I made a search but didnt find anything I could understand well....So here goes my question: I read somewhere that after the patch buying your miscelaneous skills levels counts as they were major/minor, is this true?

When I need leveling up can I just buy from trainers 10 levels of a misc skill to go up or I need major/minor and how much of them, and which is the best combination between buying major/minor and misc? I hope I am not confusing you as I confuse myself asking this

Example:
longblade=major/minor
shortblade=major/minor

Heavy armor=misc
athletic=misc

I buy from a trainer 10xheavy armor and 10x athletic, do I level up getting 5x multplier in strenght/speed? Or I have to raise also longblade/shortblade for some points and whats the less points to raise in major/minor, combine with misc. to get the lev up and the 5x multiplier?

Sorry for the headache

Unless there is a patch out there I don't have that changed how the leveling system works, you need to increase major/minor skills to count towards leveling. I know you can count your misc. skills towards the multiplier, I believe twice for every type of attribute from you misc. skills. (I.E. two times each using a misc. skill to boost agility, two for strength, ect., before misc. skills stop benefiting your multipliers upon leveling.) I could be wrong but I do believe thats how the system works.

Heavy armor doesn't count towards Strength. I could be mistaken on this, but I think it's Endurance.

From my experience, if you get 10 levels in any skill or combination of skills linked to a single attribute, you get the 5x multiplier. It doesn't have anything to do with major or minor skills.

But if you raise 10 levels some of your misc skills you dont get new level..

Two nights ago, my current character got 10 levels in light armor from a trainer. Light armor's only a miscellaneous skill of mine, and my emphasized attributes are strength and willpower. After sleeping, he was offered a 5x multiplier on agility. I'm thinking that the multiplier for miscellaneous skills may have been added in a patch, and wasn't there in the initial game; hence, the confusion.

Well that then just sucks.. level from Misc skill.. lol who needs it..

Yeah, I concur. I don't remember the situation well enough to insist upon its accuracy, but I seem to recall Bethsoft's PR director telling me that under Tribunal, one of the "improvements" wa the ability to get multipliers from any skill. (This was, I think, added to a MW patch for those who didn't grab Tribunal, but I could be wrong.) I suspect this was in answer to complaints that raising attributes wasn't easy enough. Like you, I think the results lead to a kind of super-character in which you can quickly max out all attributes. It kind of makes a mockery of all the notion of customizing a character who will grow in a certain way.

Yeah right...

Well not not realy.. but quite close... anyway...

Only thing that mocks ''all the notion of customizing a character who will grow in a certain way''

Lack of real roleplay choises mock it..
