Game Mechanics: Weapon Skill-Ups bugged?

[Galvatar]

Now that you mention it, it does seem like my alts take awhile to raise their weapon skills. I don't play a lot of melee, so I just assumed it was normal.

Because the game hates us, you see.

Playing my 17 paladin in oasis full group, continuous pulls, ran from dark blues to yellows. I was maxing my weapon skills every orange bubble, but on the other hand other skills such as bash/taunt I was raising to max by the 3rd pull into level. Other non-activated melee skills were also raising much quicker, maybe half the orange bubble before those would max.

Going to have to agree, skillups taking a painful amount of time going up.

I noticed one or two other things I thought might be bugs too. For example I died the other night and respawned with no mana.

I can also confirm that skill-ups are rarer than lottery winnings right now. Trying to keep 1hb and 2hb at max is impossible, I have both hovering around half of what they could be. I still need to add piercing into the mix, but am having a hell of a time just keeping up with the other two...

Leveling in Everquest is impossible (inb4 at this current xp rate lol).

same issue as all of the above posters on my warrior. i typically can only keep one weapon skill close to the max as i level up. and during a hell level i can sometimes get a second weapon skill close to caught up.

this is limited to weapon skills though. the other combat skills like offense, defense, dual weild, etc.. all seem to skill up fairly quickly. it is just the weapon skills that take an absurd amount of time to go up.

Coming back to EQ from a long time, now, I may just be retarded but I'm level 5 and my 1HB is still at (2) and hasn't skilled up once.. I put the 1 training point in it at the beginning, what's going on here? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Quite a few people seem to have experienced extremely slow skill-ups for weapon skills.

I can post some logs if desired.

Please take a look at this, something is definitely off. They are going up, just...slowly.

Have to agree on this. Something definetly seems out of whack.
