Improve vs. learn

Post by Kwevin » 22 Mar 2017 02:12

I am a member of the Gladiators. In this guild, you cannot <learn> but you must <improve> your skills for some reason. I would like to see how much it would cost to max these skills so I don't have to guess at when I bring money. Under the help files, <learn is the exact same thing as <improve>, yet I cannot check the price with <improve>. I tried improve num, but it said no such skill. The only thing I could do was improve 100, but it gave me no cost. Help?

If you simply type <improve> without specifying a skill, it should show you a list of the skills you can train along with the cost.

But it has never been possible anywhere, I think, so see the cost of maximizing a skill.

Indeed. And that's where a wiki would come in handy.
With a nice, orderly list or table for each learnable skill with costs and totals for each level.

More fun in finding that on your own, if you need that information.

Unless you have all your coins minimized to platinum, you'll never really be able to carry enough to max your skills in one go anyways.

I think most people just run back and forth between the guild and a bank, hauling a ton of coins each time.
As it is, you'll have more money to spend on skills that way, since you haven't spent 10-15-20-25% on minimizing them.

Often it costs a lot... 1000+ platinum maybe double that
As a new player in a guild with a few specials expect to be grinding for the cash to increase them step by step.
So focus on raising the ones that help u earn cash faster first.

Eg trading skill, combat skills with one focus etc
So a glad may Max axe and charge and defence first
leaving two handed combat and berserk lower
appraise enemy type skills for last
