Easy Skill Chart

Hello, welcome to my guide to skills in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords! The purpose of this guide is to help players make easy, educated decisions on skill allocation.

Please note, this guide is restricted to humanoid characters only, and so doesn't provide information on droids. This guide also only provides maximums for skills as they relate to crafting (except Persuade). Let me know in the comments if you want me to add more depth to either of these!

The maximum crafting skill requirements for each skill are as follows:

• Computer Use: 32
  
• Demolitions: 31
  
• Stealth: 32*
  
• Awareness: 31
  
• Persuade: 26
  
• Repair: 32
  
• Security: 32
  
• Treat Injury: 38

*Persuade is not tied to crafting, however a total Persuade score of 26, (including bonuses from attributes, buffs, and other sources), guarantees 100% chance of success in dialogue options. However, some persuade checks are hard-coded to fail regardless of skill level.

The highest achievable skill from equipment is:

• Computer Use: 18
  
• Demolitions: 19
  
• Stealth: 20
  
• Awareness: 12
  
• Persuade: 10
  
• Repair: 15
  
• Security: 19
  
• Treat Injury: 9
