Unsure if this is an actual bug or intentional as the perk may have changed.

City Slicker is supposedly giving +2 hide and move silently in "city" areas, and -2/-2 in the wilderness.

Now I understand there is probably not any area in that currently counts of much as a city, so I half-expected not to gain the bonus in either Mistlocke nor any of its interiors (Old Stones included) as it stands now (No bonus, no penalty). However then I got curious and went out into the crossroads area which to my knowledge counts as wilderness, and lo and behold, I got PLUS 2 to the stealth skills rather than a subtraction. At any rate, this means that the perk still does something..

If it's intentional, I guess the actual bug is that the perk description in the manual is incorrect. If it is not, I do hope the effects could be sort of reversed, as it would seem to be a wasted perk if it was not applying the bonus ANYWHERE at all.
Oh well, live and learn. Thanks for reading.
