RPM Buying Paths as defaults from Thaumatology
Hello! I have yet another RPM question. It's distinct from my other questions, so I decided to create another thread (let me know if I am wrong).
I know, that default level of paths could not be higher then 12. But what about buying from default? Example: I have IQ 15 and Thaumatology 18 (so path skills 12). Paying one point for a path, buying from IQ, would give the same 12 level. But, if buying from default works for paths, I could buy a path from thaumatology. It would give me level 13 for one point. Does it work like this? |

Yeah. Unless there are special rules for buying from default, the normal rules apply.

Re: RPM Buying Paths as defaults from Thaumatology
Buying from default reduces the cost of a skill by what would have been the cost to get the default if it wasn't for the default
So if you have a default of 12, and that would have cost 1 point to buy from IQ if not for the default, buying up from there costs 1 point less. So instead of 1, 2, 4, +4/level, it would be 0, 1, 3, +4/level.

Thanks! Was not obvious to me because of that default cap.
