Where is PopTart when you need him.

The major gripe with Career point gain is that people believe that you multiplier should increase with each rank. Zenith's counter to that is that your point gain for hour worked will increase for each rank that you gain.

So as you level your career you will see better point gain, regardless of health/happiness/energy at time of study.

There has been no change. You just do not fully understand the mechanics of careers.

+1,
I've lost 36k on failed tests, back to back before, most coming with B+ scores or higher :x

Lose cash,
and it puts you way back on your class average too.

Add in the fact that I've spent time training 2 ranks in weapon skills that I don't even use anymore, and all-in-all, I've had a tough road with the ol' skill system.

I know that Zen said she could just implement a 100% system, but that's basically what she's done now past lvl 5 or so..perhaps earlier. It cost me $49,000 when I tested for level 7.

Not only is that many many hours to recover, but now that's going to be a lot of cash for a simple test. Basically, it's forcing the players to go to 100% to be sure.
