Skillincreases from battles.
« Topic Start: June 26, 2012, 12:18:21 PM »
Was there a specific reason these were removed? In my opinion they did add to the game and encouraged people to fight more battles. In my first year my first character managed to achieve over 80 in leadership without visiting an academy compared to my other character on Beluaterra who never have seen a skill increase in battle in spite of fighting in two invasions since his teens, and has had to gain all his (mediocre) skills from academies and tournaments.

Indeed they have not.

It is still there but you get it very rarely.

More specifically, the odds of getting a skill increase depend on a variety of things, including your current skill, age (?), size of battle, etc.

I thought age had something to do with it, but as my character on Beluaterra  fought lots of huge and long battles  in the last invasion as a teenager and never recieved an increase I thought they had been removed entirely.

My East Island character that I started with recieved leadership skill increases in just about every battle he fought, until the point where his skill couldn't be measured at the academy, so I thought that if they hadn't been removed the odds of getting one had been lowered to the point of them being negligible.

One of my characters on East Continent gets fairly regular Leadership boosts, as does one of my characters in the Colonies.

I haven't improved my skills in a long time. My captains improved their skills but I didn't improve anything.

I seem to get more leadership boosts with archers, MI or ranged SF on normal or defensive. However I never seem to get sword fighting boosts with MI or SF (ranged or otherwise).
