Something odd just came to my attention yesterday.
I had always believed Iaijutsu Focus to be a trained only skill, but looking at OA, it has no such descriptor next to it's name.
Does this mean (assuming the DM allows the skill in his game), anyone can make a check when they strike a flat-footed opponent after drawing a weapon? Even a character with no ranks can get +3d6 damage on a good roll.
This seems exceedingly strange to me, for such a niche skill not be trained only.
Am I missing something?
