A couple of questions about race/class abilities
Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2012 9:32 pm
So I bought the game, and almost immediately also bought the compendium. Thank you for making such an awesome game and such an amazing manual as well. 
That being said, I have a couple of quick questions that I couldn't find the answers to :
1. Rogues get the Perception skill and Sorcerers get SESI / SOSI. Are there things that a Rogue will notice that a sorcerer won't?
2. Some races get +% to certain skills as their racial ability. For example, barbarians get +1% critical strike per 5 levels and hobbits get + open locks. Do these count if the base class doesn't have the skill to start with? Or will they only add to an existing skill? In other words, does a level 5 barbarian warrior have a 1% chance to instantly kill with his attacks? Or does that part of the barbarian racial only apply to rogues and hunters?
Thanks in advance!
