Are the tough skills of any use to a charming detective? I have all the smart & charming skills plus research & lockpicking. There are some other faction skills I am still working toward but am curious if after that it would be useful to get the tough skills?

Are y'all talking about Judge of Character? I use Stress Detection all the time - it is after all automatic. At first I thought it was useful, but now that I've tweaked my strategy I honestly think my completion rate would really drop off without it.

Judge of Character, however, meh...

Thanx for all the input! I have Judge of character and I really don't use it much anymore since charm is always higher for me. Is there anything else to do with skill points after I get the other faction skills I want?

LOL well VS was prob talking about SD ;) but yes I was walking about JoC. I 'was' going to embarrass myself further and post all the times over the last couple of years I have gotten these two skills confused, but I figure one bout of stupidity for the say is enough. But I'm glad I dragged someone else down with me though :) thanks Jas. lol.

I've always liked Stress detection, not so much for the suspects but the townies, it's helped me to know when they will want a bribe and or answer one more

I use SD for suspects when hunting for motives and alibis. I try to leave all suspects with at least one question in case I have to resort to WE.

You didn't drag me down with you SS I actually was talking about Stress detection. I have JoC, and LOVE it, So I have no need to for stress detection. It's pointless for me. lol

Should also mention, Deluzion, go with what you feel is right for you and what will benefit you based on your game play and your success rate of completion of cases, and good luck!

I'm another one that likes Stress Detection - I find it really useful to know how many questions I've got left, especially with the townies.

But Jas is right - go with what suits the way you play, and have fun!
