    Change linked attribute?

    Is there a way to change the linked attribute of a skill? I'm making a sorcerer for PFSW and their Spellcasting is linked to Spirit instead of Smarts. I could see the same thing for someone with the Brute edge. I don't know when or if that would become an issue (other than the Character Summary being off a bit) but it bugs my sense of correctness.

    I may just create a new skill instead.

    You can create an extension to change the linking of a skill, BUT you cannot have a skill with the same name linked to different stats, (wish they had just made Wizardry and Sorcery skills to be honest"

    So you would need to create a new skill with a different name and then create a new arcane background, then change EVERY power on EVERY NPC using the new skill, I have made the Bestiary and adventure modules not read-only so you can do this.

    OR you can leave it alone and accept that whilst you can as a human understand that the same skill can be linked to different attributes, Fantasy Grounds doesn't like it.

    My players just defeated an army, had a dogfight with aliens, machine-gunned the zombies, stormed the tower, became Legendary and died heroically

    Yours are still on combat round 6

    Got it. Or I can just get over myself and live with it as-is. Thanks

    True, but you can have a skill with the same name under a different Skills group that's linked to a different attribute.
