Talk:Seductress (3.5e Social Archetype)

Skill Points for Skill Bonuses
If the only cost of a Social Archetype is skill points, why do they give you a bonus to skill checks in addition to everything else? --Foxwarrior 00:22, 29 September 2011 (UTC)


 * It must compete against other social archetype AND the bonus is very situational, only 50% of the humanoid population is even eligible, unless you are level 5 that is (level 6 seductress at this point you dumped 8 skill points in the archetype). Sure 8 skills points for +6 bluff/sense motive/diplomacy is AWESOME... and other benefits too! But all of those are situational and are hardly usable in combat (even a level 6 Seductress will have a hard time getting someone 'attracted' in combat, other social archetype have similar gimmick (Noble=Respect, Thug=Afraid etc etc.).


 * tdrl skill points that could be used for actual skills ranks/skill tricks/other archetype used for a bigger, but situational bonus. --Leziad 00:29, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
