Subject: Re: Off-topic: Expending practice points


This semi- has to do with this topic, but i decided today to train up my
peircing... i put one point into it when i was level 1, and used it all day
today with a giant snake fang. im level 9 right now, and my skill in
piercing never went up. i fought all the normal things ive been fighting,
(Mainly goblins in runnyeye) any ideas how to raise it?
