Hi Guys!
So I have been running around with this little bugger on my finger. Summer 19 ring.
Normally when I get skill buffs, I don't question a good thing, and I just thank the Mindark gods for my supposed elevated progression. But seeing as this rings value is somewhat tied to these skill gain boosts it got me thinking about extracting the most value from it to get my moneys worth.
To clarify, I have not purchased this yet. I am having a lend from a very wonderful Soc member, who has given me option to buy.
So, I am aware that skill buffs work by increasing the frequency of skill gain events, not individual skill gain values, so I'll skip over that chestnut.
I have 2 questions, and for the sake of argument I will be referring to the "Blades" skill boost specifically.
1. With this ring active am I receiving a skill boost on all associated offensive skills tied to using a bladed weapon?
2. Assuming the above is true, do I have to be actively using said weapon to get these skills or can it work passively?
For example: using a blade skills perception, but I can also skill perception by wood chopping. Will my skill boost be applied? It is a skill gained by offensive use of a bladed weapon.
Oook That's about it, I hope I have explained myself properly. Any feedback or cookies will be appreciated.
Thanks.
