Research and Debate Skill

As a member of the Debate Guild you will be honing in on your Research and Debate Skill. This skill gives your sim the ability to debate other sims and as you increase your skill level you can start convincing other sims to do whatever you want. The Research and Debate Skill is useful if you plan on joining the Legal field and being a lawyer, you can learn more in my full guide to the Research and Debate Skill.

You can increase your research and debate skill by stepping up to "The Daring Debator Podium Set" and debating a variety of topics on your own or with other sims. You can also utilize the research archive machine and research other skills. The research archive machine is very useful because you can learn the research and debate skill while also increasing another skill at the same time.
