Take 10 / Take 20 explanations missing

[Falconer210]

First of all I'd like to complement everyone from the Pathfinder team on a great job. It looks good so far.

I do have one comment about the Beta rules:

In several places the book mentions take 10 and take 20 on certain skills (rogue, bard, certain spells). I've searched the PDF for the pathfinder explanation of the take 10 and take 20 rules, but I can't find them anywhere.

That means I have to rely on the definitions of the 3.x rulebooks for those mechanisms. I take it that some sort of rule on this was supposed to be included?

Cheers,

Falconer

The general rule for the Beta is "if it's not in Beta, use the 3.5 rules". Take 10/20 is one of those cases.

Yep, to keep the Beta to a reasonable cost, we had to limit the size. So anything that stayed the same as 3.5 was left out. Those items will be added for the final hardcover, but for right now, if it isn't in the Beta, assume that the 3.5 rules are being used.

Taking 10 and 20 will be in the final rule set. Thanks for the heads-up though.
