Level-up: strange effect when allocating point to weapons

[Magraev]

I'm sure this has been put up before, but I cant see it, so I'm posting it again to make sure.

When you level up you get 10 points to put into weapons. Only it doesn't work that way. At low levels you sometimes get 2 steps increase for 1 point, and at high levels you get maybe 1-3 steps increase for all your 10 points.

This should be changed for the final version IMHO (and I'm sure it will be).

Great game btw.

Hi Magraev,

This is not a bug, it's a feature. It becomes harder to increase your proficiencies as they get higher.

armagan, put some sort of + indicator next to the skill so we know how many skill points we need please!

I paid you!

 

[Magraev]

Thanks fo the explanation Armagan. And keep up the good work.

Yeah, me too!

Seriously though, the munchkin in me would like to know how many points I need to level up in a skill so I can try to allocate rest of the points to other skills more effectively. Not a single point should be wasted!

I don't think the points put in a weapon skill without upping it by 1 are wasted at all. On the contrary, (logically) if you put one point in bows when you need 3 to get a +1 to it, when you'll fight and you would normally get another skill point, it'll just add to this one and make it 1 away from another skill point. You get my point?

That way no skill points are really wasted (I would have made it that way myself and I'm pretty sure Armagan did it that way too).

As for the feature itself of seeing how much points are needed for a +1 to a weapon skill, I personnally think it's a little bit useless since one point difference in these skills is not even 1 more damage in a hit.

By pumping weapon mastery, you can get more levels out of the points you put in. You also get points more frequently for using your skills in battle.

I took weapon mastery as the amount of points your able to allocate into each weapon proficiency. After you reach that, your still able to gain skills through combat, but when you gain weapon points, you cant allocate them.

I believe it has the other effects that i previously mentioned before. I think so at least.
