|p=I just rolled out a selection of updates to how the {{PRel|Scholarship skill|Teaching system}} works. This is live in all instances and includes: 
 
1) Teaching in Combat has been overhauled. Anyone can now {{PRel|Teach command|teach}} the following skills in combat: All {{PRel|Weapon Skillset|weapon skills}}, all {{PRel|Armor Skillset|armor skills}}, {{PRel|Targeted Magic skill|targetted magic}}, {{PRel|Debilitation skill|debilitation}}, {{PRel|Warding skill|warding}}, {{PRel|Evasion skill|evasion}}, and {{PRel|Tactics skill|tactics}}. In addition {{PRel|Barbarian}}s, {{PRel|Paladin}}s and {{PRel|Thief|Thieves}} can teach their respective guild skills in combat. The rate of learning will depend on the {{PRel|Skillsets|lore skill set placement}} of the teacher (ie: {{PRel|Empath}}s/{{PRel|Trader}}s/{{PRel|Bard}}s can teach in combat far better than Barbarians and Rangers). 
 
2) Barbarians can now only teach & listen to other Barbarians for the following skills: {{PRel|Primary Magic skill|Inner Fire}}, {{PRel|Augmentation skill|Augmentation}}, Debilitation and Warding. 
 
3) Thieves can now only teach & learn from other Thieves for the following skills: Inner Magic, Augmentation, Debilitation and {{PRel|Utility skill|Utility}}. 
 
4) Barbarians, Thieves and {{PRel|Commoner}}s cannot teach or listen to {{PRel|Supernatural Skillset|magic skills}} they cannot utilize. 
 
5) Visibility checks have been revisited, particularly with respect to invisibility. The following skills do not require the teacher to be visible: {{PRel|Perception skill|Perception}}, {{PRel|Stealth skill|Stealth}}, {{PRel|Thievery skill|Thievery}}, {{PRel|Backstab skill|Backstab}}, {{PRel|Scouting skill|Scouting}}. 
 
6) How {{PRel|Charisma (stat)|Charisma}} influences teaching has been revamped. It is now a linear function instead of a LN mechanic, and pure upside. The net result will be far more forgiving at low ranks but somewhat less effective at extreme ranks. {{PRel|Wisdom (stat)|Wisdom}} also plays a small role now. 
 
7) How {{PRel|Intelligence (stat)|Intelligence}} influences listening has been revamped. It is now a linear function instead of a LN mechanic, and pure upside. The net result will be far more forgiving at low ranks but somewhat less effective at extreme ranks. Charisma also plays a small role now. 
 
8) {{PRel|Faenella's Grace}} actually works now (There were no less than three separate bugs preventing it's proper function). 
 
I also fixed a smattering of other minor bugs that I tripped across while in the code, but those should be functionally invisible. 
 
Many thanks to [[Grejuva]] for wading into the death swamp that is Teaching code.
