonus to a DC 45 Knowledge check, because he could not achive that task alone, under any circumstances.Even if he could, is it that big of a problem? How many stories have some relative newcomer give the genius character the one little tidbit of information that sparks his "eureka" moment?He could only help with checks up to DC 29.Let's look at the rules:Look at that. Your objections are actually handled by the rules. Your assistance might not be beneficial. Of course, if, by the terms of your hypothetical, neither of you could climb the overhang by yourselves, you can't Aid Another anyway.Once again, your arguments blow away in a puff of smoke like the hot air that they are.</blockquote>
