Hello everyone!

I have 84 skill points (8 of them are unused) and I was wondering which skill should I get next.

Im tempted by getting Footprint analysis upgraded, As having all important evidence skill fully upgraded would really help me throught some cases where I end up with 3 footprints evidence. Problem, it will not necessarely be always useful in all my cases.

It either that or I could get research. It would cost the same amount of skill points as advanced footprint analysis and could be used in all future cases.

I could also get Flirting, which would boost all my future charming against the opposite sex.

Or I could get hypnosis, but then again, I should be getting that last

What do you guys think? Im a smart and charming detective.

Depends, if you have a footprint contact (shoe maker, podiatrist) you could hold off footprint analysis for a while. Research is useful in every case and costs quite a bit of skill points.

The only contact I have is the Bartender. Also im not a subscribed player, so I have no idea who the podiatrist is...

Also, both Research and advanced footprint analysis cost the same number of skill points.

Definitely either Research or Footprint Analysis. I would get Research, but that's because my focus is more on my interviewing skills than on analysis or physical evidence. You still have a ways to go before your well of skill points starts to run dry, so you could always get one and then the other, but it is a good thing that you are trying to choose your next skill wisely.

No idea why that got posted three times - I think due to refreshing the page I was on.

Anyway, you should definitely have Lock Picking on your list of skills to get in the future, I didn't mean to give you bad advice about it. You seem to be more focused on Smart rather than Charming skills, so you should focus on skills that play to your strengths - Hypnotism is tied to how charming you are. And Advanced Sweet Talking is definitely something to aim for in the future, although I can see how Flirting would help you unclam the Physical Evidence (male) townies.

Yes, but research is useful in every case.

Only for a single suspect though. Get a footprint and that extra analysis can help you with all of them.

Flirting is an undersold skill. And cheap to boot.
