Profession Bonuses
« on: June 09, 2008, 09:37:25 AM »
The book says (p.91): Profession Bonuses: Listed here are the bonuses that this profession gets in specific skill areas. These bonuses modify the indicated skill category(s) bonus(es).

Now with Weapon Group does this mean that a Fighter gets +20 on ALL weapon groups or just one?

I suggest you to look at the Master Profession Table on page 116 of CL for profession bonuses, as they slightly differ from the core book's ones (mainly because CL introduces new categories)  ;)
I suppose a magician might, he admitted, but a gentleman never could.

There are 3, skill, category and group.

- Skill: 1 weapon, for example broadsword.
- Category: similar skills, for example 1-h edge weapon.
- Group: all.

You can see the great difference in tech/trade, in this case the group is a huge set of different skills, I think there is no profession that have bonus in tech/trade GROUP.

Prof bonuses add up to 50, though some prof's have effectively more than 50 because they have group mods.

I have allowed players to spread those 50 ponts however they feel, in sets of at least five and no more than 20.  I had to keep my eyes on how many group bonuses were being handed out, but I never had to do anythinf about it (my mental rule of thumb was no more than 25 points in groups).
