Second thing, you literally quoted me saying I hate few things more in game than wasting Skill Points. Pretty Good costs you 5 SP if you're not using Guard Stance. I think if your abilities of inference are so strong, you'd realize that I do not use Pretty Good, but I'm not going to be a fool that looks at the Skill and ignores that it has a powerful effect. To me personally it does not have enough weight to overcome the cost of getting to it, but that's not always going to be the case.
Also, I was under the impression that you find Guard Stance worthless in general, and you tag Guard Stance as a tanking Skill. Why visit the single specific thread where Guard Stance is going to come up a lot since Guard Stance does harden your defenses and change the method of tanking you can utilize? You may not like or use the Skill, but that doesn't mean you can't entertain using it and figuring out in which contexts it would work well.
Last thing, if it's disheartening or you see something you don't agree with, making a statement like this is...an attention grab at best. Why is Pretty Good not worth the effect? You proposed using items as a solution, I gave a situation in which Pretty Good beats out using items; it was a fair exchange of ideas. It doesn't mean one method is better than the other; it all depends on the player that makes the choice. Some of us may find the cost of SP too steep, some of use may really like the effect, some of us may pack Techs, some of us may just prefer to use items. It's all in the player's hands. We're here to make a debate, and what each player chooses is up to the individual. I'm not sure why you have this "one glove fits all" mentality; I generally assume that players know what's best for themselves, and I just try to propose ideas and theories that may help them understand their choices.
