Just interested in various thoughts for must have and perhaps even should avoid Khris. Also, for Khri that give a skill buff, do we know if this gives a learning penalty? Such as if I use darken when hiding in front of a mob I just barely learn from, do I no longer learn from said mob with Darken up?

Thanks as always!

P.S. While I'm thinking about it; can anyone give more details on how shadowstep actually works as it is not 100 percent clear in the information I have found thus far.

You will still learn just the same. Using Khri's to buff up your skills with never hinder you from learning as you normally would. I'm going to say most if not all combat/stealth calc's for EXP awarding will always go off your base number of ranks, not reflecting any current boosts.

You put Khri shadowstep up. Hide. Start advancing on your target and it will automatically start you from pole ranged advancing to Melee. Handy when you need to strike and strike now, or you're underhunting for boxes and you wanna be a slaughter-machine.

So shadowstep is pretty much pointless when in an indoors hunting area where the same thing happens without a khri (well, sort of, since you go from unengaged directly to melee)? Or does it speed that up as well?
