I took it just because thought it was funny that 2nd level wizard all but one of the common languages.

    It’s pretty good value - 2 skill feats and an Expert bump in a useful recall knowledge skill is good as far as dedications go. It kind of has to be good value though, because the core functionality is easily replaced with consumable items.

    It’s also really easy to dip out of, having two archetype skill feats available - if you were going to grab the Multilingual feat mutliple times anyway, you may as well replace them with those, and get the bonus languages from the dedication.

    Spot translate’s funny - it helps your teammates who didn’t learn a hundred different languages affect creatures with spells like Command. What did that guy say? Oh, they have a translator, apparently they meant “DROP PRONE,” guess we gotta do that now.

    It’s certainly not a combat archetype, but it’s not the worst way for characters to save money on scrolls of Comprehend Languages 3.
