Half-elf: Skill Focus or "Dual-Minded"? [Pathfinder]
« on: July 20, 2011, 11:52:54 PM »
Playing a 4th level venerable half-elf Synthesist Summoner with a 16 Int and 14 Wis.  Trying to decide wether to take the default Half-Elf Skill Focus racial (would choose perception).  Or take the Dual-Minded alternate class feature which gives +2 to Will saves.  Skill focus is a bit better in Pathfinder than in 3.E (get a +6 to the skill at 10th level), and I will be the party scout.  On the other hand, saving throws save lives....

Thoughts?

I'd say go with the perception. My players have good radars and goddamn if I don't have to work at ambushing with anything ever.
The mind transcends the body.
It's also a little cold because of that.
Please get it a blanket.

I wish I could read your mind,
I can barely read mine.

"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"
