Release Notes - October 17, 2008
* Trainer NPC's at local blacksmiths can now retrain your weapons, by retraining a weapon you can refund all your spent skill points and allow you to re-choose your skills for that same weapon.
More like 5 months ago back in October when they allowed us to buy back our skill points, same day bosses & the lvl 20 weapons were released. Used to be able to just save skill points and unlock whatever when you level, the old fashion way.
There was a maintenance downtime that night for some sort of game update...but the only thing that was even close to that listed in the release notes wasn't until
Release Notes - October 20, 2008
* Fixed a bug with skill respec pricing.
This is sort of like the whole reduction in cannon ammo thing, it was never in the release notes, it just happened.
Well same thing here, I thought you could place your points WHEREEVER after buying them back. Unfortunately, me like most people were busy doing the lvl 20 weapons quests & hunting for bosses, rather than sit and brainstorm on where to place my skill points at after buying them back.
Only the people who brought their skill points back and redistributed them on the FIRST day the option to retrain your skills at a Trainer on Oct 17, were able to skip combos. =(
The maintenance thing that night updated the game and threw in those
Red words that said "Requires Cleave/Flourish/Gouge/etc". Ask anyone who retrained their weapons on the 1st day who remembers the
Red words not being there...
One of my friends got lucky, his cutlass is just simply maxed "Hack, Slash, Stab/Thrust"... which is as close & similar as you could possibly get to an NPC's attack where Officers/Mercs can just skip combos and go straight to their attacks randomly.
