Duelist class page
« on: June 08, 2006, 04:53:34 AM »
In the PrC description for the Duelist class, it lists "Perform" as a class skill.  Is this right?  I can see "Persuade" (especially since Persude 5 is a prerequisite) and/or "Taunt" being class skills (but they're not listed), but "Perform"?

The Duelist PrC in PnP requires ranks in Perform to take.  Since only bards can put points into Perform in NWN, to have that requirement would limit the class to only bard multiclassers.  I assume Perform is a class skill to maintain the flavor of the class, since the original intent by the design (I assume) was to obtain the swashbuckler feel of such greats of film and literary classics as the Dread Pirate Roberts and Captain Jack Sparrow. :)

Ah... I see.  I looked it up in the online SRD for the 3.5 rules, and here's what it has for Duelist:  [INDENT]DUELIST Hit Die: d10. Requirements To qualify to become a duelist, a character must fulfill all the following criteria. Base Attack Bonus: +6.  Skills: Perform 3 ranks, Tumble 5 ranks. Feats: Dodge, Mobility, Weapon Finesse. Class Skills The duelist’s class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are Balance (Dex), Bluff (Cha), Escape Artist (Dex), Jump (Str), Listen (Wis), Perform (Cha), Sense Motive (Wis), Spot (Wis), and Tumble (Dex).[/INDENT]   The Layonara PrC has the following:      [INDENT]* Hit Die: d10     * Proficiencies: A duelist is proficient with all simple and martial weapons, but does not gain any armor or shield proficiencies.     * Skill Points: 4 + Intelligence Modifier     * Class Skills: Bluff, Craft Armor, Craft Trap, Craft Weapon, Discipline, Heal, Listen, Parry, Perform, Spot, Tumble     * High Saving Throw(s): Reflex     * BAB: Main Requirements:     * BAB: +6     * Feats: Dodge, Ambidexterity, Mobility, Weapon Proficiency (Martial, Rogue or Elf),Weapon Focus: Rapier     * Skills: Tumble 5 ranks, Persuade 5 ranks[/INDENT]  Since it looks like Persuade was subbed for Perform in order to make this a class not specific to Bards, it just seemed that Persuade ought to have been a class skill rather than Perform.  Oh well...
