Rogue piercing skill?

[Kich867]

The wiki mentions this, and I vaguely recall it, but aren't rogue's supposed to be able to attain a higher piercing skill than other characters while leveling? I thought it was something like 7 skill rating per level instead of 5 like everyone else.

Does this kick in at a certain level, did I misunderstand this, or does this just not work? My piercing skill is exactly what its supposed to be (5 + (5*level)).

Max skill for piercing from 1-50 is 210 for Rogues, which is higher than normal. 200 skill cap is more common for melee character weapon skills from 1-50. That is probably what it is referring to.

My guess is it will work like the way Monks work with dual wield. You will get 5 points per level until it caps. So you should be like level 42 when you hit 210. This is better than Warriors, who would still be capped at 200 at level 42.

Ahhh hood, tyty. I interpreted that as I got more skill rating per level than others did.

Yah this is accurate, except Monks get 7 points per level in dual wield and are maxed (252) by level 37.
