Acrobatics : increasing Dodge bonus too easy


Skills and Feats


According to the Beta rulebook, being proficient in the Acrobatics skill increases the Dodge bonus when fighting defensively or using full defense. If being proficient = having 1 rank, then I believe it's too easy to obtain the Dodge bonus increase. It makes taking 1 rank in Acrobatics more powerful than taking a Feat.

I think they should get rid of the dodge bonus entirely, in my Cotct campaign ALL the characters have at least one rank in Acrobatics. I think the skill is good enough without the dodge bonus benefit.
