In regards to the rate of skill increases, we feel that there were positive effects from the adjustments made in the Feb. 2011 version update and currently have no plans to increase them further.

However, in regards to those difficult to increase skills such as guard and parry, we are planning to revamp them. The main reason why these skills are so hard to increase is due to the fact that skill increases only occur when the effect is elicited, so compared to evasion skill; the chances to increase these are lower.

With this said, we will be making adjustments so that it is possible to receive skill increases without parry or guard activation similar to evasion.

They ~doubled the base skillup rate, so he's not bullshitting about the February patch. If they actually do what he says (quickly) then it will pretty much solve the problem with these skills.

PUP skills will become the hardest ones to skill up then. Summoning Magic is kinda a *** too. They should let SMN skill up whenever the avatar melees.

Well, glad I didn't go waste time after capping it for 75 to recap it for any of the subsequent level increases.

They don't need to fix just the problem of getting skillups, but actually make it so that you can parry/guard rather than at the floor rate even on trash mobs... that would help skillups in itself
