Survey Wildlife recall knowledge skill


Rules Discussion


When you use Survey Wildlife to Recall Knowledge about the creatures whose marks you've seen, what skill do you roll against? Does the GM use whichever of Arcana/Nature/Religion/Occultism the creatures fall under, or do you use Survival (making SW much more useful)? Or does only Nature ever apply and you'll just fail to identify non-Nature creatures?


I guess you use the normal skill for the Recall Knowledge check as for identifying creatures.
So Divine for undead, Nature for animals and so on...


"Attempt a Survival check against a DC determined by the GM
based on how obvious the signs are. On a success, you can
attempt a Recall Knowledge check with a –2 penalty to learn
more about the creatures just from these signs. If you’re a
master in Survival, you don’t take the penalty." Based on wording, you use the standard creature's RK skill (arcana/crafting/nature/occult/religion/society), and it just lets you make a RK without looking directly at the thing.
