Subject: RE: Skill Caps


however, even though our skill caps remain, as of a recent patch a couple
weeks ago, i very rarely miss notes on the high level songs now. not sure
how they went about fixing that but it is definitely fixed. i had much too
difficult a time twisting verses of victory with anything from all the
missed notes, which i no longer have. but just the increase in
effectiveness of our songs, as pure casters and priests increase their
effectiveness of spells all the way to level 50, seems appropriate. as is
said though, i can see how if they considered us hybrids, that our casting
abilities like the other hybrids should cap at 200. it would be nice,
considering our primary attributes are our songs over melee (unlike SHD,
RNG, PAL) that our caps would be in line with the pure casters and priests,
whose primary attributes are their spells.
