The "Special" entry for the Acrobatics skill (Beta, p56) states that "If you are proficient in the Acrobatics skill," you get more benefit from fighting defensively or going total defense... however, I can't find what being proficient in a skill means. The closest I have found is in the discussion of class skills on page 53, which reads "Your character is most proficient in these skills." The use of the word "most" implies that having it as a class skill doesn't make you proficient in that skill, and having ranks in a skill makes you Trained, but neither of those (explicitly) give you proficiency in the skill...

Can anyone point me to where being proficient in a skill is defined? Thanks
