[Proposal] New skill gain system up to GM in the style of New Haven Quest.

Following a publication in which I expressed my opinion on the need for a change, I propose the following idea, here is the draft.

New skill gain system up to GM in the style of New Haven Quest

New NPC Grand Master Instructors to level up to GM

These new instructors, depending on your skill level, will tell you to go to certain areas of Sosaria to receive an Alacrity bonus, which can be either dungeons or less hostile places.

A random example for a fighter, from 50-70 you get the Alacrity bonus in Despise level 1. From 70-90 in Deceit, etc.

The goal is to allow the player to increase their skills in a dynamic and easy way.

---

I think this idea is compatible with the current profit system and for those who want to keep the price of Alacrity and SoT in balance, anyone who wants to be more than GM, whether Elder or Legendary, will have to go through the current gain grinding system or buy SoT/Alacrity.

This new system of dynamic instructors will particularly help all the new and returning players, some of whom lack resources that other players may have, just as it will make everything less of a grind in the first stage.

I think that if the skill system will be reworked, it will be done in NL style, mby part of the skills will be in narrative style or like repeatable town job board quests, or prodo will never see any old system upgrades, I guess.

Interesting, you explore the map while leveling on some of the most epic location from UO.

90 MAX, tho. GM is too much, imo.

But yeah, Garret NL point is a killer.
for the rework stuff.. this is what they did on DOFUS.. before it was grind by exterminating entire population of mobs.. today u still can do that.. it was shorten. They also produce an entire quest line (Main Story Quest; type of stuff) to level up even faster.

The solution to your problems; for the dev, is NL

it's not a bad idea also at 90, because at that level you can already put some jewels to cover gm and higher levels, that can make it much easier for new/returned players to get started who lack the resources for Alacrity and SoT.

the rest of the level by grinding and sacrificing as many of us have done.

I'm glad this has been better accepted, let's see what the developers think.

How about you stop fucking with skill gain and just leave it as is?

This is a proposal as a result of a post where an open question was asked.

The aim of this proposal is to benefit everyone, including you, directly in case you want to upload a new or current character that you want to modify and indirectly because the fact that this will facilitate access to new and returning players, will increase the likelihood that these new/returning players will activate subscriptions, buy add-ons, expansions and other products offered by the company, whose income is necessary to maintain both the servers and the team that manages everything.

The fact that proposals, ideas, etc. are posted does not guarantee that this will happen.
