Skill-up's

[Eliseus]

I would love to have Skill Ups back, I always felt a sense of accomplishment getting some of those things to cap. Sure it was a grind and sometimes a long one at that (at least back in 75, not so bad anymore), but it still felt good (at least for me) when I saw everything in blue text.

Honestly combat/magic skills are an unnecessary time sink which just force you to spend hours upon hours hitting a cap just so that you can be at max potency with your class. Time is better spent producing content which challenges the player not content that forces you to grind on mobs to improve your skills, instead of combat/magic skill we have the materia system which can be seen as a combat/magic skill like setup but we have more control over when we gain the materia the only difference is more luck is involved in obtaining a materia you may want.

Wouldn't an unnecessary time sink be just ones opinion? I mean the entire game right now is an unnecessary time sink yet we're still playing it.

I want it back also, Combat Skills and Magic Skills were great cause it gave you something to do inbetween parties and in your free time.

This doesn't necessary mean it need to be as slow as FFXI (god id hope not) but every game should have this in some form, I think its kinda lame that my character is just a "Master" swordsman as soon as he picks it up.

Really? When my character first picked up his sword, he had 1 skill and had no chance of taking on anything more than 2 levels above him. Guess my account is bugged or something.

I agree because in FFXI, you had to gain mastery by using a weapon/shield/magic/craft. I was the jack of all trades when playing WAR on FFXI; I had all of these weapons that I tried to cap before I got my other extra Jobs unlocked (Polearm for DRG, Great Axe / Great Sword / Scythe for DRK, Sword and Shield for PLD, Axe for WAR/BST, etc.).

(Ahem. Outdated. No point as Classes are restricted to one weapon type and other skills are quested for. No benefit because skills are learned automatically with levels. It's a time-sink, without substance. I would rather they just add more quested skills/abilities.)
