Haggle rates

Post by Nysan » Fri May 21, 2010 1:13 am

Part potential bug, mostly question...

Whats the leveling rate on Haggle?

Haggle was added to one of my character's "Other Skills Known" list shortly after joining his faith, a very long time ago. Obviously, the skill has been used regularly since then and I have not once seen a skill increase for it. It remains at the same apprentice level that it was when it was added to the list.

Every other skill/language/trade/weapon stat is increasing normally, but not one bump for Haggle over the months/years. Does it have an ungoddly low leveling rate? Is there a conflict because it is in the "Other skills known" section? Is it bugged? What am I missing here?

Haggle *does* have an ungodly low leveling rate; your experience is shared by all. That may change soon; in fact, haggle may be folded into a different skill (or possibly eliminated completely). Its fate is not yet decided...but it's unlikely to remain as it currently is.

Ah-ha... that makes sense. Good to solve the riddle. Thanks again.

Dispite its low rate, I do enjoy its benefits. I hope future changes to it will not cause me to lose its benefits because it is not a guild/class skill. :wink:

Also, to note, skills on other skills known don't improve generally. They are often granted by equipment, or as racial abilities.

Honestly cannot recall how I gained the skill, though I know its not racial. But, I will keep that in mind.
