So? It gives you all kinds of powerful tricksy dicksy doozy woozies. The said perks don't. How are they munchkin and the TbaM not?

If it's just a matter of the 1 point not being enough cost, I can't see why. How often does a tie happen in a Contest? Why is giving up your actions one turn not a reasonable cost for the ability to outthink an opponent in a subsequent turn?

Why not? They each a have a point cost intended to allow them to be scaled against eachother. They are supposed to be comparable through that method.

Okay, but why? I don't think it happens very often, does it?

It can mean up to 12.5% increase success.

Really? Well okay, 12.5% is a bit more than I expected. The price in its present form is possibly a problem.

The price of a Perk is one point. Period. Consequence: this is not a balanced trait for a Perk.

That fact had penetrated my consciousness some time ago, but thanks.
