🎯Milestones

27 min read

Skill Milestones are free perks you unlock automatically by raising a ⭐ Skill. You do not spend anything on them — reach the skill rank and the milestone is yours.

There are 104 entries across 17 skills. Each is listed on its own skill page as well; this page collects them so they can be linked and searched in one place.

Entries showing a skill rank (Repair +7) unlock automatically at that rank. Entries showing a family instead (Gunslinger (Tier II), Adaptation) are choices a milestone hands you — the milestone grants a pick, and you spend it here.

Unlike 🎖 Perks, none of this costs a perk point.

Additionally, choose one specialization. This choice is permanent:

  • Undercutter - Once per session, when purchasing an item or service, you may acquire it at half price, no 💰 Barter Test required. This represents calling in favors, exploiting market inefficiencies, or leveraging business relationships. This cannot be used on unique or one-of-a-kind items.
  • Broker - Once per session, you may facilitate a transaction between two NPCs and take a commission worth 15% of the transaction value in caps. Both parties must have something the other wants, and you must be in a position to connect them. You may use a 💰 Barter Test to increase your commission to 25%.
  • Appraiser’s Eye - You can identify the most valuable item in any room, container, or on any person at a glance, without searching. Once per 🏕 Long Rest, when scavenging a location, you may find one item of Uncommon or higher rarity that would not normally be found there.

Additionally, you can now rig locks as traps. When you successfully pick a lock, you may choose to rig it. The next creature that attempts to open the rigged lock without picking it triggers a mechanical trap. Work with the GM to determine the trap effect based on available materials. Rigging a lock requires 1 bobby pin and a successful 🔏 Lockpick Test.

You also gain the ability to assess locks and mechanical devices at a glance — you can determine the approximate 📊 Difficulty of any lock or mechanical trap without making a Test, and you can identify whether a lock has been tampered with, trapped, or recently opened.

  • Bypass: You may attempt to pick a lock with no bobby pin cost and no consequence on failure; a failed Test simply means you couldn’t open it, with no bobby pins lost, no noise made, and no lockout. You may still only attempt the lock once this way.
