New player stat gain

Post by Jorixx »

Hi all,

So I'm new to the server, played years ago like most I imagine. I'm struggling with stat gains. Being that there is no skill limits I'm unable to play skills off of each other like the old days. Also, since skill gains are so fast I'm maxing out on skills before taking full advantage of their stat benefits. The 15 minute wait between gains is severely limiting.

Any helpful ideas out there?

just afk on the dummies overnight to get stats up in a couple of days.
even if the skill is at the cap you'll still get stat gains.

Awesome skill for stat gain. It can raise all three, so just lock down the ones you want to remain stagnant and fire away from 0.0. Go grab a bladed item and get as much kindling as you can carry; then every 15 minutes, just stop what you are doing and d-click the wood till you get your gain, then go back to your gameplay.

Also, remember that you can get stat gains even if your skill is maxed. It just takes longer.

Well, stat gains are tied to skill gains and those are dependent on skill level. The higher the skill, the slower the gains. If your skill is maxed you have the slowest gains possible. Though there is no special penalty to gain speed if the skill is maxed.

Hey all, just wanted to say thanks for the replies. For the record it definitely takes longer to gain stats from a maxed out skill but regardless you do still gain.
