Warrior priests and secondary skills

Unread post by Jefram_denkar »

I am just wondering about something in the Mysteries of Magic on priests.

It says you lose your secondary skills>

But is their an official errata if it is ALL secondary skills or just your level 1 secondary skills?

My own gut (as a GM) says just your level one (Otherwise it is an even bigger penalty them taking Major psionics).

What is the communities thoughts on that. Seems to be extra harsh to take all secondary skills from the priest for the bonuses you get.

Thoughts?
I've got an advanced pre-rifts energy rifle, A soul drinking rune blade, living bio armor, and a hover truck full of nukes. So why do I feel under equipped for this??? (Sir Joe the Gardner 7th level Ogre Keeper of the garden on his first encounters with the Mechanoids)

I'd agree with the level one skills being gone; my version was a fair bit different.

A strict reading means that they do not get any secondary skills at char creation and do not get any of the level up secondary skills.

In other words, unless the character intentionally seeks out learning a skill (or GM acts to give the char a skill), they do not learn new skills outside their related skills.

Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.
