[QUOTE="Kerrick, post: 2154774, member: 4722"] I think it's an excellent idea. It enables the low-skill classes, like fighter, to gain a few extra class skills so that they don't have to waste what few skill points they get in skills they need(Spot, Listen, etc.). Now, I'm not saying the fighter would (or should) be on a par with the rogue; if it were me, I'd just dump an extra point or two in here and there, so that I could make those checks when it was really important (like when he's on guard duty). That's what I was going to suggest. I like this idea - I think I'll run by my DM. I'd stick with +3, personally. I like the idea of Paired Skill Focus (I've thought about that a bit before too), but I've got my own twist on those paired skill feats (which might not work with this one): You can choose a +2 bonus with both skills, or +3 with one.
