So, imagine I'm a Kitsuki Investigator. I'm a Rank 1 little baby. I buy some Social Skills. My Rank 1 does not have Advancement line for Social Skills, but Rank 5 has a line for them, as a group. Do I record XP spent on Social Skills pre-emptively on Rank 5 chart or does it not count unless I've spent it while being at Rank5?
Spending XP on things that appear on later Ranks Advancement
Yeah, I was curious about that one too. I think it would be a good idea to have it 'count' for later advancement, rather than having those XP 'lost'.

No, You can only fill in on the rank you are at.
more important: Why does Kitsuki have no social skills advancement line at RK1?
Edited by Nitenmanyeah I kinda noticed that too. As they are the diplomat for the Dragon....
This defiantly needs to be gone into detail in the book. I would hope that spending XP "early" would not waste it as far as rank advancement is concerned.
I can't find anything that says it doesn't count for later, so I'm assuming it does, but has there been an official ruling on this / someone find something definitive in the text yet?

Says expliciltly, no. Implies strongly:
QuoteThis curriculum includes a set of skills, techniques, and approaches that all its students must master before they are tested and allowed to proceed to the next rank. (beta, p 44)
the techniques required I'd say cannot be learned until ranked up based upon that.

The Investigator school is not their diplomat school; that's the Magistrate school. At least, under 3rd Ed.
