[quote="BLASTOISE"]Hi, I'm not sure if it's normal but I am a pure knuckle user with 58 dex and 74 knuckle skill, does this seem right? I'm nearly at the dex for kod and I can't even use mad dragon glove yet? I thought you always had the skill before the stay requirement especially with knuckles... But maybe I'm wrong? 10 dex till saw knuckle but 44 skill?! I think I will hit the dex before[/quote]

[quote="MONSTER"]All about them slows, 70 skill slow, then at 65 dex its so slow ur skill will seem fast without a slow till 100 and even then its barely slower at 100, only noticeable at 120[/quote]

[quote="QUIMM"]I found with knuckle I was always waiting on the skill, never the dex, even until rap knuckle. Mob choice will play a big part in it, but if you have the dex and are waiting on the skill it means you are levelling efficiently. Once you hit 80 skill you can start using 3rd, then your skill should pick up. [/quote]

[quote="RAVER"]Found with bow I'm waiting on dex, 124 skill at moment and 6 dex of bof [/quote]

[quote="DR3AD"]With bow I always had dex first, until BoF, then it was the other way round! [/quote]

[quote="GHOSTLORD"][quote="DR3AD"]With bow I always had dex first, until BoF, then it was the other way round! [/quote] This is how it has always been for me. For knuckle dex was always the faster. However I do think it's interesting and I too would like to know if skill was upped slight since even before this change I've had lower lvls asking me about skill lagging behind.[/quote]

[quote="YOSHIMITSU"]For knuckle I've always had more than plenty skill after MDG, just requiring the dex[/quote]

[quote="DR3AD"]For knux, I had enough dex for rap at 0 skill! Lol[/quote]

[quote="HARMONIXER"]Bump My Str has doubled my skill. So much so that I am unable to see my skill recommended swords in the armoury because its based on Str, so im not sure what my next sword should be or where to get it from. Will the skill gains be looked into in comparison to the stat gains otherwise im stuck with low tier weaps vs higher tier mobs? Same applies to staff skill vs Int[/quote]

[quote="SOLITAIRE"]I have recently found this My int is increasing really quick (nearly @ 50), but my staff skill is only 27 :( [/quote]

[quote="BLASTOISE"]I have 60 int and have only just got the skill for staff of sky lol ;([/quote]

[quote="NOTMAT"]This is all completely normal. Especially with regards to staff skill.[/quote]

[quote="BLASTOISE"]Could a game master or advisor please confirm that skills speeds was also increased with the recent update? I'm Pretty sure you're ment to have wisdom staff before you leave wraiths? At this rate I won't have it till I'm well into lich lords, I'm personally not too fussed as it's fast enough really but balance is important and like someone mentioned above the armoury is recommending me saw knuckle which I am only one dex away from but 24 skill away from ?! From a new players perspective it makes it harder for them to know what weapon is next [/quote]

From a new players perspective it makes it harder for them to know what weapon is next [/quote] Str dex int and skill requirements on armour/weapons were increased by 10% to make current content last longer which has spaced a few items out more (for example a wep requires 20 str and 40 skill, the str requirement goes up to but the skill goes up 4, this would mean a bigger gap an the skill slow at 40 meaning it take a bit longer skill wise. There is genuinely no problem with skill at all it just takes time to balance before the big 65 int dex str slow once you pass this your realise skill starting to catch at an exceptional rate if it's still off at 80+ str dex int I'd be very surprised /gand [/quote]
