Skill-Ups In Events

[Randwolf]

I think having to skill up for a handful of hours beats the extra days we used to have to spend playing the "How many incompetent people are going to be in this group and slow us down" lottery in pick up EXP groups.

Have you tried to skill-up enhancing magic, summoning skill, 2 handed weapons, guard, parry, shield? They did fix the defensive skills, a little. But, it would be nice if you could spend time in activities, like Rieves, and actually be improving your skills too.
