Perform

Unread post by Laenor »

With the addition of more Kaedrin's PRC, can we have all classes able to put points in the perform skill, please ?
Otherwise, classes like "Stormsinger" are a pain to level, requiring to alternate between classes to improve their perform skill.

Cheers ! :)

Probably not all classes Laenor.
When we added dervish we did change some classes so they can take perform.

AA, Assassin, Duelist, Fighter, Harper Agent, Guard (NWN9), Ranger, Rogue, Guild Thief (Shadow thief), and Shadow Dancer can take perform.


So some classes here have perform as a cross class skill.

Well it's just that some classes that are meant to multiclass with the new Stormsinger PRC (Cleric, Druids, Sorcerer) can't do it properly because the only way to increase perform is by leveling as a perform class.
That means that a
Bard 4 / Stormsinger 10 / druid, as an example, must keep skill points until he can take a bard or stormsinger level to raise perform.

Since perform boosts nothing but bard abilities or Kaedrin's PRC abilities when it's crossed-classed, I fail to see what's the problem with letting anyone use it as a cross class skill.
It makes actually more sense as a cross-class skill than Use Magic Device does.

Edit.: And it's also the only single skill that can't be cross-skilled, I don't understand why keeping this limitation (?)

If you're taking Perform skill points you darn well better be telling some stories or playing a lute or some other performance around the campfire or WMT or similar public forum. RP your character sheet!
PC1 = Nerys, Emissary and Skald of the Greyfox tribe, roaming north near Secomber
PC2 = Valqis Sanejmeh; far away cartographer, Oracle of Nut at chaltin QulDaq, former navigator of the Sea Seeker, Reader of Candlekeep and sometime performer.

Or I'm just playing a bard that requires Perform to be played as a mesure of their own skills / songs...
