How on earth is that a good trade-off?
I am not debating it. Just asking if he took it. Cause if he did take it, that would be why he can't go past level 30.
I like that trait because I don't like my characters being super gods, masters of all things. It creates a somewhat balanced character. As balanced as one can get with the broken system Bethesda created and Obsidian was forced to use and didn't have much time to change.
