An easy way to get Lichenology?
I tried to keep changing the initial survivors but I spent more than 3 hours and none came with this skill.

Just keep randomizing or buy the book for it from the rare skills trader if/when they show up.

That was unlucky, but Lichenology really is the rarest one of them all, I think. Perhaps only one trait that enables it, out of several hundred.

I got It! On randomize...

I spent like 5500 the other day when I first met the rare skill trader. I think lichenology is one of the 3 books I didn't buy because I ran out of influence. :(

i really dont think those rare skills are worth it anymore, scrum and design can be situationally , but things like lichen are a trap imo.

its only +1 meds a day over normal herbalism , sure if you need a herbalist for your build then go for it, but if you dont plan to be using that herbalism its terrible.

When you go to 12 you get all the relevant skills anyway. Nulling out the Meds upkeep and having an early Gardening skill from the start is just convenient enough to do so - but I wouldn't click for hours to get one, that's for sure. I am happy when I get it, but the three others I want to have are Scrum, Recycling and Sleep Psychology. There is even one left over for anything else after the 7 "essentials" have been covered, and I usually go for Plumbing on that one, but maybe I'll go for Sewing one time. Could be neat.
