Hi all,
I've recently purchased and starting using Hero Lab and I was creating a portfolio for an existing character when I noticed I don't understand one of the skill numbers. Is there any way to see what is going into a particular skill's math?
This is occurring on on a 4th level half-elven ranger (freebooter) with a Str of 14 wearing studded leather armor. He has 2 ranks in Swim, and his half-elven Skill Focus is Swim.
So as I count it he has:
3 (Class Skill) + 2 (Str Mod) + 2 (Skill ranks) + 3 (Skill Focus) - 1 (Armor Check) = 9.
But Hero Lab lists it as 11. If I clear the Freebooter archetype it drops to the expected +9. While Freebooter does list a +2 to swim checks that is inside the description for "Fast Swimmer" which is at seventh level (It replaces Woodland Stride.) So this looks like a bug in the data file to me, unless I'm misreading the archetype. I figured I'd ask here before submitting an actual bug report.
