Rangers and Arrows/Bolts/Bullets

It doesn't make much sense that Rangers or more specifically, Archers... Cannot properly identify ammunition for their bow/xbows/slings. I find this odd and contradictory to the class itself.

    Do you mean you'd like it if a Ranger's Lore score would be increased when viewing arrows, bolts, and bullets?

    Or do you mean you want them to automatically identify these items?

    Item category-specific Lore bonuses or penalties for certain classes or kits sounds interesting, ideally when externalized into a 2DA file. For example, Fighters could gain a lore bonus for weapons/armors/shields/helmets, Archers for arrows/bolts/bullets, Thieves for daggers/small swords, Mages for scrolls/amulets/rings/wands or Clerics for scrolls/potions/blunt weapons.

    That sounds actually like a really good idea. I hadn't thought of that..

    Lore score should be increased when viewing these specific items.

    It has always kind of bugged me that I had to identify arrows for an Archer by passing them to someone who could identify them. Imagine the conversation... “hey I don't know what these arrows are, can you identify them for me?" Other person replies “aren't you an Archer?"

    I absolutely LOVE this idea!

    I'd like it if characters got, say, +5 lore when identifying any item they're allowed to use, and then an additional +5 per proficiency point for weapons (and corresponding ammo).
