Arelith

I sent a PM to the DM team regarding this issue, but as they are probably busy, I thought I might try here as well.

First off, I don't know whether this is a bug or simply something Arelith-specific.

I have a level 7 human fighter, ready to ascend to level 8. He wants to take the "skill focus: craft mastery" feat to assist in his smithing, but it is absolutely not present in the character level-up dialog where you select a feat. No skill focus feat in the list whatsoever.

Could it be that there is some option or set of options that I selected in the past that might make this option unavailable? Software is most recent NWN client, downloaded last last week through Steam.

As far as I'm aware, Skill Foci are not on the Fighter's Bonus Feats list. You should, however, be able to take it at level 9.

But you should check the wiki just to be sure. (On my phone, and it looks weird)

I think you've solved it. I haven't played NWN for many years, so I'm rusty.
