I logged on today, and all my skills decreased by .1%
Does this mean i went over the cap last time i was logged on and it reduced them all to balance it? I'm only at 709.9/678.4 real.

Yeah, it sucks when that happens.

Catch me ingame, I may be able to help with some fish.

I'll look into the rest of it when magery get's it's update/check here after the craft patch is finished. That is concerning in how that works, it might be calculating spells wrong.
Messing around with this recently I can tell an improvement has been made. 6th level spells are now not giving me the "this is too easy" skillcheck message. Haven't had a gain quite yet, but I haven't really hardcore trained yet as I'm STILL having issues with my home computer.

Your skill in tracking has Increased by .1
Your skill in Arms Lore has Increased by .1
Your skill in (uselesstome) has Increased by .1

You've hit the skill cap. Human skill cap is 680.0. Anything over that in skills and all skills will drop. It might say it's gaining but it isn't.
And the stat cap is 290, Iori.

Ok yeah I'm going to have to change my input on this magery gain thing again.

Basically...

6th level spells ARE still telling me (yet not every time I cast) that they are too easy to gain any skill. I still can't cast level 7 spells.

Also, even if I WAS gaining skill by say casting invis, explo, and energy bolt constantly... at their high mana cost I get maybe 5 tries in this circle before having to wait on my mana to come back so yeah, this could make it "ludicrously" slow skill gain at my skill level.

Perhaps you could increase the range a bit... I know you don't want us all just standing around shooting ourselves with Magic Missile, but damn.. let me gain casting lightning or SOMETHING lol

Post subject:  Re: Gains

my problem is with resist more than anything. i used to be able to go to fire shrine and gian .5 gains every hour to 2 hours, using tempest analogy...im at 69 now, i need 310 gains. it would take me 62 hours to gm..that is about right.makes sense to me..that was old system. i have been playing alot since the big crash of '08 and i have got 2 gains since then..ive been to all the shrines a ton. and the worst part is ive gotten i ton of int gains ..even when im not using or fighting anything with magic..and yes im gm in all fighting skills. on a brighter note i think alchemy gains are perfect. :D

As a side note... about 1k bandages and a couple of months later I'm starting to wonder... Will I ever get another healing gain? lol

I decided to try training anatomy and holy crap in the time it took me to get from 60 - 70 anat i got 60 int gains. :shock:

Whether or not it is the same as b4, That is a bit excessive.

Post subject:  Re: Gains

It's not the same as it was before....not at all. I did the same thing. I figured I could just fix the stats after I GMed anatomy...well..I gained close to 60 int and lost a crapload of dex and str. At this point it would be (almost) as easy to build stats from scratch on a new character then it will be to fix what happened....

The insane stat gains along with a decapitated PvP system and constant patch delays has dug the hole for obsidian.
