Sort of the reason I thought this thread should be closed. We have the portal already. We keep bickering and it could lead to no more events at all.

I understood perfectly you're just being devil's advocate. It could replace it though, albeit a slower pace is the point. People kill monsters and get prof for weapons and charms and level at same time. Why not Skilling ! It's a suggestion bud. While it is just a bonus now, it could be implemented as a feature. What possible harm would it cause? I hear you. You don't want it. But I fail to see any argument as to why not other than "cuz" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Fishing is for getting fish.
Cooking is for doubling the fish's life/mana.
Transmuting is for getting essences and rerolling items' stats.
Glyphing is for turning items into glyphs.
Suffusencing is for boosting fish's life/mana and glyphs' durations.

These skills are NOT for leveling up, per se. Getting xp from doing these skills are just a bonus.

What possible harm could it cause? Maybe none, but that's not the point. I am simply stating the FACT that these skills are not for leveling up.
As for why I don't want it, well... the downside "could" be that there'd be far fewer groups. It may frustrate many players who don't want to skill but just find a group, but can't find any because everyone else is skilling now. That is a "slim" possibility. Whether that happens or not doesn't change the fact that I stated above.

Skilling gives experience. Always has. Skilling IS for leveling up

I think it's still very good at keeping track of all the events so we can look back at previous ones and see what transpired.

Killing monsters is not for xp, it's for proficiency. If it does both then it must be for both.

Sorry, Dan. But you’re wrong here.

Just because you gain XP from skilling does not mean that skilling was intended for leveling up.

Killing monsters is for leveling up - proficiency is just a nice add that comes with it.

Think back to before proficiency and skilling were in game. You leveled up by killing monsters - the same way you do it now.

Each action in the game has a definitive purpose, some have nice side benefits (I.e gaining proficiency from killing mobs to level up, or gaining small amounts of exp from skilling, etc...)

It seems the two of you are arguing just for the sake of it.

I think the only thing you really need to know to disprove the idea skilling is FOR leveling is the fact that without 1 monster kill per level you cant move to the next. If something was made for leveling you would be able to do it without having to go do another activity to complete the level.

leveling while skilling is only a thing because paul thinks that skillers would do it in the middle of a climb while regening so he gave them the ability to gain xp and have hp/mp regen during the skilling process. Originally there was no skilling regen.
