Re: [pcgen] How to handle skill points from an item #pathfinder

It does, although if you're just adding TL, why not use the headband?

This is the solution if you want bespoke allocation of skills on a per level basis that doesn't

let you exceed your level in skill points in a given skill and goes away if you take off the item.

Here is one I prepared earlier:

Totally not broken Int booster†<tab>KEY:My Int boosting item

<tab>BONUS:STAT|INT|2|TYPE=Inherent

<tab>BONUS:SKILLRANK|Perception|floor(TL+3/4)|TYPE=GMs pet‡

<tab>BONUS:SKILLRANK|Stealth|floor(TL+1/2)|TYPE=GMs pet

<tab>BONUS:SKILLRANK|Knowledge (dungeoneering)|TL|TYPE=GMs pet

Level    Perception   Stealth   Knowledge (dungeoneering)

1        1            1         1

2        1            1         2

3        1            2         3

4        1            2         4

5        2            3         5

6        2            3         6

I do not believe there is a way to do this in the GUI, you will have to edit a text file.

My 2c, when Paizo makes James the official FAQ writer I'll accept his forum posts

Does BONUS:SKILLRANK allow variables?  Could one use BONUS:SKILLRANK|Bluff,Listen|TL to give bonus skill ranks that automatically increase with character level?
