Perform(Dance) and Perform(Cloak) aren't separate skills in 3.0, I take it?
Nope - there's one Perform skill, and each rank you have in it gives you one more style of performance (an instrument, singing, dancing, etc). Even that is more complicated than I'd like (I'm all for a single Perform skill), but there's no way I'd ask for Ranks in each each performance style.
Cloak does feel more like an exotic weapons proficiency, though.
I'm already planning to include Cloak on the armor list, which is where it is in the S&B equipment list, but the cloak deceptions (which has the one I listed, plus disguising an attack) are only available to a single prestige class, which I didn't agree with.
I was hoping to give each of the physical skills some sort of combat aspect and cloak was the best I could do for Perform, but you might be right that it's better off putting it in the game as an Exotic Weapon Proficiency.
I wonder if any of the players have any thoughts. Or ideas for what might be a combat option for Perform that would work better if I did move Cloak to an EWP?
