Subject: Bard Skill Caps


I hate to ask this question again because I know we have gone over this
topic before on the list, but we have not discussed it for a while and
people might have some new data on it.

I just made 24th a few days ago and got the "Safe Fall" skill...I trained it
up to 40 and I don't seem to be able to take it any higher, at least during
my initial trials - I fell from a high enough height to do damage to myself
over and over (about 20 times or so) until I was down to 1 bubble of XP and
it would not raise above 40.

Are we capped at 40 for Safe Fall? If so what a let-down...not much real
improvement over not having it all from what I have observed.

Does anyone on the list have any new or revised data on our Bard Skill Caps
they could share with us?
