Of Special Note
Initiate of Shar - City of Splendors: Waterdeep pg 144-5 - adds bluff and hide and several spells, must be able to cast 1st level divine spells and patron deity Shar according to the text on pg 145.
Now according to the table on p 144, you add Knowledge (arcana) and Knowledge (dungeoneering), several new spells, must be Blackguard level 1 or cleric level 3 with patron deity Shar.
And it should be noted that according to the primary source rule, text trumps table, so the text version should be used.
Initiate of Shar was also printed in Champions of Ruin, and there both text and table agreed on Bluff/Hide and prerequisites.
Although this might well be considered invalid since Champions of Ruin was from May 2005, and City of Splendors: Waterdeep is from July 2005

Re: Alternative ways to get new Class skills
Several races gain class skills. Bhuka and Uldra always have Knowledge (Nature), Illumians and Changelings always have Speak Language, and Silverbrow Humans always have Disguise, off the top of my head.
Are you going to update the list? Not much point in having it sorted if you gotta read through the entire thread anyway.Last edited by Troacctid; 2015-10-16 at 10:08 PM.

Re: Alternative ways to get new Class skills
Don't planar Sorcerer levels also grant Knowledge (the planes)?
I only know this because of the borked entry reqs of Fiend-blooded, a PrC designed for Sorcerers that a straight Sorcerer cannot enter without some finagling.My winning competition entries: Kinvig Arrumskor | The Great Pumpkinhead | Wynfrith d'Acker

Re: Alternative ways to get new Class skills
Yes, as does Planar Barbarian. I fixed a couple more omissions also. I've ported over and taken up maintenance of the Alternative Class Features thread. The original style was rather freeform, and the problems here were the difference between "add <whatever> to class skill list" and "add <whatever> to class list"; when I searched for "skill" I failed on the latter type entries.
Edit: We're still missing skills from class variants, like Cloistered Cleric. Maybe I'll get to those this weekend.Last edited by Curmudgeon; 2015-10-16 at 09:57 PM.

Re: Alternative ways to get new Class skills
I found it, fell asleep before I could get back, also found another feat while I was there, Scholar, better version of Education, posted it in the first post
made a new section specifically for KoK stuff at the bottom of the feats stuff, with Curmudgeon's note about itLast edited by Bullet06320; 2015-10-22 at 03:24 AM.

Re: Alternative ways to get new Class skills
Here's one I stumbled across:
Profession (siege engineer) is added to the Marshal class list (see Dragon # 348, page 92) to make the class more compatible with Heroes of Battle. This is an optional adjustment, but without a tradeoff.

Re: Alternative ways to get new Class skills
If I wanted my class to have more skill points, the first thing I would do is buy Pathfinder.

If I wanted my class to have more skill points, I'd ask my GM.
