Skill Question


Pathfinder Adventure Card Game General Discussion


I misspoke in an earlier thread, I have another question...

Would this work and what dice would be roles in the follow situation?

Seoni needs to make a wisdom or perception check and she has Night Watch in her hand. Can she use the night watch to add the d10 to make a perception check, even though she does not have the perception skill? According to the rulebook she can make a check for a skill she does not have but uses a d4. Does this mean the check would be d4 + d10, assuming this can be done?

Thanks again in advance for any advice.


Yes, unless i hear otherwise, that's correct. d4 + d10.

Yep. Mr. Night Watch can see things Seoni can't.

Funny that you get a d10+d6+2 (average 11) when he's helping Harsk, but only d10+d4 (average 8) when he's helping Seoni. I guess he's distracted by the outfit.


I forget which person is doing what in the pool scene... but yeah I can see the distraction. Thanks for the advise. Have to say again that the game is pretty solid so far.


I think I just confused myself. In the situation above from J Scot Shady, Seoni needs to make a wisdom or perception check and she has the Night Watch card in her hand. From what I read above, she has 2 options.

Make a wisdom check at d6
Make a perception check with the nights watch at d4+d10

But she cannot make the wisdom check with the night watch at d6+d10.

Is that correct?


Correct!


Ok i have a question that may have already been answered.
if i explore a location and come across a boon or a bane for that matter that has a check for instance. potion has a check of wisdom craft i am using Ezren do i roll against my wisdom or do i have to have the craft skill listed on character card? I went ahead and rolled a d4 + played a blessing but should i have rolled d8 since that is Ezren wisdom? Just a little confused on this subject.


You could have rolled your wisdom die.
You select just one of the skills (wisdom, int, dex etc.) that is listed above the check number. If you have one of the skills that's the one i would use, otherwise your die is d4. Although there are some player cards that will add die to a skill you don't have, so if you use those you still roll a d4 in addition to the die the player card grants.


10-4 Thanks for the clarification.


Ok, side question. I have seen a few cards require a Craft Check to acquire. (Like potions) Who actually has a craft check? I did not see it on any of the cards so I was confused on how anyone would even make that roll outside of the generic 1d4 everyone gets to have.

Scarab Sages

I predict that Damiel has the craft skill.

Liberty's Edge

Maybe there's gonna be items or allies later that give bonus dies on Craft...

I will confirm that none of the currently available characters have the Craft skill, and no cards in the Rise of the Runelords set let characters use a die better than d4 for a Craft check.
