[QUOTE="FireLance, post: 2708721, member: 3424"] 3.5e bards and rangers both get 6 skill points per level. If you've been allocating 4 skill points per level, maybe you can ask the DM nicely to let you put the extra skill points in Listen, Knowledge (arcana) and Profession (astrologer) ;). Humans get an extra skill point per level, and if your Intelligence is 14, that's another two skill points for a total of 9 skill points per bard level. Non-permanent boosts to Intelligence, such as from a [I]+2 headband of intellect[/I], don't grant extra skill points, so if you have an Intelligence of 12 boosted to 14 by a [I]+2 headband of intellect[/I], you only get 8 skill points per bard level. Even if you only get 8 skill points per bard level, that should net you 24 skill points for 3 bard levels. That and the 4 skill points from a level of Eldritch Knight should get you 28 skill points. Will that be enough? It's hard to tell since you didn't provide the actual skill ranks, just the overall bonus. [/QUOTE]
