I've been working towards this one for a while. First skill to 1k! If you've seen my top 10 in past years or glanced at Tomma's plaque before 3.0 this shouldn't be a surprise!

SKILL: Rank/Percent towards next rank/Amount learning/Mindstate fraction
Outdoorsmanship: 1000 00.00% captivated (26/34)

Time Development Points: 219 Favors: 10 Deaths: 92 Departs: 9
Overall state of mind: clear
EXP HELP for more information

Also happy that I can finally train scouting/perc again (kudos to the current GM's) since they've lagged behind the past couple years; it got basically impossible for me to train them.

Now if only that 600+ ranks of Animal Lore would have been good for something besides a bonus pool ...

Your Armor pool could fill 2 empty skills to 200 ranks and one empty skill to 62 ranks.
Your Magic pool could fill 7 empty skills to 200 ranks and one empty skill to 155 ranks.
Your Survival pool could fill 85 empty skills to 200 ranks and one empty skill to 102 ranks.
Your Lore pool could fill 8 empty skills to 200 ranks and one empty skill to 176 ranks.

I hate dying too. Always happens right when all my skills are locked. And I haven't been rezzed in years so I loose all that exp. I am the exact opposite of you though, all I train is combats. Hate foraging and scouting and animal lore. My outdoorsmanship is 484 and my scouting is 585. Love evasion. But still, youre hunting apes. Your lack of deaths is what I find more impressive then 1000 in foraging. 1000 in foraging I still impressive though. Keep up the good work.

Thanks - thought I would look through my logs to see how I did deaths/circle. Not something I was specifically trying to do (to hit a number - that is more recent) just had my aversion to death in general. I kept track of skills whenever I circled, starting with 52nd looks like.

Not bad - 21 deaths the last almost 7 years. Most recent death was first day back with 3.0 changes. Went into Shalswar (I hunt Apes - should be easy, right?) and subsequently got owned by DP. Awesome. Part their special attacks (fire arrows), part newbie actions by me.

Congrats Saracus! And Asterid...you can't have left! ::sniffles:: As for my deaths in 15 years 352 deaths 95 departs.

Anyway, kudos to those who keep trying and trying and trying....
