So I built a level 1 alchemists and under skills it says I get 2+Int so for me that 6 skills at level 1 I can train in, right? So here is my question at level 3 do I get another 6 points and I can choose any untrained skill to beconed trained in? Was i reading that right on of 43. Thanks all


Assuming you started with 18 Int you get 6 trained skills at 1st level, yes. At odd levels thereafter you get to improve one skill (untrained or otherwise) by one proficiency tier (with the listed restrictions on going past expert) and that's it. Note in particular that Int doesn't contribute after 1st level.

Yes I did get that 18 Int, so we do not get skill points as per PF1 and it is just 1.....well that changes a few things. That is a bit underwhelming and that my Int doesnt get me more makes me a bit sad. I understand why they went with 1 because we have a smaller skill list but maybe if they said going from untrained to train is 1 skill point and trained to expert is 2 and so on. Additionally I feel I should auto be trained in my Signature Skill. I think that would let Int play a bigger role and let players have more options. But hey thats my 2 cents.
