Patch 1.6.5 | Return of Skills [POLL]

[Acornlad 206]

I am fine with this, just fix the mining skill, it is way too hard to level up.

I'm just upset because I thought the new update would bring up magic. Although I am slightly upset I understand the grind it is to code a wonderful plugin like this. I just hope magic will become available as another skill, until then I will wait patiently for where this skill system will go from here.

I'm still an advocate of giving all players a one-time, straight-up 275 levels to distribute as they will. Then to delevel or choose other skills as they come will require leveling. This eliminates the grind, allows us to specialize according to our character sheet and jump right back into role-playing.

Hmm.

I like this...

I also like that idea, but straight 275 is a bit much, since you're automatically maxxed out...

HOWEVER, giving people 100 or 150 points, so they can get back their CRITICAL skills, and then have room to improve on or work up other skills, would be an acceptable compromise, in my eyes anyway. I mean, look at me. If I got 150 points to free spend, i'd be able to repair iron again, i'd be able to use my diamond swords again, and i'd be able to plant and harvest wheat. All my current concerns for the skill system would just disappear, and i'd have room to work on and improve the rest of my skills.

I just wondered what ever happened to those buffs that it tells you get on the wiki for the different subraces. I was hoping that I could get my stat buffs.

-"The Northerners receive + 20 Swordsmanship - 50 Herbalism"

-"The Dark Elves receive + 20 Swordsmanship - 20 Archery"

These things are what I'm talking about and they're on the wiki. Wiki Subraces

I just wish that we could have our buffs.

I think your friend was one of those people using autoclickers which broke the system in the first place. I was out hunting like a madman earnin my loot and I had 55 swords, and I thought that was a freakin ton. I'm at 33 now I think, but back then you could just hold left click and you'd swing wildly and maybe earn 3-4 swings worth of exp for every hit you made. Apparantly these autoclicker types would log hundreds upon hundreds of clicks every second, so they'd get the exp for killing a million zombies off maybe 50 of them.

It was the Ned_Lud guy and I can garantee you he isnt a autoclicker but he did lose his skills >.>

I wouldn't mind 100-150 to distribute as opposed to 275. My main argument for this is that even though no one just crawls out of the womb as a legendary swordsman, most of us first set foot in Aegis with a history and it would be implied that we had previous training in this or that, depending on our character sheet. It only makes sense that we would begin with some degree of skill in certain, critical areas. So yeah, maybe a reduced amount, but still enough to get us on our feet would be a fine compromise.

Wow. I lost all of my skills. I am completely reset back to 0, and I'm super frustrated. I hate having to start from wood. And, is it me, or did the server get 10x more laggy?

[Schwaan 176]

I say put on like triple XP for like a week, so players who lost old levels can re get them back, becuase I lost like 20 levels in swords 15 in wrestling and like 20 in woodcuting

My friend said he went from 90 swords to 0 swords. >.>

I support this. (y)

[Petyr 485]

I think either a 3x week or the 100 pt system would good solutions...

100 pt system gets my vote.

[Phog 150]

100 pt system gets my vote.

You have my axe :)

[Ned Lud 1260]

And my sword. *fnar*

[argonian 14254]

100 pt system gets my vote.

And my sword

[craotor 617]

I agre with the 100pt system

[CowsGoMoo 267]

I kinda like the skill system, but I found a little problem...

It says that "You need an axe to cut this tree", and if you were new to this server, with nothing but your soulstone, you would be pretty screwed wouldn't you?
