Your current bonus's stand as follows:

Who:2
What:1
Where:1
When:4
Why:1
I had to look this up.. sweet!

If I understand Deduction in MH2, the GM makes the deduction roll in secret to conceal the skill they're using, but the player/party call for the roll or keeps looking for clues to add to the cumulative bonus, is that right? Or does the bonus Persist and it takes a new clue to trigger a new roll?

And I have enough for an IQ+2 roll for a deduction on the Who? I'd be delighted!

IQ+2

3d6
1 + 6 + 2 = 9 = Successs by a margin of 8

You can also try trawling for rumors of "new and exciting discoveries"
Thank you!

Oh wow, you're right... You and I did it for Monster Hunters I have it on Marcus Savage's Character's sheet at +14 CF and I assumed it was standard somewhere. If it was house-ruled, it was your house! :) It was 36K in sig gear!

SO... you just tell me. Vassarious will simply take what is given when they ask as sweetly as can be for good protection that won't upset the locals on a casual inspection. Can we use a crystal on a necklace/tether as a communicator (or have we picked something else already)?

Faceman - 3d6 <= 14
6 + 3 + 1 = 10 ... success

Tradecraft as a Supporting Skill

3d6 <= 14
6 + 6 + 5 = 17 ... fails to improve the situation
