2. Bairdotr, a woman supposedly raised by animals in the wild, still doesn't have the Pet Pal-skill?
Companions can't talk to most people anyway. That would be a waste of a Talent slot, much like Wolgraff's Escapist.
Wograf is quite cripled by starting talents.
Replace Escapist and Light Stepper
by
Swift Footed and Walk it off
Dagger focused man dont need Perception at all. So if any, then Light stepper suits to archer --> Bairdoter
Light Stepper is actually better suited for melee classes, as they must walk into the fray, whereas archers/casters can stand back.. With Light Stepper, the rogue can spot the traps on his own.. The archer wont see traps the Rogue is about to step on, fgroma distance.. Unless you're bringing your archer in that close, in which case, its being used wrong...
Perception does much more than shooting over long distances.. Crit Chance, Starting Action Points, Detect Traps, Initiative, and Accuracy when shooting over long distances..Far more useful, than simply the Ranger class....
I find Wolgruff to be specc'd just fine for his 'Role'.. He is a Thief, afterall.. Ofcourse, if your playing this rpg as notyhing more than a combat sim/action game, then ofcourse you'll find anything not combat related to be gimped, or "crippled"..
