Reallowing skill ups in campaign?

[Glacont]

I would love the idea of doing Campaigns while skilling up on the side.

They did, in the last patch. They changed it to essentially use the campaign code (any buff hits everyone in range, etc) so now it comes with the campaign problems (no skillups).

Mmhm, I guessed as much. Figures they didn't even mention that little tid-bit anywhere either, I think.

/sigh I think I'll just give up. I don't have the energy to spare any more.
Good luck~

Sooo they're enabling skillupses in WoE now, and Campaign will be next in line hmmm? ^^;

I have not re-gained my hopes, that's not it, but well...
It is a good sign more than a bad one.

I'm not sure that's actually what this post means.

Specifically, "In addition to this, we are planning to use Walk of Echoes to test out the balance of skill increase in battle-related content." really just sounds like a bad translation to me.

[Dragoy]

Yeah, I don't know...
Maybe it is just for the test-server.

This line is what I was referring to myself, from the PlayOnline site: "Also, players will be able to raise combat and magic skills in the Walk of Echoes."


Edit:

Saw it coming!

From the Test Server update performed on 10/28/2011, it will be possible to skill up in Walk of Echoes battles.

This was implemented in order to test skill increases in various other battle content. Please understand that this is not a guarantee that Walk of Echoes will receive this change in the future.

Campaign mobs aren't that high level so it wouldn't do much for 85+. Very easy to cap parry/shield/guard now with skillup food in Altep vs like 20-30 black mandies. Just need Def/VIT atmas, /BLU and Phalanx with PDT set.

i wouldnt be so sure about that especially out in xarcabard (s) and beaucedine glaicer (s) but I never see enough people out there to do campaign battles there or in Castle Zvahl (S) even now with level 90+ and I doubt the reason for that is because the mobs are too low level. Even now it might be rare but I get skilling of mobs in the 50s and 60s even at level 90 so i dont see why we wouldnt be able to if they reactivated skill ups in Campaign battles with the Allied Tags on like in Besieged battles. In general though the weaker the mob is the fewer and further between skill ups occur and that is in all areas i been in including Campaign areas while not in Campaign battles under allied tags.
