Am I missing something here? -- saint23thomas -- 22:29, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

I think it's a typo; good catch. JazzMan 22:41, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
I think I see what happened. The original version neglected to add the feat, but added the bonus from the feat to Move Silently. When someone went through and amended to take account of the errata, they double-counted the bonus. JazzMan 00:19, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
Doubtful. Stealthy gives a bonus to Hide, in addition to Move Silently, and the numbers add up for Hide. Stealthy was added because, the designers forgot to take into account the prereqs for Weapon Finesse. So to make up for it, they made it a bonus feat, and made Stealthy the normal feat. It's most likely a simple case of miscalculating the bonuses. (My guess is that they intended to put all the skill points into Move Silently, which means Climb is incorrect.) The SRD is rife with miscalculated skill bonus. Few bother to check them. —Sledged (talk) 01:55, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
