Default Re: Waterfowl: Amphibious or Racial Swimming Skill?

Walk On keeping you high and dry has a bunch of knock-on effects. You can plant your feet for a stable position, you can jump or climb from a position fully out of the water, and your weapons are well out of the wet for use as well as wear-and-tear.

Amphibious doesn't change the basics of how you relate to the swimming medium. Something fairly far from human could justify parts that are reliably well clear of the water when at the surface, of course.

EDIT: not saying the price is necessarily wise, though.
