How does the training for stat increases work??

Benihaha · 05-24-2001, 11:34 AM

Does anyone know the specifics of how long it takes for your stats to increase when you pay for training? For example; when you go to the temple, pay for the training on spirituality and then venture on, does it take X full days, one certain type of adventure? The reason I ask is that I was doing the 'Kill Rumphy' trick to get some experience for my party and it seemed like after a couple of trips back to town to sell the spoils, that certain characters were ready to train again.
Is this correct or am I imagining it???

Training Should imediately raise the skill/stat, but you must level-up again before you can train again at the same guild (you can train at others though if you're a member).

Tnanks. I guess I never looked at the stat before I trained in it. I assumed that it took awhile for the stat to actually get raised. I wanted to make the most efficient use of the time so I kept running into the guilds everytime I had a chance to see if I could train again and I couldn't find a pattern.

So does that mean that if I train for something at each guild, when I get my level I'll be able to go into each guild and pick something new to train in???

Beni - sure does!! One of the really good reasons to join as many guilds as possible - you can get lots of training!!

Only wish the game would not automatically go through ALL level ups at once - I tend to save my for when I get back to town and would sometimes have 3 levels to increase at once - but the game won't let you stop between each and go buy additional training. Ah well

Thanks for clarifying. I can hardly wait to get home and give it a try. That's going to help alot with the progression of my party. All my characters just got to where they can enter all the other guilds. I just took the stats that were rolled on the first try since I thought I'd start a new party over again. Problem is, I had so much fun that I didn't want to get rid of the characters and they're finally getting some good stats. This'll get them up to snuff in no time.

Hey! Found an unexpected glitch in my game. My Ratling (now a Samarai, also a Rogue/Bard/Assasin) took on the Leprechaun quest, got credit. Went out cruising, went back and suddenly started getting repeated credit (the Ratling, that is) every time I clicked on his face (to the tune of 5000 XP each time). Helped get my little critter (glad to have him for opening doors and trapped chests) up in level quite easily. Don't know if others have had the experience. Just thought I'd mention it.

Beni - oooo do keep us updated!!!

( I really love going into town and figuring out all the different guild trainings I can do - helps so much!)

Belle - hehehe

That is always such a FUN "undocumented feature" to discover!

LOL!
