So Hypnotism works better with with charming equipment. Survailence works better with smart equipment. Does anything work better with tough equipment? Or is it the short end of the stick?

No, no.... I think what Rock is trying to ask is if there is an independent skill...unlike pugulism and flirting which both work cooperatively with other skills....

Is there a skill that works alone that you need to wear tough gear to insure, or at least help, the effectiveness? I didn't think so at first, but I was talking with a friend and he thought maybe Stress detection??

Anybody know?

Maybe, and just maybe you get more lock picking opportunities with tough clothes on. It may be the one that is simmilar to Hypnotism and Surveilance, but it would take some testing to prove it.

I thought that there is only 2 lockpicking incidences per case. This has always be the case for me.

Plus it does seem that toughies get the short stick. There is no simple skill (not faction based) that will give a person +20 with 1/2 the population like flirting will. We need a sadist skill. (or something along those lines. :D

Ben added pugilism to meet the request for a 'tough' equivalent of flirting, but made it work half as well (+10) on ALL the suspects (flirting only works on the opposite sex).

As far as I know, there is no skill that works better with tough gear.

Furthermore Ben mentioned at some point that the tough people have a leg up on the charmers for some reason.
