This idea will probably get shot down but i figured i would throw it out there, what if shadows had the chance of dropping a skill tome? They would be about as rare as treasure maps or something, and they would have a random skill benefit. So if you got a skill tome of magery, you would use it and your magery would raise 1%. And they would be rare so it would be really difficult to find one that you wanted

I really like this kind of idea (same with skill balls on other shards ive played) cos it gives the vets something to aim for. You could cap the skills off at say 105 or 110 max and maybe make it so at 105 or 110 u get something a lil extra? Like a extra spell to cast, or hit a little bit harder (if it was a swords/mace skill) or if it was tailoring you could make a certain item of clothing. I dont mean make it so vets have a HUGE advantage but something little.

I like this idea but i also think something should drop collectible pieces like the snowglobes when i first started those were awesome.

I dont think you should be able to go over 100 with them, but they would be nice for the hard skills like resist or blacksmith.

Yeah, but it would pretty much be like 20k at LEAST for 1%.. and they would be rare so its not like you could just hoard them. Most likely they would be collectibles.

Venom are you talking about a full 1.0 increase, correct?

Ya this idea is starting to sound better and better. Mainly because resist doesnt gain little, if at all anymore,
and this would increase harder to gain skills.

I would much rather see resist fixed so it isn't so impossible to gain tho, other than have to find something to get more gains.

I would rather see the crafting patch done then, adding all this new stuff for dongeons and stuff.
