Skill Ranks and Abilities

Written by: Tydeus, the Parity

Addressed to: Everyone


Some of you (particularly Magi as all their skills have been converted)
may have noticed that abilities in your guild skills are being gained at
slightly different points within their skill ranks, and so you may have
picked up one or two abilities that you previously didn't have. This
isn't a bug, it's due to some behind-the-scenes improvements we're
making to the skill system.

Abilities should now be spread far more equally within skill ranks, for
example if you're getting new abilities at 33% and 66% of a skill rank
in a skill, you should continue to for at least most of the skill, and
you should gain a new ability at every change of skill rank. The actual
order of abilities gained does not change at all (except in the case of
new abilities, obviously), just the exact points you gain them.

I just wanted to let you all know in case those very honest of you
thought you had unfairly gained some abilities.

Penned by my hand on the 2nd of Ios, in the year 191 MA.
