Skill Combinations

Recommended Posts

In APG as well as a few other books they talk about offering Skill Combinations.  These do not get a cut rate in their pricing like the old Package Deals used to.  However, it does not talk about buying increased ranks in those skills and the cost.  So if a character bought Athlete which gives access to AcrobaticsBreakfall, and Climbing.  

 

So in the information that they give, that skill would likely cost 9 for the combination.  However, when you buy ranks in the Skill, should you price that as just getting ranks in a Skill, and so 2 points per?  That would save 4 points per rank.  

 

Did not know if people had ever used these, and if this was the intention or not.  

 

Thanks for any input or information.

I believe the intent of the combined skills is to save points, so I think it should be less expensive than buying them separately. So in a Zombie survival game the average, non heroic 17 year old could buy Athlete, and wear a letterman jacket. Possably paying 5 points for the skill, and add +2 with Athletics, because he made varsity.
