Pathfinder Unchained: Rogue


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


I am looking for more information on the Rogue's Edge abilities. There is nothing on d20pfsrd describing this feature.

Thanks!


The Rogue edge are skill unlocks. You get a limited number of skill unlocks based on level, and you can get more by taking talents or feats. A skill unlock basically gives you special abilities based on the skill and the number of ranks you have in the skill. The minimum is 5 ranks, and you gain another ability for every multiple of 5. So you get an ability at 5, 10, 15 and 20 ranks. Each skill has its own set of abilities.


The Skill edge entries are under each skill. You have to go to the specific skill page (like where they list the DCs and descriptions of skills) and at the bottom of the page they will list hat you can do if you have the Rogue's Edge ability.


I do have to say, skill unlocks are a very positive sign that Paizo listens though.

When the playtest for Advanced Class Guide was going on, I was one of one for the more vocal people that complained about the rogue being left behind. What I initially suggested a lot was a "Advanced Skills Guide" that would cover skills more in depth but also allow certain new abilities if you have so many ranks and give rogues certain perks to make them true masters of skills. I am see Paizo took the idea and implemented it into pathfinder unchained :P
