I want to see how it plays out as-is first, and tweak it later if need be.<br /><br />Also, this puts the skill focus on the "this is a skill my character would use but couldn't necessarily select at lvl 1" side more than the "this is the role I've played in my group over the last few levels" side.Sethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09885180647559392840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925039489191363193.post-88033050474983675472010-11-07T09:47:36.932-08:002010-11-07T09:47:36.932-08:00Somehow I misread On The Job training as being dec...Somehow I misread On The Job training as being declared at 1st-level, even though I was also under the impression that bonuses start later than that. <br /><br />I like the rule, though what I like most about it is the piece of identifying the skill recipient in play, and that gets lost in a game that starts after 3rd. In that case, it's very tempting to treat this training skill from the same mentality/perspective of chargen. Perhaps, in the game brewing now, it would be best to have people declare it and take a +2 at 5th-level, after they've gotten an opportunity to see what develops in play. -AtlictoatlAtlictoatlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476689116233694317noreply@blogger.com
