11-29-05, 09:54 PM I was checking out the SRD domains today and I noticed a rather large
discrepancy between them and the domains in Complete Divine.

Namely the following two:
SRD: Weather gives Survival as a class skill.
CD: Doesn't.

The advantage of the SRD version is that it makes qualifying
for Seeker of the Misty Isle a bit easier without taking the
Travel Domain.

But the next one is a doozy:
SRD: Madness gives Class level/2 as an insanity score. This
insanity score is added to DCs and subtracted from Wisdom skill
checks. So a 12th level Cleric of Erevan Ilesere would add +6 DCs
to a spell he cast.
CD: Doesn't.

It appears that the SRD was simply not updated when Complete
Divine was released - the file and CD were released in the same
month.

Any Circle or Triad opinion on this one?
