At this point, I'm mostly considering applying this rule only to stats that have special additional rules, like the Bowcaster requiring a Strength roll to re-load. Giving people a pass on having to roll skills entirely is taking it too far, IMO. |
I think that makes a fair amount of sense... "Fluency" means you get to avoid some of the drawbacks of the equipment that less skilled people have to suffer through.
However, are you looking at applying the other side of the Fluency rule? 5D?

Ignore it, most likely. For the purposes of the above usage, a character who specializes in a specific weapon that has a Familiarity option will increase their skill level more quickly, and thus increase their chances of meeting the requirements more quickly. I don't see a need for anything beyond that.
