Proficiency
Rulebook
Proficiency measures your aptitude at a specific task. It has five ranks and gives a bonus added to AC, attack rolls, Perception, saving throws, skills, and spell effectiveness.
Untrained : +0 (no level bonus)
Trained : your level + 2
Expert : your level + 4
Master : your level + 6
Legendary : your level + 8
Untrained characters can still attempt many skill checks, but some activities require at least trained proficiency. Higher proficiency ranks also unlock access to skill feats and more powerful abilities.
| Rank | Bonus |
|---|---|
| Untrained | +0 |
| Trained | Level + 2 |
| Expert | Level + 4 |
| Master | Level + 6 |
| Legendary | Level + 8 |
