- | **Check:** You make a Knowledge check to see if your character knows something. | ||
- | |||
- | The DC for answering a question within your field of study is 10 for easy questions, 15 for basic questions, and 20 to 30 for tough questions. | ||
- | |||
- | **Try Again?:** No. The check represents what you know, and thinking about a topic a second time doesn't let you know something you never knew in the first place. | ||
- | |||
- | **Special:** An untrained Knowledge check is simply an Intelligence check, Without actual training, a character only knows common knowledge about a given subject. | ||
- | |||
- | You can take 10 when making a Knowledge check, but you can't take 20. | ||
- | |||
- | A character with the [[Educated (Feat)|Educated]] feat gets a +2 bonus on any two types of Knowledge checks. | ||
- | |||
- | The GM may decide that having 5 or more ranks in a specific Knowledge skill provides you with a +2 synergy bonus when making a related skill check, For example, a character with 5 or more ranks of [[knowledge_life_sciences_skill|Knowledge (Life sciences)]] could get a +2 synergy bonus when making a [[treat_injury_skill|Treat Injury]] check in certain situations. | ||
- | |||
- | **Time:** A Knowledge check can be a reaction, but otherwise requires a full-round action. | ||
