Question about Skills

Post by lylii »

Hello,

I have a question about skills. At the start, when you choose the three packs and you have to purchase the fourth with skills from another skill tree, do you lose those points forever? In other words, I know the skill system go's up to 250 for each skill, but can you max out on points able to be recieved and thus lose those points forever? I was also curious, if the choices you make for all your skills (and lets say you choose the wrong things) and later you want to get some different skills will you run out of skill points available? This might sound terribly confusing, I think I just confused myself =P but I am worried about making the wrong choices, because I didn't understand (at the time) what the best skill/ability/action etc was.

My boyfriend wants to remake his character, because he chose the wrong skills at the start, and believes that since there is a 250 cap, that there is a point (at some time) where you run out of skill points (ie xp) to earn.

I hope that makes sense :)

We will probably remake our characters to enjoy the new zone anyways but the information is still pertinent for the sake of the new character's we make.

Thanks for any responses in advance ^.^

When you get far enough along in levels, you will have all overabundance of skill points! So, no, you have not lost those points forever.

There has been an imbalance in the starter packs. If you picked magic/forage/craft, you could pick up melee for free just by fighting something. The other three skill packs costed 50 skill points to start if not picked initially. However, that imbalance is being changed in this new patch, so that all new players will get all four skill packs.

Thanks for your reply acridiel =) I do have another question.. I see people use the terms TP, HA, ummm some others too but I don't understand what they mean. HA is heavy armor or hp or hp regen? Sorry if these questions are dumb but I've seen several terms on various posts and just curious to see what they mean.

TP=Teleporter (the gadgets given to us by the Karavan and Kami that allow us to teleport from anywhere in the world to that teleporter).

HA=Heavy Armor. LA and MA are also used for Light and Medium armor.
