Is it just me or does the rule where skill checks being dependent on monster HD seem stupid?
I mean say you're fighting a skeleton, ok that's a nice easy knowlege religion check. Make it a really big skeleton, which acts in pretty much the same fashion and looks the same, and all of a sudden, it's a much harder check. This just doesn't pass on the common sense meter to me.
Personally I think it ought to be something based on scarcity of the critter in question. I'll probably try to cook up a house rule to this effect. I've just seen to many examples of an advanced version of something fairly common being impossible to identify to like this rule.
