Ep21: Skills Comparison

Do you know the difference between the acrobatics and athletics skills? What about survival and nature? How about bluff and diplomacy? In this episode of becomingDM, John and Felicia talk about skills that may give DMs some trouble when trying to determine what's best to use in a given situation. They will go over the nuances that make the skills different and make suggestions on when to use which one. Additionally they talk through some skills that are misinterpreted and make suggestions on changing and adding other skills to work for your game.
