I agree there's nothing inherently wrong with the system but it needs massive tweaking.
Skill levels of 50-100 were considered low in M&B1 but here they require hours of dedicated grinding and are a massive chore to increase. Companions join with skills in that range and then never budge and thus never gain levels.
Some kind of mixed XP/direct learning system would be preferable I think. Restore the XP for levels and allow some bonus points each level the player can allocate wherever they want.
