ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Playing with a skeleton archer, I was unable to use the plate of the blackened mind (48 str requirement) despite having 48 str. I was told it might have to do with stat requirements rounding down, and receiving str bonuses from the skelly talent. Not sure.

Do you have sufficient armor training? That would be the next important question.

I ran into this problem on a Skelly archer as well. I couldn't put further points into bow mastery even though I nominally had the requisite dex. Adding an additional stat point (taking it to 29 instead of the required 28, iirc) allowed me to place the point.

It definitely looks like a rounding thing with the skeleton talent.

*Edit: spelling

I've noticed this problem often with a new skelly's Talent Point Planner.

Happens to me as well. As a ghoul and as a skelly. I think the problem is on the 1st talent, which display a +3 to 2 stats but are in fact only giving +2. So all the listed pre requisite seems to require 1 more point in the stats.
