    I would like to have a potion of unlearning either sold in the store, or used as a subscriber award. The potion when used would give us the ability to unlearn a specific skill at a time, returning 100% of experience points to the pool.

    How would this be better than the Item of Unlearning?

    This already exists as a scroll, for sale in the crown store.

    The scroll reduces the said skill to the lowest possible level immediately. My suggestion is a potion that will allow a slower progression of unlearning to a level you want. I have a couple of 140+ skills that I have determined were a complete waste of experience for the value received. I would like to reduce the level to 120 or so with full recovery of experience rather than execute full instant recovery to level 40 or so. I visualize it working just like the learning potions or food. The skill would decrease on use at a rapid skill loss to a point I am satisfied with and then I could stop it there.

    I did "AskaDev" for this also a few months ago - so maybe we'll get one :)

    Ive dropped a skill from 140/150 or more, and taken it back to 120 within a 10/15 minutes, there are a few that would be slower, but with a guidance potion and at castle atos, I dont see it being a issue TBH.

    Except for the 50% experience loss.

    [edit] Ah, now I see what you're saying. you dropped a skill and relearned it to the level you wanted. I do this all the time too.

    [edit2] What would be really nice is if it would allow you to specify what level you want to drop it to.
