Skill backsliding?

Post by Milo Bottoms »

Every so often as I learn crafts I seem to "forget" how to make things? One day a certain item will there for me to craft and the next day it will be gone. It's as if I forgot how to make it over the course of a day.
This is normal?

Three possibilities:

1. Good/Bad Day system
2. You got ghosted
3. A gm lowered your skills (in case of a rule break)

Were you ghosted in the interim? Alternatively, have you been reading certain scrolls in the Druidhouse?

Ghosted means killed, btw.

Just saying.

It is, more than probably, a result of good/bad day to the dex.

Dexterity is added on as a 'bonus' to your skill amount - so if you get a "+2 dex day" it'd be equal to you skilling up twice.

So its highly recommended that you save all your 'important work' for days like those ;)
