I love the random skill gains we get based off of wis, but it rarely improves something that is useful to me. I don't know how many times in my life I've had things like armor, improved compare, or infravision level up when I really needed something else to improve like a particularly difficult invoker spell or assassin kick.

I would like to propose a skill focus command, once set you have a greater chance to learn in that ability when you gain a level. Maybe it can also give you a slight bonus to learn that skill/spell during regular use as well, at the cost of slightly decreasing the odds of learning other skills/spells. The idea is to make it so you can truly focus on the important stuff when you are willing to sacrifice other areas of improvement.

Such a command could be set at the guild master like discuss, and either have a long timer associated with it, or else only work a certain number of times in your character's life like maybe once per level.
