Hey everyone,
In entombed, the monk basically can start a battle with the focus skill When
you use that talent in combat, other skills are opened up for that battle. My
question is when I am allotting skill points, does the iron skin skilll
automatically start in a battle, or is it something
I'm pretty sure its an always on thing and not something you have to select.

One of the intrinsic imbalances in entombed is the fact that magic never
misses. At most, you'll hit a body part that you weren't intending to. With
fighters, barbarians etc, while they can do great damage, the damage is
always contingent on them actually hitting the targit which they don't

Right. I've noticed that. Entombed simply doesn't give the magician,
