Skill Mastery: If you have at least 10 ranks in a class skill (or skill for which you have the Skill Focus feat), you can always Take 10 on checks with that skill, even if stress and distractions would normally prevent it.
Superior Assist: If you aid another with a skill check, you can attempt to provide a greater than normal bonus to the other character’s total skill check. This reflects the fact that a highly trained person can render better help than an untrained or fumbling assistant. In return for increasing the aid another skill check Difficulty Class by 5 (to DC 15), you boost the Aid Another bonus you provide by an additional +1. There is no limit to how high you can push the Difficulty Class and the bonus, but this carries some risk: if your check to aid another fails, you actually inflict a penalty equal to the magnitude of the bonus you were attempting. .
