Perform Skill

Post by Wild Wombat »

I am looking at skills now and am wondering about Perform, which is now a requirement for Shadow Dancer (the Dance sub category of Perform). I like that it is a requirement. It should be.

But does this mean that a PC has to be a Bard to be a Shadow Dancer? I ask because I thought that a PC could not take ranks in Perform unless s/he is a Bard.

Bear with me ... I may have alot of questions here!

In NWN2, perform is limited to only bards. In ALFA/PnP, anyone can take ranks in perform, but it's only a class skill for bards, monks, and rogues.
