Has there been any word from the Larian Team on whether this is finally going to get fixed for Patch 8?
Maybe have the game start, after character creation, by granting players a unique one time use Item that allows you to choose a skill proficiency of your choice if there is such an overlap? And have the boon be taken away whenever someone respecs with Withers of course, to try and prevent any abuse.
Or have Withers the ability to grant the missing skill proficiencies?
Whatever solution the Team may arrive at, it does seem odd that something this well known and not insignificant to so many players has gone untouched for years. I do understand that it isn't the absolute biggest thing in the world, but it is still odd that's it's gone on for as long as it has.
