Prerequisite: Intelligence 13 or higher
You have honed your analytical skills through rigorous study and practical application of scientific principles. This feat enhances your ability to dissect complex problems and devise innovative solutions.
- Benefit:
- Increase your Intelligence score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
- You gain proficiency in one of the following skills: Investigation, Medicine, or Arcana. If you are already proficient in the chosen skill, you instead gain expertise, adding double your proficiency bonus to checks made with that skill.
- When you make an Intelligence (Investigation) check to analyze evidence, decipher clues, or unravel mysteries, you can add your proficiency bonus if you are not already proficient in the Investigation skill. If you are proficient, you can add double your proficiency bonus.
- Additionally, when you make an Intelligence check related to scientific research or experimentation (such as analyzing data, designing experiments, or interpreting results), you can roll an additional d4 and add the number rolled to the total.
Example Rolls:
- Victoria, equipped with her Analytical Mind feat, is examining a set of cryptic symbols left behind at a crime scene. She rolls a d20 and adds her Intelligence modifier and proficiency bonus, as well as an additional d4 from her feat, to determine how well she deciphers the symbols.
- During a laboratory experiment, Victoria needs to calculate the precise measurements required for a chemical reaction. She makes an Intelligence check, adding her proficiency bonus and an additional d4 from her feat to ensure accuracy in her calculations.
