Sounds to me, basically you are asking to remove the 250 skills cap.
I am not sure I agree that for one person who grinds up sword master to 250 and uses it constantly should lose to another one who has mastered all melee (Due to a 'bump' in HP).
You can only use one weapon at a time and other skills may become 'rusty' over time or neglect to keep ALL your skills up. It doesn't make sense really.
I understand the desire for a reward for your hard work, but just not this way.
the 'Madness skill?' Well perhaps a better resistance to it. (Haven't looked to see if there is a jewel recipe that works against it, so I am not commenting on that yet. Otherwise perhaps better jewels can be crafted)?
So getting back to getting rid of the 250 skill cap. I think it has to end somewhere, and I'm fine with 250. Otherwise, are you going to have homins who are 750 in skills zapping Kinkoo like he was an ant? No, I don't think so. I have entertained the Idea of rewarding Rangers with a PvE 'Buff' while maybe rewarding Marauders with a PvP 'Buff,' after certain requirements are met, but I am not so sure we want to go down that road.
I am in favor of adding content where we can, but we can't change this game into another game without massive rewritting of the code, in which case, we would have to remake the game. I would be all for that, it needs perhaps a little refresh. (Imagine it in 3D?) Like ...ah nevermind, I regress.
I admit, I didn't read every post on this thread, so my comments reflect either this one or posts on part one, but I really don't like the idea of rewarding someone just because they mastered ALL melee skills against someone who only has 1 master. That person who has 1 melee master uses it all the time and has also worked up to 250 just like the other person, so they should be just as good at using it, if not better.
So, I have to say: -1
P.S. Oh sorry, after going back you are talking about focus here, I guess my post here refers more to Part 1 about giving multi masters a 'Buff' over those with only 1 master in melee or whatever. Feel free to move this post to the other one whoever can do that. :)
