like this idea, but how about something even simpler: you can roll a bailiwick skill roll for any skill, at -10to level 10, -15 to level 20, -20 at epic. we could roll this into the bailiwick skill rules and voila, we're done. :) | like this idea, but how about something even simpler: you can roll a bailiwick skill roll for any skill, at -10to level 10, -15 to level 20, -20 at epic. we could roll this into the bailiwick skill rules and voila, we're done. :) | ||
The issue with tying it to a skill, especially a bailiwick skill, is the player can really put their thumb on that scale, with magic items, feats, etc. to the point that a -20 is better (and probably significantly better) than anything I would want to give them with this default skill check. Having it be a completely new number means we could add whatever support (or lack of support) we want to it. (As a note, the difference between easy and hard at level 35 is about 33 points. I would want to run the numbers if we're both okay with this idea, but I think it would be fairly dramatically different from your highest skill... the point being, you /couldn't/ use your calculated skill (i.e. stat + basis) for a skill you have no ranks in, and this would possibly be worse than that calculated value. | |||
