About Skills
Of course not everything will require the use of skills, and there will be plenty things to find throughout the map. All findables are placed about the map before the hunt opens.
Spot and Search are special skills.
Upon moving to a new area there may be somethings that are or are not noticed based on a Spot check.
When searching, there may be times when things are very well hidden, and are possible to miss. However there will be plenty things to find that are hard to find, what's the fun if you can't find anything, right?
Jump is a special case, the stat it works off varies due to type of jump. If you are jumping a distance (gap, stream, etc) it will work off Speed. For jumping a height (onto a cliff, high rock, etc) it will work off strength.
