Help with skills total bonus classification (SUGGESTIONS)

[spikevampire]

I haven't pay so much attention to the all skill thing till now.

I was thinking to make a very simple classification of the total skill bonus, accordingly to the sample DC shown in the book (most of them goes from a 15 for basic checks which needs train to 25 for very complex ones). It should work this way basically:

1 +5 (common professional: lawyer, medic ecc) = DC 15
2 +10 (world class expert: olympic athletes, leading expert in a scientific field) = DC 20
3 +15 (very skilled hero: wolverine perception, batman stealth) = DC 25
4 +20 (most skilled hero, probably 1 or 2 for class of ability: ironman' technology, richards' expertise in science) = DC 30
5 +25 (Cosmic skill level: Loki' deception, hercules athletics) = DC 35

I would like, in this way, to create very big categories in which "squeeze" more than 1 character. Probably, with time, I will try to make a gradual list from +1 to +19 instead of just going for this 5 classes, but It seems very difficult since I have done something like 200 characters and I don't have any clue to decide if nightcrawler is a better acrobat than spider-man, and so on...

There is no actual question, just I would like to know how would you handle that...

Well, JDRook made a .stock portfolio for the entirety of Heroes and Villains and I wrote him a .net program to export said data into a CSV, so that would be one easy way to find a DCA hero at each level.

I will take a look on some of the character there, to have suggestion on how to scale the skills. Can I find that CSV somewhere?

I wish a Marvel Heroes and Villains had been published

Look no further than our very own, Roll Call board for the various renditions of popular (and sometimes seriously derelict) characters in M&M 3e!

I'm on the road doing theatre for the next few weeks so I'm not at my computer, but I've still got this on my dropbox. http://db.tt/6i8ZXHME
It's big and a bit messy, but it should be readable by most spreadsheet programs and therefore sortable.

That is an excellent help. Thanks for the CSV! I've done similar things for some of the threads on Roll Call that I like, but it's nice to see the official DC stats all lined up for comparison.
