The Current State of Specialist Actions

[Silverbane]

The easier, and probably better, way to fix the Specialists is to eliminate the current Specialist actions, and enable Specialists to gain, as normal (not in the cross class area) ALL of the 21 cross class skills that the base class does not provide, for levels 15, 37, and 50.

Just giving Specialists the skills Careful Synthesis II, Comfort Zone, Steady Hand II, Tricks of the Trade, and Byregot's Blessing would be enough. There are other nice cross-class skills, but these are the essential ones. If someone want any of the others, they can level the appropriate class.
