Primary and secondary class skills

ArchivedUser

Hi,

When we choose a secondary class, do we get all the skills and tools of that archetype? I heard Steven talking about "primary skills". Does that mean that skills are divided into two groups and that you get only some of them when you spec into a secondary class?

Your secondary class only augments the skills of your primary class, by adding additional effects onto your existing skills. So for example a Fighter has a Charge skill where they run forwards towards their target. If a Fighter chooses Mage as their secondary class, their Charge skill changes so that it's a teleport rather than a dash.

Only if you choose the specific augmentation to do it.

Let's say you have a Tank or Ranger and you pick Rogue as your secondary class: Do you get stealth?

Very likely. The stealth would be a possible augment for some skills.

Ie: Tank charge skills + rogue stealth augment = stealth charge.

Steven said that characters with rogue as secondary class will have ways to get stealth, but not like the rogue's prime skill. He gives an example with charge skill of fighter with rogue as secondary that can use an augment to get stealth while charging.

In the q&a video with deltias gaming was that the secondary class will not ADD a skill, but will CHANGE a skill from your primary class.
