Using Talents AND Wildcard Skills Together

Phantasm · 10-29-2014, 02:13 PM

I'm going to chime in on the side of "Talents as a Conditional Bonus to Wildcards" side of things. I've done this in my own games, and it hasn't broken anything. In fact, it's given some folks who were debating whether to take higher levels of certain skills instead of a wildcard (as the wildcard is itself quite expensive) incentive to take a level or two of a 5-point Talent to complement the wildcard, giving them a bit of the edge they were looking for in those areas.
