Do away with puppet skill levels

[Dfoley]

Ahtos you are nothing more then a troll.

2.7 skill ups in an hour is a lot? That's about what everyone is talking about when they say the skill up rate is low.

I must be doing it wrong and should just quit the job because the mighty ahtos said so.... in his terrible english. Go post in your own language forums please.

Dude i got 2,7 skills in about 1 hour, maybe i should record it if you don´t wanna accept it. You know certain mobs give you faster skill ups than other right ? But i guess accroding to your first post this isn´t the case.

Lol?

Proof where?

Never heard of this. As far as i know, mob family doesn't matter, al that matters is the Enemies Level.

Honestly, I have no issues skilling mage pups, although the Beadeaux curse is just a time sink, set it to healer and solo, you'll get skills aplenty. NOW VE/SS after an aby party, there's an issue. In order for a non-mage job to skill they have to actually hit the target, if you are gapped by over 100 don't expect to be connecting. So, it's off to Kuftal to let your auto solo (yes, solo). He may not hit anything, but he's got the HP and eva of a 90. Eventually he should connect, but you should just be ok with going AFK (personally, I fire up netflix streaming in another window) and check back every couple minutes. Keep a bit of inv space, might as well sell what drops.

best i can say about skilling is wait for martial master to be up and then spam birds in mis, coast. its still slow but a bit faster. I wish i could show proof (lolxbox...) but i got ~12-13 skill lvls in ~7 hrs of straight play, but that was also w/ using burts.
P.S. make friends go with u, mobs will die faster but time will also fly by; making it seem ur skilling really fast... till u look at ur clock XD

Problem with that xanaduu is martial master doesnt affect your pet since it requires signet to be up.

Uhhhh, how about "No". Look, PUP like people said is a Unique job, just like any jobs with weapons and skills for enhancing your abilities such as Healing, Enfeebling, etc PUP is exactly like that. Your Automatons are your weapons and their Abilities need skill plus, what would happen to the PUPs merit system? Everything would be completely useless in the Group 1 category

there is no reason for it, you could still have the cap but when you level the puppet automatically goes to the cap.

the rate is just so bad, hours i spend upon hours skilling it up and barely see a blip. sometimes 2 hours will go by in abyessa and not see one partial skillup at all.

They need to increase the rate dramatically, all it is is a useless time sink. And i have no problem with them doing away with the need to skillup on every job, it does not break the game, all it does is take away somethign that is a pain in the ass from all the players.

there is 0 need to have to skillup.

I think it needs to stay, But i do think the rate should be increased Dramatically.
