((Sorry if this is the wrong forum, I expect that variant rules can also be discussed here))
I have been thinking of using the grouped skill variant rule for a future campaign, but I have not seen much comment about it. Has anyone tried it out and how does it work with the Paizo APs?
I have also thought about using the background skills rule, either giving everyone one free background specialty or giving 2 to the 2+ and 4+ skill point classes and 1 to those with 6+ and 8+.

It's something you gotta sell to your group.
On the one hand it evens out the skill gap quite a bit. Fighters and other 2+ Skillpoint classes really benefit from it.
On the other hand some groups like more control over their skill progression, and Grouped skills doesn't really give them that.
on a personal note While I do like the Grouped skills system I have a small problem with all the Knowledge skills being grouped under Scholar.
