Combat/Non-Combat applications of Talents?

Do we want to try to come up with in-combat and out-of-combat applications for Talents? For instance, Agile and Sticky Fingers could give advantage to Agility and Dexterity checks, respectively. Some Talents probably wouldn't have an alternative use, but I bet we could come up with uses for most of them.

I do like the idea. Especially talent that only give you a bonus to a reaction. You only get to use them if something bad happens and it may not help. So you could play the characters alot and never really get to use the talent.

The React action allows you to delay putting down chits until your turn if you roll a 13 awareness check. Combat Awareness gives you advantage on that roll. I agree it isn't particularly useful. I'd rather have Savvy.

Think this has merit...however with all the talents and that time it takes for us to "argue" er discuss, i think our time could be better well spent.   If you could come up with a quick way to come up with a talent and 3 or 4 options, including "I dont like it" and create a poll and whatever wins, wins, with a smokey veto power given. Then sure do it...

I like this. Plus we could add some non combat talents as well.   Should I create a spread sheet and put it one drive for discussion?

I have updated the shared Table Tops Rules that is posted on Rethem 615 world. If you go to the Talents Tab you will noticed I have made a place for you to make comments.   Have at it!
