[QUOTE="Tony Vargas, post: 5818791, member: 996"] Skill Challenges get run different ways by different DMs, but many require everyone to roll, so if you can make a case for it, you try to roll a skill you're good at. Fighters have crap for social skills. The one social skill they have in class - Intimidate - is used in sample social SCs as an example of an automatic failure. Fighters are still pretty hosed. That could use some improvement: better skill lists for fighters that give them something to do in each of the other two pillars, at least some of the time. Also, a 'they also serve who merely stand and wait' clause for SCs might be called for - especially if they go through with balancing across pillars, so you have characters who must suck at exploration or interaction or both to be good at combat - SCs in such a system would be horrid failures if the dead weight wasn't allowed to, well, wait.
