I posted this bug a week or two ago but it hasnt been posted to the bug forum. I just did the tasks in Aldevari as a human to confirm that when wearing the "some leather traveling boots" and typing 'skill pathfinding' it shows 0/43%. This is not the case with the minotaur version of these boots. The same 'you feel a rush of insight into pathfinding' is displayed, but minotaurs don't get the skill granted by the boots.
