    I assume that is what he meant - that previously he used his level-up points toward research, but that option has now been removed. I also did the same thing, partly because research was a major pain to do any other way, and partly because there isn't anything to spend those level-up points on. Tradeskills? Its fairly cheap/easy to level up to 20 in any tradeskill. Languages? Only need one point in it to have it, then you can teach someone else who also needs the same language, so dont need to use points there either.

    But, I can also see that research shouldn't be such a good place to put all of those skillup points.

    What if SOE did something different instead? Why not jsut change the price of research skillups in either platinum cost, or level-up points used? For example, after you reach 100 skill in research, it might cost you 2 level-up points per skillup in research. Its a lot better than the current system of "none", and it also means that you need to research at least half of your skillups using components (assuming you get 5 points each time you level and you don't use the level-up points for anything but research).

      I hit 202 over the weekend on my enchanter. I did about 50 combines, but not sure how many of them had trivials over 200.

          I'll probalby dig out the mule and bags of components this weekend to do some combines. I had had skilled up to 202 earlier, back when they said it was a bug and they reset back to 200. I should go check if I have 200 or 202 now.

            there is also good news... instead of getting a skill-up for every 1 or 2 combines it will take you between 7 and 12 combines so you ll get a much better training... the spell you combine like that will have a much smaller fizzlerate.

              Spell: Lich, trivial 182
              combine Words of the Ethereal (and nothing else) in the necro research tome.

              Spell: Paralyzing Earth, trivial 182
              combine Words of Crippling Force (and nothing else) in the necro research tome.

              These words are not too uncommon, so start vendordiving.
              I have a 33 necro I have been trying to get her research up on. Lilacfrost is way behind trivialing her lvl ( not required anymore ) but a lot of the combines require 3 Words of which I will have 2 lol. This is quite a help. Thank you thank you.

              Woot to Research Cap going off!! Now my enchnater Aalinaryya can go beyond her Trivial Level!!
