I bought up all my skills to 700 while keeping herding/snooping at 0 (if you need to raise int, use spirit speak). Those two skills were pointing up while all my other skills were locked or pointing up. This is important because you don't need to gain in a skill to gain the stat and stat gains are fastest when you're low in a skill. Just make sure those two skills are pointing up At that point I just looped herd/snoop for hours on end. HOWEVER, it's apparently been changed so that you need to be at least 10.1 points in a skill to gain the stat now. I got lucky and started yesterday so I didn't have to worry about this. The change will make it slower to do stats in this manner but I'm guessing it really isn't that much of a difference. Hopefully that's clear. | ||

Well it worked for me (hit cap in 24 hours of macro) and has been working for a friend today so I'm pretty sure someone's lying to you. | ||

Indeed you do exactly what you described before but you just leave skills at 10.1 instead of 0.0 I'm going to make a new thread in our forum quoting you (and giving credit where credit is due) and then give more detailed instructions. Agreed. I'm getting solid gains. Thanks, Mazer. | ||

On a related note, has anyone been trying to gain stats the past few hours since the server went down for the patch? I'm currently dropping dex for int so I can work magery related skills. I swear I've only gained 1 int in 2 hours of spamming spirit speak using the trick whereas a few days ago I would have gotten at least 5-6 in that time. EDIT: Mooch, check out http://inporylem.com/codex/index.php?title=Portal:How_To_Play | ||

It's been very slow for me today. It's probably still the most efficient way to gain stats so if you're ever afk, it's worth running. | ||
