I kinda like the concept of the BL leveling system, but agree on that the penalty to learning from leveling overall is too harsh. I think the concept of attribute points in incorrectly impemented since you have so few and they are essential for allowing you to keep progressing when focus points are no longer enough.
I don't need to become a 250+ master in everything to enjoy the game but after 10 in game years with 5 FP in Athletics and about 5-8 END, I'm bummed out I'm just shy over 100 Athletics, that's just ridiculous. Considering what you guys wrote above I now assume it's because I've been stupid and leveling up my other skills too quickly which then hampers my Athletics overall learning rate, ie steward which goes up as soon as I glance on it.
Tying Athletics and Riding skill increases pretty much only to actually dealing out damage is a poor mechanic though IMHO. One of the worst right now, other than that the concept is good as soon as Perks are properly implemented.
And saying you don't have difference from level 1 to 24 is not correct IMHO, the info tab on the skill shows the passive percentages on ie attack damage and draw/swing speed and even if that may feel a bit lackluster when leveling up, it makes an actual difference. It's very noticable in a tournament if you are given a weapon you are not proficient in, the swings are very slow.
To be frank though, I'm not sure if all the passive skills are actually implemented in the game, heh..
