Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords/Skills

Intelligence modifier (INT) resulting from points allocated at character generation and on level up determines how many skill points a class is granted at those times:


 * Character generation


 * Level up

Characters are always granted at least four skill points at character generation, and at least one on level up:

All points do not have to be invested at character generation or level up, so they can be saved for a future level up. After becoming a different class, a character’s skill points on level up are determined by the new class, but the class skills of the earlier class are retained and those of the new class are gained. Class skills cost one point to raise one rank, while cross-class skills cost two points to raise one rank:

feats can change a cross-class skill to a class skill. Points can be invested in class skills to maximum rank equal to level + 3, while they can only be invested in cross-class skills to maximum rank equal to [ (level + 3) / 2].

Computer Use

 * Related Attribute :


 * Computer Use allows a character to slice computer programs using disposable logic rams called computer spikes. A character might disable gun turrets or flood a patrol area, with more complicated tasks requiring more spikes. A high rank in this skill reduces the number of spikes required by 1 (to a minimum of 1) for every 4 points total, including attribute score modifiers.

Demolitions

 * Related Attribute :


 * Demolitions can be used to set, recover or disarm mines. Such devices range in difficulty from minor (DC10 to set) to devastating (DC30 to set). Attempting to disarm the mine adds +5 to the DC. Attempting to recover the mine adds +10 to the DC. This skill cannot be used untrained.

Demolitions is a class skill for the following:

🇨🇴 🇨🇴 🇨🇴 🇨🇴

Difficulty Classes for setting, disabling or recovering mines are reduced by 5 on Easy but increased by 5 on Difficult. According to, DC increases to disarm and recover mines are cumulative rather than separate:

Successfully setting, disabling or recovering mines requires that the sum of Demolitions skill rank and a d20 roll is equal to or greater than the DC. When not in combat 20 is always rolled, so minimum skill rank is DC - 20.

A maximum of 15 mines can be set in any map. While friendly mines can normally be recovered without a DC check, after leaving a map and returning to it any mines left behind can only be recovered after a successful DC check (although they remain friendly).

Hostile mines must be detected by passing an check before they can be disabled or recovered. Disabling a mine always grants experience equal to 10 * character level, while that granted for recovering a mine depends on its strength and character level:

Mines can also be set to open locks instead of bashing or. Unlike bashing this does not result in broken items, but unlike Security this does not grant any experience.

Stealth

 * Related Attribute :


 * Stealth governs the use of camouflage devices to enter Stealth Mode. If a character equips such a device and activates Stealth Mode, opponents must make an check versus the character's Stealth skill or be unable to detect them, even if the character is in a direct line of sight. A character in Stealth Mode can set, disable and recover mines. Party members will not automatically enter combat while in this mode. Combat cancels Stealth Mode. Stealth Mode will not work without a camouflage unit. Units of higher quality grant a bonus to the skill. This skill cannot be used untrained.

Stealth is a class skill for the following:

Awareness

 * Related Attribute :


 * Awareness governs the ability of a character to spot objects or enemies hidden by . If a successful check of this skill is made against the Stealth skill of an enemy or the DC of a mine, the enemy or object is noticed and becomes visible. Awareness is always active, but results are best while a character is moving slowly. Running imparts a -5 penalty to any checks of the skill.

Awareness is a class skill for all classes.

According to, Difficulty Classes for detecting mines are reduced by 5 on Easy but increased by 5 on Difficult.

Successfully detecting hostile mines requires that the sum of Awareness skill rank and a d20 roll is equal to or greater than the DC. When not in combat 20 is always rolled, so minimum skill rank is DC - 20.

Persuade

 * Related Attribute :


 * Only the main player character can select this skill during level-up. Persuade options appear in dialogue when interesting or sensitive information is available that a character might otherwise be reluctant to reveal. When selected, rank in this skill is compared with how extreme the request is (Difficulty Class low, medium, or high, relative to player level). A guard might easily agree to increase a bounty, but convincing him to leave his post would be much harder.
