I've been checking out several SoZ builds, and I was wondering: is lore necessary for more than one party member? And is it needed for anything more than identification?

You only need lore with one character. There are a few lore checks in dialogue, but otherwise it just helps with identifying objects.

Thanks. That's what I figured.

Lore is a requirement for some PrCs as well.

Well, some prestige classes require a certain amount of ranks in Lore in order to enter them. Dragon Disciple springs to mind. There are more, especially if playing with Kaedrin's PrC pack.

As I'd mentioned in a previous post: Hellfire Warlock 12, and also:
Arcane Trickster 7
RDD 8
Sacred Fist 8
BASE skill points (as seen when "leveling"), not augmented skill points.

Sacred Fist. That's what I wanted to know, when I asked you in that other thread why you gave lore to your rogue. You probably missed this, because you never responded.

Ah, I re-read the question again.
The "Leader" I had listed as the meat-shield, so I wasn't picking up on the "Guide" character that includes Sacred Fist levels.
I updated it in case someone else starts looking cross-eyed at my post.

No, I can see that for role-playing..
-it would be nice if the devlopers would add-in a *missed* lore check with a response like:
"newb"..
