@Berek- Question about skills (Jack of all trades or Master of all trades?)

... I was asking you a question on how "deck limit" can limit skills that don't go in your deck since you used the concept of "deck limit" as an argument to support your "it doesn't matter" statement.

You've yet to answer the question... neither did Berek answer his, for that matter.

 

why bring up innates if you know very well that they have nothing to do with the deck (excluding the deck swapping innate)? i wasnt making a statement that innates can be in a deck

deck limit prevents an archer from becoming a swordmans, a mace expert and a polearms expert at the same time.
deck limit prevents a mage from getting all the spells.
choosing heavy amor prevents you from going into the light armor tree. (ok it doesnt limit but you know what I mean, wouldnt make sense to spend exp on both)
there are many limitations already.
all I was adding was that the deck limit also limits the amount of combat glyphs you will want to train because you cant fit so much into an 8 slot bar and since cards are pulled, you will want the deck to be as small as possible.
i never mentioned innates, everyone should level innates, there is no reason why you shouldnt and there is no reason why it should be limited.

yes eventually, everyone will reach the cap of 200 in all the innates... so what? i still dont understand why its an issue other than to limit people who are already there, i cant understand why it is an issue

saying eventually everyone will have everything.... ok,... so what?! why is that an issue!?!

 

Unless you set it as an alternate and quick swap based on what you fight.

 

that is blatant and perfect example of quote mining....

 

You have it backwards: This is a thread about skills and ones ability to be a "jack of all trades". YOU brought up the idea of deck as a limiter to this, which clearly isn't the case because of passives.

If everyone can eventually have everything, why bother having choices at all?

Thing is, some people don't WANT to play jack of all trades; I certainly don't. I want to play a specialist. That can't happen if all the jacks of all trades in the game can perform just as well as I can merely because the system don't force those people to make choices.

 

i dont

the op is clearly talking about combat

if deck limit is 6, how can someone be a jack of all trades? how does a chaos/fire/ice/death/swordsman/archer/shield tactician/life/moon/sun/polearms/blunt/earth/berserker/casterstance/rogue/etc character "jack of all trades" fit everything into only 6 decks? (imho should be 3 max)

please explain how "YOU brought up the idea of deck as a limiter to this, which clearly isn't the case because of passives."

what do passives have to do with anything im talking about?

 

Do you think it is a good thing for the game if everyone in can GM every crafting skill?

Dont really know why you would ask why I would bring it up, can you clarify that? We are talking about skills, GM's and unlimited XP.

 

This post made me smile.
Keep up the good work.

Since im at work.. doesnt each tree have like 15 skills? So thats 30-45 gms lol ?

 

yes... because i am not shortsighted...

go ahead and restrict everyone from gming all the crafting skills; the only thing it will cause is for people to make separate accounts, it wont solve the issue that you think is an issue which is not an issue

 

I'll let these comments stand on their own.

Someone tell the dev's to shut down the idea of any kind of economy in the game, lets roll with full GM's in all crafting skills.
