The issue here is that after 250, you literally just stop getting skill ups. I have several jobs I've been working on skilling for the past weeks. It would be fine if it took forever to skill up while doing things with a bunch of ACC added, but if I want to do reives on a job with less than 300 skill I both have to sacrifice damage AND I get no skill ups for it. I don't want them to increase the rates, but allowing skill ups in events would be nice so I don't have to spend ALL of my time logged on in old zones semi-AFKing against EP-DC mobs that couldn't kill me if I left the room. (And hell, a lot of the time, I do.)
