Getting all skills

[Inevitability]

Is there a pair of classes that get all PHB skills (so no Iaijutsu Focus, Control Shape, or Lucid Dreaming) between them? No using the expert, factotum, or savant, and no feats that grant new class skills, but ACFs and domains are fine.

There's at least one triplet: Bard/Rogue/Druid has every skill in the book for at least one of its three classes, but I'm wondering if there's a pair as well.

Human Paragon gets any 10; is that enough with like rogue?

Including PrC? Exemplar has all skills as class skills

Bard/Ranger has almost all of them, only missing open lock, disable device and forgery, which are rogue exclusive iirc, and intimidate

Rogue / Cleric (Knowledge+Travel) gets pretty close. Just Missing Handle Animal, Ride, and Speak Language. Outside of Core, Cloistered Cleric takes care of Speak Language.

If you're a Cloistered Cleric you can go Wilderness Rogue to get Handle Animal and Ride, it also gives Survival so you can drop Travel.

Wilderness Rogue means you lose Appraise, Diplomacy, Decipher Script, Forgery, and Gather Information. Diplomacy is on the cleric list anyway, Decipher Script is on the CC list anyway, so that leaves Appraise/Forgery/Gather Info, which you have 2 cleric domains to get.

Pact/Commerce Domain adds Appraise and City domain adds Gather Info, so this character would only lack Forgery (which, if feats were okay, you could get by being an elf and picking Aereni Focus, but no dice)

think i remember playing a rogue/druid in red hand of doom who had all skills as class skills. 3.5 i think, might have been pathfinder though.


did eventually take a few levels in assassin, so that might have done something too.

There are 45 PHB skills. There's a number of skills that are relatively uncommon (Speak Language, Use Rope), but the biggest hurdle is Forgery, which basically nobody has.

Adept//Rogue gets 43 class skills. They are missing Ride and Speak Language. If you take the Rilkan Rogue substitution levels, Speak Language is acquired as well.

Bard//Rogue (Wilderness) gets 43 class skills. They are missing Forgery and Heal.

Aristocrat//Beguiler gets 42 class skills. They are missing Craft, Heal, and Use Rope.

Glancing over curmudgeon's domain list (https://web.archive.org/web/20150910043951/http://home.comcast.net/~ftm3/ASMoNM/domains.html), there's no two domains I can throw onto Cloistered to get the Cloistered Rogues to 45 class skills, and I'm pretty sure that's a very thorough list. I haven't actually compared "Cloistered Cleric (various domain combos" to all the classes on that list, so who knows if something else would suddenly become viable. but overall, closest you'll get is Adept//Rogue (Rilkan), who is missing Ride and nothing else.

For the sake of completeness, Ardent Dilettante (https://forums.giantitp.com/showthread.php?579721) also gets all skills as class skills.
