Skills and the Planes

[Flobby]

Just curious... with the knowledge skill gone, any thoughts on how knowledge and survival in the planes will be handled?

Er? More details required.

They've essentially said the vast majority of the planes is more hospitable to life, these days. (in W+M)

So no checks are normally required.

These are my guesses.

Arcana - Shadowfell, Elemental Chaos
Nature - Feywild
Religion - Astral Sea

And good luck finding out information on the Far Realm.

Primarily, I would agree, but IMO, any skill can be found useful in most situations if you think about it hard enough or out-of-the-box enough. For example, one might be able to detect the direction of the "flow" of arcane energies in the feywild, but a religious scholar would be able to tell you where Correlon is supposed to live.
