In Psionics Expanded, the blue favored class bonus for cryptics reads as follows:
Cryptic: Add +1 to Craft checks.
So, what, all craft checks all the time get +1? This just doesn't seem balanced to me. I feel like it's supposed to read "Cryptic: Add +1 to Craft checks made with a single craft skill of your choosing." or somesuch.

If I made a goblin cryptic and I took that fc bonus it would go on Craft (traps) because then I would be ridiculously good with that skill in a short time.
Typically, any time we have had a psionic character they always chose +1 PP instead of anything else offered.
I always lean towards the power points myself, but the idea of getting +2 to craft traps per level, in addition to my normal bonuses to it, is irresistible. I just want to be sure that I'm not getting a +1 to every trap skill, because that would be silly.
The DSP crew does try to check up on these boards, but with everything going on with the kickstarter you may want to check the actual Dreamscarred Press forums. It's quite possible your question has already been answered there.
Good question.
It should be a single Craft skill, not all of them.
Figured. Thanks Jeremy!
