Are there certain skills that do not allow you to take a 10 or a 20? I know there are situations that make it impossible (combat, stampede of pigs through the living room, etc.), but whenever a character is "not being threatened or distracted, you may choose to take 10."
I ask for this specific situation: if you are playing a wizard and are trying to scribe a new spell from a scroll or another spellbook, and if you have a high Spellcraft modifier, would it not be easier to take a 10 to guarantee that you understand that spell instead of possibly failing and having to wait to level up to try again?
Is that allowed?
