PU 2, p. 21 also takes "Dual-Weapon Attack, Both attacks must target the same foe" and "Musical Influence, Only on tame pets" for example, as opposed to simple, full-time "Dual-Weapon Attack" and "Musical Influence".
For worlds with TBAM or WM, you can purchase a cinematic skill for only a perk. See this thread, and this post in particular.
