yep. people should see it as a bonus not a god given right. which some appear to, that skills will be sold for vast profit.

i'd go further and suggest that, without a replacement in loot, not looting ESI might trigger a mass exodus as most hunters rely on them for covering losses.

new mobs shouldn't be quickly thrown together so I'd rather see well designed mobs (last set were pritty decent)

I see your point, keroberos are the mirror image of osseocollum, was nothing exciting about their introduction on the planet.(except for vigi feet)

hmmm you have a point there

And because no-one will ever accept skill decay, MA will never make skills more useful.

If your struggling with the logic, think about the reasons behind limited items ....

Like items ingame MA has a distribution of player skills in mind e.g.:
(Figures totally made up)
0.5% with a HA > level 100
5% with a HA > level 80
10% with a HA > level 60
15% with a HA > level 50
30% with a HA > level 40
40% with a HA > level 30

If this will get unbalanced MA will and HAS to nerf skills. I expect more skill nerfs to come, actualyl i think they will be a must. My guess is that with the cryegnine update there will be another skill change...

Its clear it unbalanced and stupid. No words can say it better.
Now, does this unbalance is necessary to preserve the game play or no ?
That is the question. Clear responses from MA can cut the thread and speculations.

you are wrong here... beacuse the people that started in beta (most ) have 100+ agiliy and even the most dedicated hunter would not get that in 10 years...

when MA changed the agility start level from 50 to 1 and when they and nerfed agility gain.. they alos made it so that ubers now are the people that have 70+ agility..

I am uber as well lol

But I don't think so

[Kimmi]

well the post I replyed to said that if you have 39 agility and 20k in all skills you where not uber...

and I tryed to explain that you cant compare people that started before and after the nerfs.

If you have 20k in each skills, big gratz to you vedder and denis
