Cunning

<--Specialist Class
Cunning deals with skill and subterfuge. It is generally a stealth and utility oriented skill-tree. Only specialists may learn from Cunning.
A specialist may only learn an ability with a higher level requirement once they have learned at least one ability from the previous level requirement of Cunning. An ability with Rank 1+ can be leveled up by investing more skill points into the ability, this provides the same effect as the first level of the ability for as many ranks as the ability has been leveled up; an ability may only be ranked up once the specialist reaches the next level tier, ie: 5, 10, 15 etc. from the abilities required level.
An ability may not be learned unless the specialist meets its requirement criteria.
