So after a hard night of drinking too many halfling stouters, I refocused and saw my alcohol tolerance had reached 200. Woohoo. /em puke in bushes. Anyway, after sobering up and drinking a few more, I found that I was still able to get drunk. I always thought that once you reached 200 you could no longer get drunk. Is there a benefit to having this skill at 200? What was I thinking. hehe - thank you

grats!
I've never heard of there being a benefit to having a high tolerance. Just like in RL, I think it just means it takes you longer to get drunk. I think it's just one of the fun things in the game, not something that is useful. That's why it isn't that common.
I have found, that the higher your tolerance, the easier it is to understand others that are drunk and for others to understand you when you have been drinking.
It would be cool if there was a quest related to it.Asil Baasil

There are some traps in LDoN that make you drunk, so 200 AT allows you to suffer lesser effects and recover quicker, I believe.
I think there may be a quest in GoD or OoW that checks AT, not sure, I DO know that begging skill is checked in one of the GoD quests (possibly Breakdown in Communication ?) so it wouldn't surprise me if an AT skill check has somewhere made it into a quest.

There is an epic mob in Dagnor's Cauldron that has a proc similar to the LDoN trap that makes you drunk. If your AT is high enough you can resist it. (Sorry, I dont remember the mobs name or which epic it is for

Prakion of the Cauldron, for the berserker epic....sort of a flying fish dragon. I only know because I ran into it when I was there for the scavenger hunt months ago.

I seem to remember something about either High language skills allowing you to understand drunk people, or high AT allowing you to understand people talking in other languages.
I think it had something about the game engine taking the speech of drunk people and changing each letter to a different random language, so if you have high skills in all languages then you can understand each letter, so the message is effectively not garbled.Comment
