Number of Trained Skills

[Rhyst]

Maybe I missed it. But likely 2nd Edition doesn't do this. In 1st Edition, if you bump up your Int Mod you get that many more skill ranks (per level).

Each class says "you are trained in X+(Int Mod) skills". Clearly this means at character creation. But does that mean that at a later level, if I increase my Int Mod by 1, do I get 1 more Trained Skill? (clearly not ranks per level).

Pretty sure you do. Everything is (and should be) retroactive, as it was in the playtest. And the Orb confirmed that languages are retroactive.

Under the Leveling Up section on page 31 of the CRB:

Quote:

If an ability boost increases your character's Intelligence modifier, they become trained in an additional skill and language.

Ah so yup, I did miss it. Thank you.
