ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Is there any way to start with the shoot talent as an adventurer?

Edit: Thanks!

Unless I'm mistaken, investing immediately in a "shooting" talent grants it. By immediately, I mean before closing the levelup dialogue.

If not, then immediately leave the zone you're in, and head over to Last Hope, then talk with any weapon vendor; the shoot talent is available for 8 gold.

Learning any talent from a category that begins with "technique/archery" will teach you shoot and reload.

So this doesn't work with all races? All those talents need 18 dex minimum, with the +2 dex the Adventurer gets and 3 stat points for the first level this means only races with at least +3 dex can do this, so only Skeleton, Halfling and Thalore. This leaves me quite confused, since there is no problem to start a Yeek Archer or Skirmisher, but I can't use a Yeek for a ranged Adventurer build?

If you don't start with it, you can easily buy it in Last Hope.

I know, but I am still baffled why this skill is in effect race-locked for Adventurer but not any other class that starts with it.
