One skill beyond max and another wont max out.

Hello,

I am writing this curious about something that has been bothering me on my Green Server Shaman character. Somehow or other at lvl 35 he was able to reach 76 in Hand to Hand skill despite the class cap in place of 75. I have been class capped or level capped all my skills listed other than trades/lifestyle every level as I moved up. As I reached 36 I noticed the HtoH skill had increased by one I assumed by switching weapons during combat which was weird enough but now I cannot for the life of me level cap my Bind Wound skill at 36 it would not go past 184 despite nearly 15 stacks of Bandages. Now I've reached 37 and the Bind Wound skill will not go beyond 188 despite hours of Canning to 4-8% of health and binding up to 50%. Anyone have any suggestions?

Sincerely,

Lurch

Sometimes a skill can overtrain by a point. It's just a bug, nothing can be done about it. As far as I know you can't benefit from skill points that are above your skill cap, it just looks weird.

For your Bind Wound question, it is possible you have gotten to a level range where Bind Wound is no longer training at 5 points per level.

As a simple example, many of your skills will not train at a rate of 5 points per level once you've hit the skill cap for level 50. The skill up rates past the level 50 skill cap are more like 1-3 points per level, depending on the skill.

It's been a while since I've leveled my Shaman, so I could be wrong when it comes to Bind Wound, but that is my best guess. You are already only 12 points away from the level 50 skill cap at level 37, so they may just want to drag out the final points by a few more levels.
