Skill Tricks for Martials

[Kane0]

Did you make a specific note on which utility powers were labelled "skill powers", and what skilled they were assigned to?
I think Martial Powrr 1 and 2 had more of these.

No these were just class utility powers for the PHB martials, theres tons more if you delve into the PHB II, X Power and other splatbooks. Wouldnt be hard to cherrypick from the casters too, but i thought that list was big enough to start with.

So now we just have to agree on a chassis?
I can see two options pop up immediately

1. Divide the skill powers into small lists based on power level.

2. Same as above, but instead of having the lists be determined by level, it's instead determined by your total proficiency bonus for that skill.

Both are almost the same really, since prof bonus scales by level (+2 at level 1 plus an additional 1 every 4 levels).
Expertise doesnt increase your prof bonus but allows you to apply it twice. There is the ioun stone that does increase your prof bonus by 1, but thats a Very Rare or Legendary magic item and not any more gamebreaking than anything else at that point (book of stat increase or robe of the archmagi for example)
