What am I missing at character advancement (level up)?


Rules Questions


Everyone leveled up in my group, and I seem to have missed something on all of their skill ranks.

For example, let's take the Wizard. CRB says they get 2 + Int mod ranks at level up. Her mod is +4 so she gets 6 ranks. I leveled her up in Hero Lab to see if I had it right, and it said she gets 7 ranks. This would make sense if I chose the extra skill rank from her favoured class, but we went with the extra hit point instead. If I select the extra skill rank instead, then the Skills tab says I have 8 ranks to allot.

So where is that extra skill rank coming from? What does Hero Lab see that I don't?

It was the same with the Cleric. 2 + int mod, and the Cleric has int mod of 0, yet Hero Lab says he gets 3 skill ranks.

For the fighter, again they should get 2 + int mod. His int mod is +1 so he should get 3 per level, yet at 2nd level he now has 8 skill ranks (4 per level) in Hero Lab.

The rogue is the only one that makes sense to me. CRB says 8 + int mod. His int mod is 0, so he gets 8 per level. At level 2, he now has 16 skill ranks in Hero Lab.

Thanks.

Which of them are humans?


Humans get one additional skill rank per level. I'm guessing the Wizard, Cleric, and Fighter are all humans, while the Rogue is another race.


Jiggy has a point. Humans get 1 extra skill point automatically built-in.

Edit: Darn. Ninja'd the Ninja.


If they are human they get an extra skill rank at every character level.


Well don't I feel dumb now :) Yes, they are humans. That answers it.
